Welcome to Birthday Thursdays here in The Rhythm Section. Each week I will feature someone from the world of music whose birthday falls on that day. There won’t be any chit chat from me, no facts and figures – just some great tunes (and an occasional surprise). Check it out right here every Thursday and enjoy the music.
Happy Birthday to Patrick Simmons
Born October 19, 1948 in Aberdeen, Washington

Such a great band!

I love this song to bits!! I remember driving my first car, not driving anywhere in particular, but just because I love to drive, and my little car had the best damned speakers I’d ever heard. Oh thank you for this song – it brings back some unbelievably cherished memories.

Isn’t music wonderful that way? More than anything, I think hearing an old song brings back so many precious memories. So glad this was one of those songs, sis! Enjoy listening to it in your new set of wheels!
