Rick N. Backer Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I just heard that Paul Simon song in a store last week. Always makes me laugh. Remember well "Stuck In The Middle With You", or, as I used to think they were singing "Stuck in a riddle with you." I made the exact same mistake Lorraine.

blueschica Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 One old song that isn't that well known but a very pretty old tune is The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's "Buy For Me The Rain". Always loved that one! I have a good friend whose husband plays guitar at a picnic they have every summer. He let me know that he knew that one once! Now he is nice enough to indulge me every few years so I can sing along :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't get much airplay at the time, but I did manage to buy the 45 back then. I think it was very early 1967. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
