There is no such species as a seagull. I've only found that out in past couple of years. I see ring billed gulls in shopping center parking lots looking for discarded fast food containers and asked a birder what seagulls were doing this far in land. I got educated that day.
As for geese, we have invasions of Canada types every year. For some reason they are a protected species so we're not permitted to run over them as they slowly amble over the thoroughfares during rush hour. Honk at them and they just honk back.
The group wasn't schooled in ornithology. I found them on youtube and I'm not sure they were schooled in music either. ![]()
27 in '82.
I have the album buried somewhere, didn't like it than and after watching Youtube , I don't like them now lol
I can't remember buying any music in the '80s. There were a few songs I liked but not enough to break into a shilling.

My brain can't imagine what that is. That era also saw The Pogues and the genre of "punk". I didn't get into any of that. I think, in the '80s, I was more interested in "bluegrass" and other forms of Appalachian folk. Some folks referred to it as "hillbilly music" but I thought it was a great when compared to where American rock was going. The instruments and tunes were modelled after or mimicked traditional Celtic styles as those were the folks who settled in the Appalachian mountains. I buy very little music these days and anything I do was probably recorded 20 or more years ago.
listening to the AM country station but when Dad was at worked we'd listen to the local AM rock stations . Mom would play some Ray Charles or Mahalia Jackson records. Than Dad would come home and after dinner we watched Hee Haw or the Grand Ol' Opera .
So now I can enjoy a lot of different music but, never punk or rap and I really don't like reggae
and didn't sound like they were either operating a jackhammer or having an enema at the same time.
You could understand the words and there was either a story or emotion relevant to ones time in life.
