Listening to this brought back the memory of being in my teens when "Werewolves Of London" was released. It was all over Detroit radio, being one of the few Warren Zevon songs to make the charts. It was, in my memory, a big hit and part of that years summer soundtrack. I used to spend a lot of my summers hanging out with my cousins. I had been to my cousin Preston's for a few weeks and had just returned home. I walked into my bedroom to find my older brother and an older cousin sitting in my room listening to the radio. I saw the "Werewolves Of London" single on my turntable that my cousin had brought over. I turned it on and turned it up. A few seconds later my Dad walked in with a pair of wire cutters, cut my stereo's power cord and walked out. Seems my brother and my cousin were playing the song over and over till my Dad threatened to cut the power. It became a thing, if my Dad thought my stereo was being played too loud he would walk in and cut the cord. When I moved out the power cord was about 4 inches long...

I had to use an extension cord until I bought a new receiver I used to show it to my friends when they would visit...it never failed to get a laugh!

I appreciate your Dad. I felt the same way when my daughter would put "M-m-m-m-bop" on replay...
ReplyDeleteOh man! With my daughter it was Boys To Men...
