    Gerry suffered with alcoholism and depression throughout his life and this heartfelt track was written for his wife Carla Ventilla who he met in 1965. She spent a large part of their marriage helping Gerry through his issues but in the end it finally got too much for Carla and they divorced in 1990, twelve years after he wrote this for her. RIP Gerry, a fine musician.

    Rafferty was one of those rare musicians who didn't want the fame - just wanted to make music. Such a tragic loss. A few more of his Songs you might enjoy, "To Each And Every One of You", "City to City", "Home and Dry", "Night Owl", "Family Tree", "Sleep Walking" and "Wise as a Serpent".

    This was the follow up to Baker Street.
    Beautiful song with great vocals and a wonderful melody. This was popular on the contemporary pop Billboard. It made it to Number 1 in the US and Number 5 on Canada. Great reaction. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️ ❤️ 🇨🇦🇨🇦

      I agree with your Level 42 recommendation. I lived in London in 1986 and where ever you went, Level 42 was playing. I bought the Lessons In Love CD (the new format that was replacing vinyl records) at Virgin Records where I met a relative new-comer, Daniel Day Lewis, who was there promoting his National Theatre play, The Futurists. The Pretenders Chain Gang began playing and when he sang along, DDL really belted out, "For making us paaahhhhhrt!" I digress, but that memory is always tied to my Level 42 CD because DDL signed the case. I saw Level 42 at Wembley Stadium in December 1986. Great times and wonderful country to visit.

    The secret to this song is that is so delicate that upon first listen is seems unassuming and maybe just a "chill" song but truth is that it is an immensely emotional song that is just waiting to catch you when you're alone. Also, it's a patient song; it is waiting to sink into your emotions years later, allowing itself to resonate deeper into your heart. Right Down The Line will just grow and grow its way into you.

She would do this in her room or make the bed of my pickup truck her “stage”, until she saw us watching and she would do that embarrassed withdrawal just like your daughter. She’s in her 30s now and I’m past 70. Thank you for bringing a sentimental tear to an old man’s eye.

Her first album hit in 1979 and had several hits on it, and the one that made her famous was "Chuck E's in Love." Check that one out, and then you'll be eager to hear the rest of her hits.

Had the big old stereo with equalizers and all the trimmings. Vinyl, 8 track, cassette, mpg's. I have a huge Spotify list. Keep up the good work. I will be listening. July 20, 2023. I have a lot to catch up on with you two.

    If Amber is looking for a band that features the Sax alot, I'd recommend "John Cafferty, and the Beaver Brown band". Songs like; "Tender Years" "Some like it hot" "Garden of Eden" "NYC song" "Pride of Passion" and "Mariya". All bangers!
    *They were also the band who's music was 100% the soundtrack to the movie "Eddie and the Cruisers". (Pt 1 and 2)
    You and Jay will absolutely love them. 😃

    It was really nice to grow up at a time when meaningful pop/soft rock songs like this were all over the radio, as well as hard rockers, metal, prog, r&b, soul, even disco, you name it!

    What I have always liked about Gerry was his voice was so smooth and soothing. You just get lost in the song. They just don't make music like this anymore and I was a teenager that grew up in the 80's and saw and heard some of the best music ever. If you want to have a song that tugs at your heart, give a listen to Red Sovine. Old style country with great story telling.

    Gerry Rafferty wanted to express how he loved this woman, but didn't know how but to write and sing this song. Jim Croce did much the same thing in the song, "I'll have to say I love you in a song." It's a lovely song that would make a great reaction for you!

      @kennethgestewitz6322 2 роки тому +3

      @@adallen3 "Same Old Lang Syne" for this time of year should be next choice for Fogelberg, But since Jay likes strings & Amber likes horns "Netherlands" for Jay & "Longer" for Amber would be my next trip down the Fogelberg rabbit hole, than more suggestions to come.

    • @scottkeefer67

    Unmistakable voice of Gerry Rafferty. Such a smooth, velvet voice. Gerry's lyrics were his own life experiences set to music and are so well put together. This talented man has a huge number of songs that are truly wonderful. Although Baker Street is a classic and threw Gerry into the limelight (which we wasn't fond of.!) he is so much more than just Baker Street - East to Talk, Don't Speak of my Heart, Night Owl. Welcome to Hollywood, The Royal Mile, Winters Come, Whatevers Written in your Heart, Don't Give Up On Me & Shipyard Town to name but a few......try them, you won't regret it. RIP Gerry.
