The only Bee Gees song I never turn off in the car. Probably because I was a teenager when it was released and just had another girl dump me! Keep smiling.

Wow—thanx hoop Scary as I sit solo wondering if I have it, though I have no symptoms.... Met his father in London many years ago when a racing partner was working for the Network.
Hopefully no lasting lung damage
Spending nights up late working through a lot of lps—mostly mono

Recent interesting mono plays have been: Fresh Cream—Disraeli Gears(both far beyond stereo) R U X?—-Axis Have all Beatles mono—Revolver sounds great Just missed out on a test pressing of Bee Gees 1st mono—very rare
A lot of that era lps were done promo in mono for AM radio I search out white label promos—can be pricey esp in mono
Stereo is a man made alteration/creation that greatly improved over time Avoid any lps that was electrically re-processed to simulate stereo

Mr. Weisbord is a brave soul, and what he went thru sounds very scary. The thought that there may not be a bed in an ICU, or equipment to support you if you take a turn for the worse, is even more scary, and this is the reason for concern, not that this is just another virus but that it won't be staggered enough in casualties to avoid overwhelming hospital, personnel and equipment reserves. I'm glad he made it thru. Sean Payton seems to be doing okay too, after he tested positive after attending the Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn.
My take on all this? We have people in this society like firemen who go into burning buildings to save people; first reponsponders who walked the rubble of 9/11 which could have collapsed under them at any time while they looked for survivors; helicopter pilots flying into tight dangerous mountain ranges and canyons to rescue hikers and skiers, and medical personnel on the front lines treating highly contagious diseases the world over..........all kinds of people doing doing truly death defying actions to help others.
For most of the rest of us SAVING LIVES HAS NEVER BEEN EASIER........all we have been asked to do is STAY HOME.
Not a lot to ask.

Over here in the UK on the television we had a 94 year old Dunkirk vet saying how everyone can do there bit to save someone and all they have to do is stay home on the settee. But as you may have seen a lot of people Carry on like it's a normal day makes me sick to see it. Anyway that's my little rant about it. Just please stay SAFE.
