That was exactly what I'd hoped for...thanks so much Peach. I was getting goosebumps as I read it. I always get goosebumps when I hear Jimi do that version...it sounds so very sad to me..as if he's twisting the tune to reflect the nature of all the feelings that were against the dying and killing...BUT it is the StarSpangledBanner..and I think it's one of the greatest things he ever did..probably THE best. I can just feel the pain with each note. ALthough he was viewed in a certain light by the establishment..he was an American..I great American..and it's his song as much as anyone who ever sang, read or recorded it. That was really neat Peach....I can just imagine the excitement of cracking open the new "Sgt. Pepper" and sitting in solemn quiet as the disk unfolds. That one has everything..great POP...great rock...great everything! I wonder if "When I'm Sixty-Four" will actually be realized. For some reason that thought crossed my mind on Friday. I bet when "A Day in the Life" finished up you guys were just speechless..I mean..jeeez........has there ever been anything like it since? I'd say "No" I'd love to hear more whenever the mood strikes you Any Dylan remarks and remembrances would certainly be special for myself and a few others. I've taken the liberty to post this really cool picture of Peach and her friends from the day...I hope it's OK :) captaink.home.texas.net thanks again..I owe you a big one don't ever think that you didn't change the world..cause you did...all of you did "I'd Love to Turn You On........."

Peach, Thanks for writing that, it was beautiful. A great writer is someone who succeeds in conveying the emotion and feeling of the moment. You did exactly that in your post. I first heard Sgt. Pepper when I was 8 years old. We didn't burn incense -- Mom would have gotten upset <g> -- and we actually didn't know it was so different from what had come before, because we didn't know what had come before. We knew it was great though, even at that age. Did you change the world? Yes, in a lot of ways. One of the important ways that the world changes is that its children accept as a given what the generations before debated and questioned. Musically, and in a lot of other ways, your generation left Lost1 and I a music and a way of thought and life that we accepted and embraced. Without those changes, God knows what we would be listening to and believing. <g> Hope you are recovering from the flood ok. I remember how awful that can be. OMD Thanks again.
