Background
I was born in Massena, NY along the St.Lawerence river which borders Canada. (Living in Woodland Park, CO now). My mother was actually born in Canada. Anyway, I was a teen in the late 70s early 80s and listened to classic rock such as Zeppelin, Stones, The Who, and Pink Floyd and occasionally that new band AC/DC. I liked all kinds of music really, but CR was my thing.
Present
Well as you know I’m AF and it’s been just over 2 weeks. I hear that alcohol takes approx. 7 to 10 days to fully leave your body, so at day 13 a very strange thing took over me. It’s Friday night and I’m home with my doggies, and all of sudden I have this urge out of nowhere to play that song “That’s the way (I like it)”. What the Fr!ck??? or what the Funk?? I go with it since my whole body and emotions have been going in all kinds of directions. I looked up who played it and found out it’s KC and The Sunshine Band and played it on YouTube. Next thing I know I’m clearing the living room floor and doing some very bad grovin and shaking my booty. I couldn’t get enough so I fired them up on iHeartRadio.
The songs just made me smile and have some fun from Get Down Tonight to Keep it Comin’ Love. I still haven’t given up my classics though, but an old dog can always learn new tricks, right?
I’m digging this new AF FUNK. Thanks for all your support.
Dwight
