Threads and Tangents 3/29/22 - The Past Didn’t Go Anywhere

Tonight the musical thread is The Past Didn’t Go Anywhere. It’s a phrase that I heard from Utah Phillips and he got it from William Faulkner. They were speaking about social issues, but I’d like to apply the idea to music. So let’s check out the idea that our musical past didn’t go anywhere by listening to songs that were released in 1972. These songs still influence other musicians and they’ll be heard by music fans for a long time to come.
