If this doesn't make you smile, nothing will.

pattinase (abbott) said...: Although it was my kid's years-at least the latter part, the music is as familiar to me as the sixties.; 6:53 PM
Deb said...: I hadn't heard this sing in years, possibly more than a decade, but as soon as I heard, "Our love is alive/and so we begin," I knew every word.

Fun fact: Suzi Quatro played Pinky Tuscadero's sister (I think her name was Leather Tuscadero) on "Happy Days."; 7:57 PM
pattinase (abbott) said...: Oh, I had forgotten that but now I can picture her perfectly.; 8:17 PM
Enlightenment said...: nice post; 3:20 AM
Todd Mason said...: I've featured Quatro's work with her sisters in the Pleasure Seekers, and the metamorphosis of that band into Cradle and passage of members onto Fanny, fairly frequently on my blog...; 9:15 AM
Todd Mason said...: Meanwhile, this would be '70s, no?; 9:16 AM
Shannon J. said...: Yep, 1979.

I'm a baby but I grew up listening to Suzi Q and developed a lifelong "obsession" if you will. LPs, magazines, biographies, T-shirts. She is and remains to this day my all-time favorite singer. Although I preferred her harder rockin' sounds (if you could call them that.) She was pretty hard for a chick back in the '70s. Devil Gate Drive is my favorite.; 1:42 PM
