My 'Viking Hunter' High Adventure Alternate History Series is FREE, ALL 3 volumes, at most ebook retailers including Ibooks, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and more.

In Vol 2 the weapons come out in a winner take all war on two fronts.

Vol 3 opens with the rigged murder trial of the villain in a Viking Court under Viking law to set the stage for the hero's own murder trial.

Some birthdays today:

Roger Miller:

Something different from Roger, of course, I'd say his biggest hit was "King of the Road", I'm partial to "England swings like a pendulum do", maybe I'm missing a few others.

Ricky Van Shelton:


More later.

The birthday lists sometimes list foreigners, I found this Romanian singer today, decked out in regional outfits, looks fine to me.

Hate to break it to you but Stephen Stills didn't write "Marrakesh Express," Graham Nash did. (It was the Hollies' rejection of
the song that finally prompted Nash to leave that group and hook up formally with Stills and David Crosby.)

Some more of the better of Stephen Stills . . .

(Stills was invited to play on the second day's sessions for Super Session after Mike Bloomfield, the original collaborator,

Never claimed that he did...was merely posting a CS&N song...

It was just a song being posted, no big deal.

I've met people who really like his Manassas album, I had his live solo album which this one is not from of course.

Stephen Stills played at Havana Jam, cerca 1979. 2 albums were released of the various artists who played in Cuba back in those days. He incorporated a Latin beat in a few of his songs., imho. "Carry On" might be an example with that interlude.

@TomSea
I'm one of them. I still remember thinking at the time that Stills should have stayed with
Manassas and forgotten Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, particularly with Neil Young doing
better musically with his own solo career, because Manassas based on this album had
something very solid to offer.

Then, they made the second album. It changed my mind completely---they should have
quit while they were ahead. (I wonder if it changed the mind of Rolling Stones
bassist Bill Wyman---after hearing the first album and co-writing one song with Stills,
he said he would have quit the Rolling Stones to join them.)

The Beatles are a landmark group, still, some of these artistic tastes seem to exemplify the musical snobbery, Rolling Stone, the  magazine,  is or was known for. A lot of us can take it or leave it per those tastes.

I saw that with the Climax Blues band and then, looked for it and couldn't find the entry on the web pages, so I ended up skpping that. Glad that got posted, I didn't realize they were a British band.
