Top Three - Awesome Tropic Trust Me

Post by jbfins »

What are the three songs, in order, that made you a parrothead?

Me:
(1) Volcano
(2) He Went To Paris
(3) Jollymon (live out in Lomg Island, can't remember the shw's name, but Paul Simon played, and that was when I met the flock.)

Sometimes more than others,
we see who and what and where we are,
I'm just a one man band,
With my feet in the sand,
Tonight I just need my guitar

Nobody Speaks To The Captain No More.

I got my hands on a copy of Floridays...didn't listen to it forever, but when I finally did, the sadness of that song did me in. I kept listening for a million others, but there is absolutely no question of what song hooked me, long before I'd ever even heard any of the SYKBH.

The fact that it is followed by Floridays, If It All Falls Down, and When The Coast Is Clear sure didn't hurt, but it was The Captain...no question.

I'm a bit different that way, I guess.

Saw him first time in a bar...in the early 70's...He did the songs, and told stories in between about the songs, and just life.
Made me laugh....Made me cry.

I was hooked.
