5-5-7-9. The first two are mediocre (to me) The video of “Pied Piper” is a 5 but I have the 45 and it’s a 7 on vinyl.
Dusty is a national treasure.

John Ford had bad taste in music. Gene Pitney’s The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance would’ve only enhanced the film experience. Oh, wait. 5.5. Maybe I have bad taste in music.

Even if I understand why it happened, it still makes me stop and gawk at how Bryan Macgregor’s reading of “Americans”, (and the original by its author Gordon Sinclair) both made the Top 40. The former in the Top 10. Just…such an odd chart anomaly.
