Where were you in *72?

Am sitting here on the back porch (see my media) listening to the radio and enjoying the great weather. Just got through with a few hours of chores, having a cold beer & watching clouds. The DJ just introduced The Doobie Brothers song *Listen to the Music* and noted it came out in the summer of 1972. It made me remember working at the motorcycle shop that year and racing every chance I got. The Hodaka Super Rat 100 I rode was not competitive but taught me that technique and perseverance could get me on the podium anyway. That year & those that followed allowed me to learn. often the hard way . about the trials & tribulations of life. Anyone else care to comment about *72 or their formative years?

Mc. .. you mention the Jackson 5; I remember all the cutie girls ( beauty queens are far as this nerd thought) running around singing * Rockin Robin * and swinging there hips and arms. It was like a fun side show for them but I did enjoy the scenery!! =)

They did make the girls swoon and we were trying to mimic their dance moves so that the girls would swoon over us. It didnt work Maybe it was the singing :-?

It seems we remember more from '72 than we remember from 2020 or 2021 !! It was an important year for sure. The car sitting in our garage right now is the same car I drove in '72 !! Sure would nice to have known then what we know now.

Getting my ass blistered for leaving the yard. Just like shampoo rinse and repeat. Get heated up by dad the next day again. Doobie Brothers playing on the radio for sure and dad yelling to turn that noise down.
Gee he was not so much fun come to think about it! Hey it all worked out for #2 son, he is a professional touring rock drummer and I am the one that set him up at a very early age with my large PA equipment.
Guess I am a bit more fun !

Rock on!!! And enjoy it while your at it. Get in your truck, put on some good tunes and jam .. I had more fun doing that than just about anything.

Sure would nice to have known then what we know now.Yes. As a friend said yesterday - " We can't remember what just happened but we can from years ago".

Please don't ask me what we were talking about for them to say that!

I remember watching those tragic events of the Olympics unfold on live TV at work. As a direct result of the botched rescue attempt, the GSG-9 was formed.
