Dedicated to Donna

Transferring some vinyl records to a mini disc format made me dizzy......

Jo Jo Gunne
Bubblegum
Sixties Psychedelia.
Eighties lists
Mini discs
Emotional memorabilia.

Supertramp-Dreamer
I'm a believer,
Back to the younger years.
Mozart-a hit,
Loved it, I admit
But shed a few tears here.

Pink Floyd, some Blur
(These I prefer)
Even who killed Bambi?
Visit the library
Copy Kylie.
Listen to the Cramberries.

Waiting for a star
Gemmas' song by far
Add a song by Llamhl.
Blasphemous rumors
Orchestral manoeuvres
While Ziggy and Joseph play guitar.

The Boxer-our anthem;
Just like to thank 'em
For the nights of song and wine.
Freda Payne
Tearful again,
Our voices drunk entwine.

Search the PC
for lists to see
Add to present and past.
Peter Noone
I'll play you soon.
The years have gone too fast.

Copy, name
label again
Siouxsie, Peek-a-boo.
Some Indie and Punk,
Soul and funk
All dedicated to you.

With my lovely friend in mind, Donna that passed in 1997

Donna and Linda used to put the world to right over a bottle of wine and then sing and record themselves. They spent many happy years learning songs and sharing many favourite tracks from many groups. A good way to thrash out some wonderful memories and like the way the prose turned out.

But - I've got to say Linda writes a hell of a lot better than her singing......
