A Fine Day in April

What a beautiful day! Cool, but sunny and just a lovely spring day. It went down in the 30's last night and will again tonight so I have my "spring" plants covered! I spent the day first doing a little dissertation work, then cleaning out kitchen cupboards. I got about 1/3 of the way through the kitchen; I also was repainting/touching up as I moved along. Will continue to work on that for a few days!

I thought I'd share one of my favorite singers (since earlier I shared a favorite artist!). I just love Paul Rodgers! He created and fronted "Free" in the 60's ("All Right Now") and "Bad Company" in the 70's ("Bad Company," "Feel Like Making Love") and just now is taking the lead for Queen. Here is a link to him 2 years ago, with Queen singing "Feel Like Making Love" : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kw2Bbgn-NFI He is now 59 years old - 57 in the video and looking pretty darn good! Here is another video, this time singing an old Queen hit "Fat Bottomed Girls": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjrHNu-Uq4o&feature=related I don't know a young singer that can out-rock or out-sing Paul Rodgers ... well probably very few can out-sing Paul Rodgers; he has always had one of the best voices in rock. Here's Paul singing "All Right Now": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxzJwl0Tanc He hasn't lost anything, has he?! And now ... if you want a blast from the past, here's Paul singing "All Right Now" with Free in 1971: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2B2clFsLA3w&feature=related
