Summertime In The 70s
The good news is, it's difficult to imagine the back half of 2022 being worse than the first six months.
Stocks stumbled Thursday in a drab session befitting of the worst first half for US shares in decades. Already somber sentiment took another hit from a lackluster read on personal spending, which bolstered the recession narrative at the expense of policymakers' increasingly far-fetched pretensions to soft landing glory.
"US consumer spending has been revised sharply lower through the first
“ Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck gettin’ dirt’ ‘n’ gritty
Been down, isn’t it a pity?
Doesn’t seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people looking half-dead
Walkin’ on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head”
That’s this summer
“ But at night it’s a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on and dance all night
Despite the heat it’ll be alright
And babe, don’t you know it’s a pity
The days can’t be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city
Cool town, ev’nin’ in the city
Dress so fine and lookin’ so pretty
Cool cat lookin’ for a kitty
Gonna look in every corner of the city
‘Til I’m wheezin’ like a bus stop
Runnin’ up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop”
Maybe that’ll be this winter – anyways that’ll be how it is eventually.
Just gotta survive (in the portfolio return sense, the average reader of this blog is not in danger of not surviving in any other sense) until Cool Town.
Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight
Gonna grab some afternoon delight
My motto’s always been ‘when it’s right, it’s right’
Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night?
When everything’s a little clearer in the light of day
And we know the night is always gonna be there any way
Thinkin’ of you’s workin’ up my appetite
Looking forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbin’ sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite
And the thought of lovin’ you is getting so exciting
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Started out this morning feeling so polite
I always though a fish could not be caught who wouldn’t bite
But you’ve got some bait a waitin’ and I think I might try nibbling
A little afternoon delight
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Please be waiting for me, baby, when I come around
We could make a lot of lovin’ ‘for the sun goes down
Thinkin’ of you’s workin’ up my appetite
Looking forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbin’ sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite
And the thought of lovin’ you is getting so exciting
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight!

I nominate “What’s Going On” to this ‘conversation’…
My nomination is “”The Party’s Just Begun”. No, not the happy dance hit. Rather the song from NYC band Missing Foundation;:
“Often destroying venues and leaving the audience either in violent protests lasting hours after the conclusion of the show, or completely mystified and dazed by what they had just witnessed, MF was banned from numerous venues and in some cases entire cities. In 1988, the band nearly burned the historic rock n’ roll club CBGB’s to the ground, causing bands like Sonic Youth and Swans to run for their lives.”
A message that may indeed be appropriate for our times: ““And when people feel the economic crunch & you can’t have the life that others have—you get dangerous.”—Missing Foundation graffiti.
that’s a good one for sure…
Applied 70’s music?: “War Pigs”.
“Why Can’t We Be Friends” WAR 1975
