April 13 – Sunday – The Sutherland Brothers & Quiver – Lifeboat

All I remember is that this was a merger of two groups and I don’t know a thing about them. Please to make me look them up. I only bought the album for one song, and I don’t even know what it is. Released in 1973, it was produced by Muff Winwood, older brother of Steve, and Rod Stewart covered the Sutherlands’ “Sailing.” Both are good versions. There is a possibility that the song which made this album mine is “(I don’t want to love you but) You got me anyway” just for that title line that is repeated over and over. It’s something I would have gone for then – oh who am I kidding. I still would. That’s got to be it.

It wasn’t a bad workout tonight, and I was motivated to return to the project. The record was okay, but a wonderful thing happened to me today. I got re-cousined. It was really quite a big deal in a very simple and comfortable way.

One more S.
