And getting there by train (Mr B and younger daughter M took this trip during their visit in July '06).

Alas, so no Tony Bennett fan.
It appears you understand me all wrongo. Rocko.
I'll be back (again quoting the smoker)
My dear, you've not posted any songs to get a feel from. I know the city, just not the artist.

Another huge influence on me as a kid -- the first big city I ever visited.

My views on what to do re NO are different than most, and you and I could have a goodly spat about that, JPB.... however, I get the fixing and have some links on new stuff on that, once I get my architectural self in gear re posting various items.

First song of Harry's I really liked. Turned on to him by a teacher in 7th grade.
Here's another Arizona place ...
Carefree Highway
That's a start -

Never figured you for a Bob Fosse musical fan, schist head.

Truth is, I'm an LA girl...
the Troubadour, the Lighthouse, venues in Hollywood, with jazz more than rock, like wherever I saw Doc Watson, in west Hollywood, I think.
I did like Janis, and a friend did know her, though, of course, so what.
I was never part of a scene.
I just react, say, when I see fifties or sixties threads. Like it was all one fast year. Not that this thread is, I'm just beefing generally.
As for my music, I'll post it when I feel like it.
Does that mean I don't get to respond?

Well thanks for the invite, osso. I've been considering joining you all. We'll see.
People say Albuquerque is similar to El Paso. I've never been, though. When I go to New Mexico it's usually to Ruidoso, Cloudcroft and the Lincoln National Forest.
Infrablue, I'd definitely like to meet you.
I hope you can make it up here that week, and if not, I'd like to meet you another time. Better, though, to meet a whole batch of us idiots...
IB, ABQ is heaven compared to El Pass.
Join in, you'll have fun...
And only in NM is there Roswell

Hey, when I was four and five, my father was, off and on, in Roswell. (I could speak to all that, not now.) Maybe even I was , as I kept hearing about some horrible train trip for my mother with, aaack, me. Maybe, in fact, I caused whatever is supposed to have happened in Roswell.
(Infra, please consider meeting us.)
that's every old man in the history of my family... hopefully it'll be me too...
