Talk about SOUL!!!
Worth the watch for the drum and guitar solos…but don’t expect to hold still.
Definitely a “pump up the volume” song!!
Woodstock….ahh, so close and yet………(another post someday!)
(First version, longer but poor video quality)
(2nd version shorter but easier to watch)

No, I am not on vacation…although Nancy Merrill is. So she is skipping a week of her inspiring photo challenges. Her themes are great and the responses she gets are wonderful. Worth visiting her site:
Here’s one I responded to a while back.
Since Nancy is gone on vacation, I decided to use THAT as my own theme for today. I actually started writing about our 7,000 mile Epic Roots Road Trip vacation last summer but never got back to it.
Here’s a photo sampling.
I’d comment but can’t see the screen…tears…
the video is really worth a watch…what a love story.
Thanks Xenia Tran…for all your lovely posts.
I don’t know what Henley’s meaning for this song is but I know what it meant to me.
This song is dedicated to the hundreds of brand new Dad’s, whose baby daughters and sons entered this world in my presence. How lucky was I to have attended and witnessed so many births over the years? The most profound miracles of my life!
As for this video, I am so impressed with Don Henley live. Though the quality of this video is not great, what a polished performance.

Don Henley – Taking Your Home (Live)
Album: Inside Job (2000)
Lyrics by https://genius.com/Don-henley-taking-you-home-lyrics
I had a good life
Before you came
I had my friends and my freedom
I had my name
Still there was sorrow and emptiness
Till you made me glad
Oh and this love
I found strength
Never knew i had
And this love
Is like nothing i have ever known
Take my hand
I’m taking you home
Taking you home
There were days, lonely days
When the world
Wouldn’t throw me a crumb
But I kept on believin’
That this day would come
And this love
Is like nothing like I have ever known baby
Take my hand
I’m taking you home
I’m taking you home
Where we can be with the ones who really care
Home
Where we can grow old together
Keep you in my heart forever
Oh and this love
Is like nothing I have ever known
Take my hand
Taking you home
Taking you home
Yes I am
mysteriously little info available, apparently a bit of controversy, hope I don’t get in any trouble for this post. 😒

There is a whole HUGE category of people for whom MUSIC speaks way louder and more clearly than any amount of political discussion or rhetoric! Just ask any true Hippie or Flower Child!
MORE MUSIC!!
Here is a second attempt at re-blogging my friend Karuna’s post today.
I”m going to put the main song I want to pass on directly in here, in case the re-blog doesn’t work again, but do visit her sight also. She always has great, beautiful, inspiring stuff there.
As a friend from my long-time writer’s group says,
“If this song doesn’t give you goose bumps, well then I just don’t know about you…”
Please RE-BLOG, this one and also “Don’t Lie to Me”
