Denis Leary once did a bit about families who were suing heavy metal bands for their effects on the children...he said "Does that mean I can sue Dan Fogelberg for making me into a pussy in the mid '70s?"
I sort of felt the same way about America. Still, it was part of the soundtrack of my life, and I can still play the riff from "Ventura Highway" in my sleep. R.I.P.
Sorry to hear about this. The America album featuring "Horse With No Name" was one of my favorites back in the day.
On a related note, there sure have been a lot of celebrity obits over the last couple of days.
The Reaper's working overtime, Deb.
Dusty, I sure wish I could play that riff.
