We saw Harry Chapin perform this song, Taxi, in one of his last live performances. This timeless ballad continues to feed my post-Zen-glow of San Francisco…
It was raining hard in ‘Frisco, I needed one more fare to make my night…
Another of my old faves! Thanks for posting this, David.

What a sweet man…! I enjoyed this, David…
Excuse me; I haven’t heard of this man..!
I know; shoot me softly…! 😉

OMG, really Carolyn?!?! I have to let you slide on this one. It’s just too easy. And I need to be sensitive as you might be a member of some long lost tribal sect. No power. No TV. (for 30 years)

Haha… No, David…. Not a member of any sect.. 😉
My partner, K just took a look, and he hasn’t heard of him either..
You will have to pardon our Aussie ways (well, some of them…)!
We don’t get to see and hear all that you do in the US…
We are currently listening to our community broadcasting station. Sunday afternoons they showcase Casey Kasem. (It’s now midday, and Casey has begun). It’s a 4 hour program highlighting his ‘actual’ broadcasts from the past. He often plays songs that we here in Australia haven’t heard… And some of the artists are also new to us… some 30 years or so later… Just sayin’…. 😉

Laughing. Thanks for background and color Carolyn.

I haven’t heard that song in a long time…love it. Thanks David. 🙂

One of my favs too Carol.

One of Andy’s favorite shower songs..he doesn’t do it justice, believe me.
Loading...
Laughing…It all sounds concert like in the shower!
Loading...
So he keeps telling me.
Loading...
Giggling….I’m getting a visual….Andy with a loofah in one hand and a bottle of Treseme {uh, I mean microphone} in the other….
Loading...
Yup..you have it right..but it’s Herbal Essence volumizing shampoo…he’s convinced his hair is thinning…:-)
Loading...
he’s not the only one convinced. We are all.

Harry, Keep the change.
Loading...
Yes, line will live on…and on.

This is such a classic! I love these “narrative tales,” and nobody does it better than Chapin… Another song that I love in this genre is Gordon Lightfoot’s “Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.”
Loading...
How lucky that you got to see him in person! What a wonderful song-writer performer….

Yes, it was a concert that isn’t far from short term memory. Shame he died so young.
