Over the Hedge by T Lewis and Michael Fry for October 17, 2020

Any turtle who digs ELP is alright in my book.

And my millennial mind knows that song more from Nickelback’s cover.

And I’m sure everyone here knows the original, distinctly-not-allowable-in-2020 name for the box the music is coming from. And if you don’t, tough. You ain’t gonna hear it from me.

Whee! We’re back in mom’s basement!

Back to my high school days.

Verne Thumb’s up on the Dark Side Of The Moon Poster ! Must admit I did enjoy the Black Light Posters … In the day almost every “Party” room had them ;-) The lads will have to give their new dwelling a name ….

That they still make both of those things is telling….

They forgot strobe lights for their game of catch.

Those were the days, my friends

We thought they’d never end…

1973…the year I graduated high school and enlisted in the Marine Corps. Hard to believe that that was 47 years ago!

The effect won’t be complete, though, without a psychedelic rotating shade lamp. Oh … and you’ve gotta have incense, too. You need that to mask the other smells.

Flashbacks of burnt orange and pea soup green, together…arrgh!

Now that’s a swinging bachelor pad.

Works for me.

It was a very good year.

Music-wise, Verne gets the win here.

Pretty good year.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.

I recognize all but the center poster….help me out.

Is that a H.R. Giger poster I see?

Nothin’ wrong with a little Brain Salad Surgery now and then!

Ahhhh….1973. Life was going good. Then the oil embargo!!! Gas prices shot up to over 50 cents a gallon!!! I was still in the Army cold soaking in Alaska. XD

Do people still say “groovy”? Hmm. Apparently turtles still do.

Verne is way cooler than he gets credit for.

Where is George?

What has happened to George?!

Remember listening to live ELP on my boom box w/ headphones. Would blow my mind away!!!

This from a raccoon who got recorded singing “In-a-Gadda-da-Vida” (1968). Granted, that was back in the ’90s….

Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends…
