At first, Roger was afraid of going back to St. Patrick's Day of 42 years ago. You might even say he was petrified. But in spite of it being a time when the movies were depicting the dangers of nuclear power, pop music was glowing with the heat of disco and the incendiary sound of punk. But there was still room for a lushly-maned teen idol, a song about a band bucking popular trends, a tune to watch orangutans by, and even a lesson about Imperial Russia. The Old Man will make sense of it all, with a little help from YouTube: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDWLXjsOJPQl0HqGe6SHCcV8SbuM8zd9R And if you'd like to support the show, there’s Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=35903110&fan_landing=true You listen, I feel good that someone's listening. Everyone's a winner.
