"Cherry Hill Park" was one of my favorites when I was in high school. Royal was one of Joe South's buddies. Sad to hear this.
I liked his stuff a lot. Including the '80s hits.
Damn, I had "Boondocks" running on my CD player at work just a few hour ago; And my passenger was singing right along.
Moochie, Billy Joe. These things come in threes, so who's next.
I wish I could choose.
BTW, since you suggested it I tried clicking on the Publish Your Comment box, part of which showed behind the Pick the Pizzas, or whatever test. It worked. You don't have to take the damn tests after all. Thanks for suggesting it.
