It’s my birthday weekend, so I think some celebratory music should be in order.
I’ll be turning 58, which means I’ll only be able to wear this t-shirt for another two years.
At which point I’l either have to ….
a) get a new one that says “…..I’m in my 60’s”
or
b) I’ll have to actually start acting my age.
I think we can all confidently agree on which one I’ll be going with.
Strangeways "Sugar Sugar" from Powerpop! (1978)
Chuck Prophet "Bobby Fuller Died for Your Sins" from Bobby Fuller Died for Your Sins (2017)
Ronnie Spector...
