I first heard the Rolling Stones classic “I can’t get no satisfaction” in 1976. That was more than a decade post it’s release, yet a few years before my teens. And I strutted through my school years with this song on my lips. Ah, what wondrous years they were. Years of discovery, of findings, ofContinue reading “I can’t get no satisfaction”
