Help! by...really? I have to tell you who did that one?

In My Life... by see above.

Here There And Everywhere... by see above.

So Far Away... by Carole King.

Eighteen... by Alice Cooper.



My first album comes with a story:

My dad had an appointment with a retina specialist in Boston and took me along.

My job was to help him drive home to CT during the rush hour with dilated pupils.

Because I was only thirteen that task was limited to yelling "RED LIGHT! and LOOK OUT!"

Yes, we made it home alive and I had a new LP.

While dad was getting his eyes inspected with a 3 million candle power searchlight I wandered the streets of Boston looking for a record store.

Finding the record store was not quite as hard as finding my way back to the doctor's office but I made it.

I surfed the record racks looking for an album with the latest hit song from T-Rex titled "Get It On."

I found what I thought was it but noticed that there was no playlist on the album's exterior.

Wanting to be sure before parting with my 99 cents, I opened the record's sleeve for a peek inside.

At that very moment a voice from behind gruffly said "I suppose you will be buying that one!"

"Of course!" I responded" as I brought it to the register.

99 cents plus tax later, I was the proud owner of an album that not only did not contain "Get It On" but one that was so uninteresting that I've forgotten its name.
