Good morning. Great piece. Brought me back to listening to records in my cousin’s basement pad with his door closed. Jackson Browne, CSN&Y, The Eagles, will forever hold a place in my memory of that troubled coming-of-age time. I’ll leave with these iconic lyrics:
After the Deluge
Some of them knew pleasure
Some of them knew pain
And for some of them, it was only the moment that mattered
And on the brave and crazy wings of youth
They went flying around in the rain
And their feathers, once so fine, grew torn and tattered
And in the end they traded their tired wings
For the resignation that living brings
And exchanged love's bright and fragile glow
For the glitter and the rouge
And in a moment they were swept before the deluge
~JB
