At the Speed of Sound





At the Speed of Sound

Smells associated with sounds,
events with songs,
The Mamas and the Papas,
James Taylor and Mud Slide Slim,
Elton John and Yellow Brick Road,
Goats Head Soup

the Rolling Stones...

"Coming down again
Sky fall down again."

(saxophone, piano and drums
in the background...fade)

"Where are all my friends?
Sky fall down again."

"All my times been spent
coming down again."

Lyrics as time machines.
I set the dials
for a time in the seventies
when and where
record stores with
album covers still existed.
a lost art form.
