Admiral Halsey / Uncle Albert
Sitting On the dock of the Bay
Levon
Into the mystic
Rikki don’t lose that number
The needle and the damage done
Don’t Dream it’s over

So many more that come to mind.


None of these are my favorites by that particular artist . But all resonated for me at a particular time in my childhood / earlier years and lead me to investigate further and are on my “ I’m shook” playlist .
