OT: Songs from the radio about the radio...

[ClifSpliffy]

after like the millionth tale of radio and the olden days from my elders, i managed to pick up a 'the crystal' -that's what they called it, 'the crystal,' and bring it to school, since apparently, no self respecting kid would be in class without one during World Series time, and i wanted to share the experience. teach says, upon discovery of my transgression, 'u know that there's no phone use in class, hand it over.' i do, and she says 'what's this?'
in the old hood in Bport, sometimes id get the travelogue from one of them -'and here's where ....' one amazing thing was that there was like a half dozen radio shops in the West Side. i guess that everyone needed a tube or voltmeter place within walking distance. amazing.
from the movie 'Radio Days.' nice tune. nice movie.

lost in the middle of seventeen,
yeah, everything about you and me,
was a tank of gas and a radio song...

when she heard about my new found luck on that fm dial....

This one was on the tip of my brain for a couple of days before I remembered it was the flip side of Brick House. Not my cuppa, but some here might enjoy it.
