Footnotes to Plato from the foothills of the Superstition Mountains

Saturday Night at the Oldies: Time

The problems associated with time are the toughest there are. I need a break from breaking my head against them.  I'm nursing a Jack and Coke and on the prowl for some 'timely' tunes.

Chad and Jeremy, Yesterday's Gone

New Christy Minstrels, Today

Beatles, Tomorrow Never Knows. "Turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream . . . " This one goes out to Vlastimil V.

Bob Seger, Old Time Rock and Roll

Chicago, Does Anybody Know What Time it is?

Cyndi Lauper, Time After Time

Billie Holliday, As Time Goes By

Glen Campbell, By the Time I Get to Phoenix

Beatles, Any Time at All

Beatles, Things We Said Today

Allman Bros., Ain't Wastin' Time No More

Marty Robbins, Cryin' Time

Bob Dylan, The Times They Are a' Changin'

The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slowest one now will later be fast
As the present now will later be past
The order is rapidly fading
The first one now will later be last
For the times they are a'changin'.

If this anthem's Biblical lines  move you then you were not only in the 'sixties, but of the 'sixties.
