Songs That We Can All Relate To Featuring Walk A Mile In My Shoes Performed By Joe South

Joe South is famous for many classic hits but this song is one everybody can relate to and on their level. That riviting hit will outlive me. This message is solid and well worth hearing.

Ladies - Never Wait For Love - Unless? Here's Diana Ross and Gettin' Ready For Love

Diana Ross and Her Motown Anthology presents the look of love. Love songs are very subjective and Diana pours her soul into her music. Hot stuff.

Happy Birthday Mark Lindsay (Original Lead Singer For The Famous Rock Group - Paul Revere & The Raiders)

This Page is a work in progress: Please check back for lots of updates.

Mark Lindsay is having a grand Birthday today. Lindsay made Paul Revere & The Raiders a household name with a number of hits and later a solo career as well. He just released his memoir (on his web) and has never been busier. Mark is on tour and sounds great.

I may add some personal stories and pictures (with Mark) later and now I'm going to post a few hits that he made famous and touched with his perfect voice.

When I was young, the tomboys told me Mark just drove them crazy. The songs listed below are just a few reasons why.

Song comments coming soon as well as more hyperlinks to connect with Mark. Links can always change or expire on the Internet so dont' wait too long to enjoy your song. Please notify me if a change or any correction is needed. Thanks.

Love Songs with Bill Vol. 1 No. 9 Featuring I'll Always Love My Mama (Part1) Performed by The Intruders

Everyone has a favorite song about their Mom. This Intruders hit is one of mine. It's never too late to tell your Mom that you lover her. If you have to call - please pick up that phone because someday that phone won't pick up.

Being a Mom is the hardest job in the world and every day is an opportunity to appreciate your Mom.

Note: This is the hit version of this song. There are many versions and all are good. This one is short and sweet.

More info on the Intruders can be found here.  

Love Songs with Bill: Vol. 1 No. 2 Featuring I Love You by Donna Summer!!!

I Love You performed by Donna Summer sums it all up. Two people in love, three words that make sense and this writer who danced all night to music with women who had more energy than you could imagine. The disco ball would stop by the late seventies but the memories would play on.

Disco provided such an incredible venue to meet that right someone in the right place. Donna Summer continues to record today. 

Rose Colored Glass Is Mary Owens With Larry Meletio, Bob Caldwell And Bill Tillman. They Scored A Hit With Can't Find The Time In 1971

Rose Colored Glass scored the biggest hit version (and there are many) of a song I love so much. It's called 'Can't Find The Time' and was a heavy hit in 1971.

This favorite can be heard on YouTube as well as their follow up 'If It's Alright With You'.

It's on CD as well and I'm telling you this music is unforgettable.

Thank you Rose Colored Glass and thanks for singing such sweet love songs.

Endless Sleep With Rose Colored Glass Peforming Can't Find The Time

I can't find the time to tell you how much I love this song and now you can hear it on YouTube as of today.

It's hot and dripping with love. I always sleep better with the right music and I can't rate Rose Colored Glass high enough.

Danielle I love you and dedicate that to you. I can always find the time to tell you what a super soul mate you are to me.
