Another Hoyt Axton I always liked was 3 dog night's "Never been to Spain", so groovy.....

Yes!  That is another of his that is so unforgettable.  Yes the formative years indeed!

Did you know that Hoyt Axton played the role of the father in the movie, "Gremlins"?

It seemed like through the 60's, 70's and 80's he was popping up on TV all the time, either acting or singing.  A busy man!

Never Been to Spain (3 Dog Night), The No-No Song (Ringo) and The Pusher (Steppenwolf) were all his. His momma co-wrote Heartbreak Hotel(Elvis) - good song writing genes... Now that you got me on Steppenwolf - probably my favorite was...........

I always loved this song - in the 1970's I used to drive from my mom's house in Toledo and listen to this album on my way back to Cleveland for my day job. Particularly wonderful listening in the dark..................

That was a standout tune on The Joker album.  I understand the title track got the airplay but this one should have gotten more as it was so smooth.  And yes what a bass line!

I remember working at a K Mart type store on Halloween and it was raining and the store closed at 9:30 - I clocked out and bought this album. Ran the 2 blocks in the rain and fell once and remember putting this album on the turntable and was so happy. I listened to a Detroit station - WABX-FM in Detroit (I lived in Toledo) and they played FULL sides of this album. What a joy - what a loving and joyful memory.................

That's such a great album, and more than 50 years later it stands the test of time ? Favorite has to be "Ramble on", the JPJ bass line is just awesome, the phrasing....

 

It was interesting reading this backstory to WABX on Wikipedia, they called it "progressive radio" in that article. 

 

WABX - Wikipedia

 

In LA it was KMET and KPPC back in the day

 

KMET (FM) - Wikipedia

 

Personality Jim Ladd from KMET is currently hosting "Deep Tracks" on Sirius ch 27 in the afternoons, playing the same eclectic mixes , its the closet thing to "progressive" radio you can find today, I'm still a regular listener.

Good luck to Betty on her walkabout - she sparked a memory about Delaney and Bonnie - I saw them at U of Toledo - too bad Clapton, Harrison and Mason weren't there but they were so good.............

Lush retro home recording by one of my music mentors, Gregory Scott. If you like fat squelchy late-night seventies-inspired torch songs, this is for you. Amazing work! And the video is just as beautiful.

Saw Dave when I lived in Claifornia - at the Coachhouse - I think it was in Lacuna Beach or maybe San Juan Capistano....

TOGETHER has always been my favorite word. Every time I spell it, I say to myself: To-get-HER, because I've always wanted to be HER.

 

Today I found this video: TOGETHER ????????????

I'm a huge fan of this group (Aqua), but they have one song I always found difficult to listen to...Until now...

 

 

Given my mom's unique brand of spirituality (she's in hospice care right now), these lyrics are all the more special than ever.

 

I love you!?

      No luck there, really. She's getting a signing bonus plus a little extra that I don't think would cover much in the way of the move, but it is something!   Oh my! I am glad to hear you're not passing anymore blood. I hope they figure it out soon! How distressing!   @April Marie @KymmieL @Mirrabooka @Willow @Justine76, thank you for the kind words and thoughts! We told our best friends last night. There were many tears. Now it's all about the work: selling the house (my wife's friend's son said he may want to buy it direct!), a job (a former employee of mine wants to bring me over to his company--and they're based outside of Tacoma!), and moving (just started going through what we don't want bring and donating things). So things have kicked off.   I'm not so sure of the job, it would be good to work with my former employee (he's great) but I fear the culture may not be super welcoming to someone like me--and the guy doesn't know I'm trans in any way. But I'll give it a shot as my authentic self and see what happens!

      @LadypcnjI'm sorry. I know the feeling my mom thinks I'm going through a phase too although I didn't come out till April 17, 2023, so it was later in life. I was in denial majority of my life. I would love to hear more about this if you are comfortable sharing more of it.

      I love fashion. I have over 100 dresses and 74 pairs of shoes. My walk-in closet is full of other clothes as well. I'm getting more shorts soon. SHEIN is awesome for quality and price. Just when you get a leather coat from them it's just the shell not the liner. Most of my shoes are from Torrid because I wear size 13 women's.

      Unfortunately Oklahoma is about as bad as Texas but definitely not as bad as Florida. Especially as a minor! 
    • Ashley0616
      I'm sorry @Ladypcnj I can only sympathize with you on that. Therapist on the other hand is crazy. I have had 16 in 10 years. It sucks having to have to go over things. I will say though after 6 therapists I didn't have to explain my history they simply read the history. 
    • Ashley0616
      I followed you and will give you my advice when I can. It has happened to me a lot too. If you want to you can always message me and I'll get back to you ASAP. I understand your concerns.

      I don't use it.   One of my daughters gave me a little to experiment with, but I haven't.  My youngest tried to put some on me once, but I din't like it.  The light was pretty bad admittedly. My ex didn't use it, and my daughters didn't use it much either when they were still at home.  (If so it was very subtle) And I don't often notice it on women my age (mid 70's)   I shave every day.  But my beard is not heavy, and essentially grey, so it's not real noticeable unless you get close with good light.  I was starting to look into electrolysis, but the pandemic hit, and I just kinda dropped it.   Sometimes I do wonder about it though.

      It's something I'm just learning but I find I actually enjoy the 'craft' of it in addition to how it makes me look. Even after a fresh shave, I have a mild 5'clock shadow. For me, the primary use of makeup is to get rid of that. I'll start with the orange concealer over facial hair areas and a bit under my eyes. Liquid foundation over that and light concealer used judiciously over that (still dialing that part in). Then just a tad of powder to bring color back in certain places. There are a number of Youtube tutorials on that layering process.    I'll also pencil in my eyebrows a bit since they're blonde and otherwise not very visible. Sometimes I'll get adventurous and give mascara a try but that's a delicate skill and usually I mess it up. I don't particularly like lipstick, but just ordered a 'lip pencil' to experiment with. Hoping for a more subtle effect.

      Sunday is my weekly ablution day - all of the parts that need occasional shaving get their required attention. The weather is rainy and cool today so after the ablutions and shower, I put on blue jeans, a gray t-shirt and a black front-zip hoodie along with gray sneakers.   And, I did put on make-up, not to impress anyone but just to feel as if I'm looking my best....as good as that can be given this woman is now 69 years old.

      There are lots of us here willing to offer support, ideas, a shoulder or just a smile. Working with your therapist and finding your true self can be difficult process...but it will also be filled with wonder and joy as you discover that person who's been waiting inside you to be found.   Just know that you are not alone.
