1001 Albums Summary

Groooovy. This album reminds me of the summer after I graduated high school - my whimsy was at its absolute PEAK. Not a care in the god damn world. Had just received a bright yellow 73 VW bug as a graduation present that I could barely get out of the driveway. Would shove way too many friends in there blasting a Bluetooth speaker and that thing would shake so hard our teeth would clatter before stalling out in a Main Street intersection and all of us had to hop out to push it. When it shit the bed a mere few weeks later, I didn’t even care because I had my red beach cruiser with the velvet cheetah print seat and handlebars that I rode everywhere anyway. Lots of late night giggling under stars. Life was good. Keys were black.

Those iconic temptations baselines - NAME ANY ARTIST TODAY THAT EVOKES THE SAME EMOTIONS???

Drugs.

Those damn hippies weren’t ready. RIP King.
