I love classic rock. I'm a sucker for 70's music in general. (It doesn't help that my dad who was a teenager in that time period would play 70's themed music stations on the radio when he drove me to school)
Funny - right before I woke up, I was dreaming that I woke up on the couch and the t.v. was on and there was a concert on and they were singing One Fine Morning by Lighthouse (thinking it wasn't them, but it sounded just like the record). And I tried to turn it up - 40-50-60-70 and the screen went blue. And I got up and yelled at the "stupid t.v.".

John Williams turns 86 tomorrow and, along with the all incredible film scores he's composed, he's also written several Olympic fanfares which we will undoubtably be hearing snippets of over the next few weeks:
Olympic Fanfare and Theme 1984 (Los Angeles)
I've been listening to the 'Olympic Fanfare and Theme' these days. It always makes me feel that there may be hope for mankind to live together in peace...well at least for a few weeks. Heck! Every single time I hear those trumpets sending out that call to the athletes, I want to run toward that cauldron to compete in something...anything!
Maybe I could qualify for Olympic cheering for humanity!
This is beautifully inspiring feel-good music!
Thank you, Mr. John Williams!
