| Paul Rodgers. For example: A 1957 Coasters song, top 20 US in 1976, Top 10 Canada, probably why this 45 was in heavy rotation on our local station. It seemed an enigma in recollect, as it took a bit to recall this, and by whom. When realized with familiar lyrics that once inspired, mystery revealed the man behind it all. Solemnly, I recall the sonorous voice I oft attempted to mimic. Now realize Rodgers’ influences, as the following video intones my growing beliefs. Sans anything but narrator, video would be better served with soundbites or just abbreviation. Still does well to documentment a man who knew what he wanted and went about it the best possible way. To be enlightened so young, it is good… A poem in response to the Beatles’ “For No One” got me here. From the album Revolver with “Got To Get You Into My Life” came rumblings of the old song “Young Blood” with no luck even in Wikipedia link. I hung in to find his live performance a decade ago. Slower, but as solid as the original without a technical flaw in that familiar voice, he was nailing every note. I didn’t know this was the first band Led Zeppelin backed. Although, a no brainer after his first band Free blew up in the US with “Alright Now” which I’ve sung into oblivion. Congratulations, Paul Rodgers, for everything that made you and your bands Free and The Firm so memorable. 6.4.25 Inspired to rock on and finish my sound and writer’s studio, for no other reason than do what comes natural…with tiny labors of love…lyrics. ~ BK Compton Absence Of Wavelength/Life’s Little Interruptions/Antithetical Jottings Wikipedia page pending.  I just liked the alliteration.
