Autumn is hanging on for dear life here. In fact, here, I think it’s been frozen so much it decided to go south for the winter. Wish it had taken me with it! As fall falls, here’s another song with “fall” in the title. #8: Still Falling for You - Boz Scaggs But of course I’ll use Boz Scaggs at any opportunity. And, every time I use something from this album, the less-than-successful follow-up to the mega-selling Silk Degrees, I like to quote the opening line from Rolling Stone magazine, which just couldn’t bring themselves to admit this wasn’t that great an album: Boz Scaggs is a little like sex and rock and roll. When he’s good, he’s great. When he’s bad, he’s not all that bad. When this was released as a single the label said, “From the forthcoming album Still Falling for You.” They changed the album title between the release of the single and the release of the album. The review was right: this isn’t a “bad” album; however, Silk Degrees (or Middle Man, or my favorite, Moments) it’s NOT. But this is still a good song that gets a crank of the volume button when it comes on. Still Falling for You Written by Boz Scaggs Recorded by Boz Scaggs From Down Two Then Left, 1977 He just ate his cocktail napkin!:

I've never heard that one before. So are you saying it's not still autumn there as you've had a lot of icy weather? If so maybe we have your fall weather or at least or-winter. It's dry at present. No ice nor snow not rain. The temps are cooler today though. Mid thirties.

When it gets cold here, and especially if we have a little sn*w, everyone freaks out because this is the south! I lived in too many warm places, and I’m getting too old, for cold weather.

@FourWalls if we can ever go south for the winter in assuming for KY or TN mostly because if something happens back home is a little faster driving back again.

Sorry that your autimn weather is disappearing Interesting about Boz Scaggs. I was never a big rock n roll fan as country has always been my thing. I know you're probably cringing at me saying that

Nope. Don't recognize this one either. Must be an age thing.
