RE: Juke Box Time: Paul Simon - Kodachrome (HQ)
Great choice for the Jukebox. It's one of those songs that I never much cared about the 'deeper meaning'.
I suppose it's possible he was taking naked pictures of girls. Wouldn't we all have wanted to in 1973? I certainly wouldn't have gotten married that year if I had been.
I don't think it was his mother with the film. I think it was his Momma, slang for girlfriend in those days. Maybe he took naked pictures of her? The problem was you had to develop them yourself or you'd go straight to jail for pornography. Which isn't the reason I had a dark room...
Too much talk and not enough respect. Thanks for a warm and fuzzy memory.
Hello @bigtom13 nice to see you commenting here!
Hmm, yeah, you are probably right,( I was not around in 1973)... But I can imagine there was plenty of naked girls around "free love" and all that... =)
About the "momma" part, it makes more sense... He wanted to keep the photos and his "momma" took them away, maybe she was afraid they might end up some place... Anyway what do I know, but he paints a warm and colorful picture with this song, that is for sure...
=)
-Thanks again for dropping by @bigtom13!
Have a beer on the house!
