Orwell was a little bit off on his date with 1984. It looks like it will turn out to be 2024. Don’t expect the 2024 election to be any less crooked than 2020. Anyhoo, here’s Spirit with 1984. It seems rather appropriate with the times we’re currently living in.
One of the members of Spirit, Jay Ferguson, left to form Jo Jo Gunne. He now does soundtracks, most notably the soundtrack of NCIS Los Angeles.
Great band! I’m wondering if they would have made it bigger if they had accepted the invitation to play at Woodstock instead of going on a promotional tour. I still have a single of “I Got A Line On You” that I bought on its release and a couple of their albums. I also found a copy of “Mr. Skin” that I found in a cutout bin. There were two FM stations in my area that would play underground music back in the late sixties and early seventies. One played “Nature’s Way” and the other did “Fresh Garbage”. Man, I was in Heaven……….
