Wow! Great story!! I have to bullet point my takeaways!!

-Saw the “Children of the sun” 45 image at the top of this post, but then had to go get my daughter, and would have to save the rest of this for later. But I listened to the song in the car. Interesting how after the break in the song with the backwards echo guitar (the only thing I remembered about the song from when I was a kid) then the tempo slows down. It was faster when the guitar was soloing to all the crazy smoky sizzling effects behind it! A very interesting musical choice! If you haven’t seen season 2 of Fargo, then I won’t say any more!!

-Love the architectural tour of downtown Chicago. I’ve been a few times! Love the temple effect to cover a water tower!

-Loved paying 50 cents for a 45. And that moment of discovery “They have that song!” Of course a couple of mine from when I was a kid was That Beatles medley “The Stars on 45” (I’m embarrassed to say my foray into the Beatles). Oh and Moon (Frank) Zappa’s “Valley Girl” ( sad to have later found out that it was probably her only way to connect with her father!)

-Getting a book plus a ton of good music to warm up to after whole body being infused with cold after being outdoors for most of the day. Rest of the day settled!

-Zig-Zag wandering! Ha ha! Nice one!

-I hope I have a day exactly like this TODAY!
