A Thought That Occurred To Me Today, Even Though It Probably Shouldn't Have

It'll be a long, long time before any classic rock station ever again plays Led Zeppelin's "When the Levee Breaks."

I think that I'm going to have to find a new song that I can call my favorite...

Relisten to Randy Newman classic "Louisiana 1927" or his "Dixie Flyer". He is the voice of the South and has not ben more on target.

Unfortunately, radio stations across Canada are reacting in a similar manner. The Tragically Hip's New Orleans is Sinking has been yanked from radio play across the country. I attach one of the many links documenting the situation.

The worst song choice ever?? The morning after the hurricane, I turned on my radio, and there were the Scorpions..."Rock Me Like a Hurricane..."

For shame...
