He knows where all those guys of the seventies are staying. Dan's current status represents all that is wrong with a system that wastes its talents. A prolific songwriter like him ought to live better than he is doing now. But the recognition given to him by you and others is at least some consolation. Regarding the flip side of "Money to Burn" I will check. I think I have the 45 stashed away somewhere, a gift from Emma himself, along with "Catch that love" by the Wings and other 45s.<BR/><BR/>Da Hurricane Man.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08639568971366962555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26746300.post-26518605905586667402009-02-27T13:32:00.000-05:002009-02-27T13:32:00.000-05:00Believe me, Ambrose...
