The Real Ramona
Having spent most of the morning thinking about The Throwing Muses it was spooky to then go put for lunch in Palo Alto and find myself parking in the underground parking lot between Ramona and Bryant.
Of course, the last real Throwing Muses album, with Tanya, was 1991's "Real Ramona". As I remember, it was one of the last albums I bought on original vinyl.
It was not an unqualified success, but I just love Tanya's "Not Too Soon", also known as "the Frankenstein Song"by the band, as it changed so much over the years.
We also met some really nice doggies today. Don't think they are in the "Doghouse"!
They had lovely soft fur. I'm not a huge dog fan, some of them are a pain in the arse. But these dogs just melt my heart.
The bubble machine was very funny too - very Haight Ashbury!
