In 1971 Yes produced The Yes Album and Fragile, Paul McCartney did Ram and Wildlife while The Faces did two of their own and also played on Rod Stewart’s breakthrough.span widgetspan widgetspan widget 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did Minnie wear a bra? What’s with Donald and no pants? Talk about sexism? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Traveler Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I remember living in Bad Godesberg, Germany in 1971 and I wanted to be a Hippy and my mom would give me a crew cut...Cut to 2020 and my hair has grown to the point my wife gave me a haircut because it was as long as it's ever been and I'm starting to "look like a Hippy." Crazy 50 years...Happy New year! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
