This reminds me of the Yesterday movie that came out last year, Robert Carlyle portrayed an aged /John Lennon in a scene from the movie, had John lived, at least in this movie plot, he did… ?

Howdy there Jeff and welcome to  here at the MLT Club, Yeppers as both Howard & Jung mentioned they’ve tackled with utmost superb success, their cover renditions of 2 Kinks songs… Look forward to seeing more future postings  of yours. ?

[Jacki Hopper]

I would love them to tackle both “Paperback Writer” & “Long and Winding Road”…. Perhaps a few off Dave Mason & Cass Elliot album,  Paul McC’s ” My Love”, “Band On the Run”… Maybe even tackle the “Rock On” song (name who originally sang this one escapes my mind just now)… The infinite possibilities…. ??????

I have in my possession still… 51 yrs later, though I’m assuming the one childhood toy is far older than 51 yrs as it was a hand me down from my 2 older brothers while the other childhood toy was mine, since I was a baby… I have other childhood toys I’ve kept too but these 2 I’m mentioning in particular stand out….and a 3rd keeper that I cherish and still own of mine…

Yurtle The Turtle(Dr. Seuss) with drawstring that says about 6 different sayings, one saying per drawstring pull… I notoriously one day in a temper rage for whatever reason, lol… Tore off one arm of it… Lol… One Hand Yurtle Turtle….

The second is a wee pink plush stuffed toy kitten whose one eye/ear worn off… I carried around that as much as Yurtle and the Fisher Price Telephone….

Third up is my prized round shaped music box thing which you wound up from bottom of it, plays a a carousel type song you ‘d hear on a merry-go-round /carousel, with that Twinkle sound lullaby effect…. I have other assortments of childhood keepsakes I kept that were mine only and hand me downs from my 2 older bros. ?

Life has many portals and pathways and etc…. It’s more than just a definition… It’s an ongoing poem that can change verses, add to or take away, you can rhyme and be in sync or go all over, It’s how one lives and attitude towards and how one has chosen to be…. It’s constantly evolving and open…. No right or wrong, Be mindful, Tuneful, creative, content, spirited, soulful, observe and be kind, treat others as you ‘d like to be…. Embrace and Eminate, Inspire, Be True To One’s self Being ???☮️

Hi….. A friendly tip: This would be perfect to repost as well over on their  store pages where you can write a review under the CD, I think you should consider resharing/reposting (copy/past) this post over there as well… A great review you offered up! ?

Ahhh… Lisa and I are on same thinking path. Sort of… Lol… I was wondering when you would mention  harp and lap steel guitar… I’ve been hoping that one day you would mention your quest to tackle these 2 instruments… Thanks to  the question being asked… (Wish I’d of thought to ask before, just never got around to it, someone has beat me to it… Lol) A former Canadian musician who has passed on for awhile but was blind from an early played guitar on his lap… Jeff Healey… I saw him only once live…. Glad I did… Jeff hailed from Toronto, Ontario Canada

Another local Ottawa blind guitarist of interest whom I’ve also seen once live but still alive and well, has his own YouTube channel is Luke Haneman?????… I would love to try a harp sometime… I enjoy seeing a group of local young adults play from a Harp school that performs yearly at a New Year’s Eve No Alcohol Family Event that takes place closeby to my place each year… If only… In my dreams I would be playing the harp.. Being of Irish heritage… Well, one appreciates the harp???

Ahhh… The Hair-larious Hair Raising Poem has arrived :

“MLTBuzz Hair Groovy”

Tweak and Dye

Wet then dry

Curly or Straight

Braiding and Twisting

Hair strands even cooperating and listening

Long ago Mona and Lisa

Their hair were similar and fairly alike

Then around ten

Independence struck then

A little

With an allowance of a colour streak

How sleek and cool

They loved it

No fool

As they got older

And grew up more

Somehow their current look of red and yellow

Took on its own folklore

Yet again the Hair story takes on another chapter

Growing longer

Bangs or not

Darker hues sneaking in by alot

Don’t be distraught

It varies and changes alot

Could make easily

For their own little movie

“The History of Their Hair Horizon”

Perhaps keep your eyes open and upon on

Wouldn’t it be quite the doozy?!

MLTBuzz Hair Groovy…

I just celebrated turning 51….!!!!Tes MLT music, quite therapeutic indeed, I highly advise/reccomend daily doses of?????

[Jacki Hopper]

If ever I’d have an opportunity to collaborate if I were a musician, I’d gladly do the lyrical aspect of it… Well, perhaps help figure out the tune out loud by humming it or singing, as I can’t hardly read/make sense of music sheets with all notes, etc… And play tambourine as I do have some rhythm ingrained sense of… ???????️???️

[Jacki Hopper]

It’s pure Poetical to me that song amongst all their other originals ????????️

[Jacki Hopper]

Oh yes… Forgot John Bonham…. Whoops….
