"Morning Rider on the Road" by The Partridge Family

45's I got in Pleasant Grove

I found a plastic bag with some 45 RPM singles in it on my floor, I wasn't sure exactly where they came from until I found the receipt from Purple Turtle.  I remembered I found the 45's in that little thrift shop in Pleasant Grove and then went and got something to eat at the Purple Turtle.

When I lived in Lehi / Pleasant Grove and later when I worked at Incognito in American Fork I used to love to eat at the Purple Turtle.  It didn't seem to be as good this time and I thought it was outrageously expensive.

Anyway, this 45 jumped out at me.  I loved this song back in the day.  The lyrics seem a little weird now, like the lines "like a hobo in the sun" and "like an Indian on the run" feels a little weird now, but I still like it.

But what I really find disturbing now is the second 45 in the photo "For the Love of Him" by Bobbi Martin.  Can you say misogynistic!?!?!  I like this song, but it's pretty painful listening to it.
