Sorry for the slight delay. It's been a hectic week. #186 on #The500Blog is "Fresh" from Sly and the Family Stone (1973) bit.ly/500fresh I was surprised to recognize two songs from this record. I talk about my natural love of the "funk". Dig it!

Wreathed in smoke in Lebanon We burn the midnight oil The fragrance of Afghanistan Rewards a long day’s toil Pulling into Kathmandu Smoke rings fill the air Perfumed by a Nepal night The express gets you there… #RipNeilPeart ‘Evening #RushFamily 🌬️

He’s got a road map of Jupiter A radar fix on the stars All along the highway She’s got a liquid crystal compass A picture book of the river Under the Sahara… …We’re only at home When we’re on the run On the run… #RipNeilPeart Happy WW #RushFamily

There are those who think that Life has nothing left to chance A host of holy horrors To direct our aimless dance A planet of playthings We dance on the strings Of powers we cannot perceive… …I will choose a path that’s clear… #RipNeilPeart Happy Monday #RushFamily 💥

Driving away into the east And into the past History recedes in my rear view mirror Carried on a wave of music Down a desert road Memory humming at the heart of a factory town All my life I’ve been Workin’ Them Angels overtime… #RipNeilPeart Happy Lifeson Day #RushFamily
