Impressive Tabby

 Song 785: This week the playlist focuses on Cool Cat by Queen, written by Freddie Mercury and John Deacon, and you can find a YouTube video of it by clicking on the title. Near the end of the summer of 1981, I found out that I'd have to get another place to reside because my room would soon become unavailable, and fortunately, someone moved out of the house in Berkeley where a bunch of my musical friends lived and I got that available space. While I mostly paid attention to the melodic rides coming from that Berkeley circle, I did still listen to the radio as well, and in the spring of 1982 a royal quartet began informing everyone about a groovy feline. For years, I had been wishing and hoping and waiting to really hit the big time, but did it happen? No, it didn't. However, the real reason for missing the big time had nothing to do with speeding too fast.
