Thread Name: Are you stuck in a time warp?
Subject: RE: Are you stuck in a time warp?
I'm reminded of two bits of video to which we've been "treated" in the past few years...

The truly horrendous "Folk Scare Reunion" (My own title, not the real one) that PBS put together and Judy Collins and the Smothers Brothers hosted. I was stuck somewhere between tears of laughter, tears of pity, and projectile vomiting at that'n. It proved beyond at dounbt that the 60's music, sans context, and sans worthy interpretation, is not, in fact, timeless.

The other is A Mighty Wind which showed us in very unkind terms that our notion of timeless was self-delusional.

Still....."The Very Thought Of You"?   ....yeah, some things are timeless. *grin*
