Seven Times Seven - #ALifeInNumbers #7


There were quite a few possibilities for number seven, such as Neneh Cherry and Youssou N'Dour's Seven Seconds and Gary US Bonds' Seven Day Weekend but I decided to go back to my teenage years and revisit the "B" Side of Hawkwind's "Silver Machine" , "Seven By Seven", certainly not as commercial the "A" side but dreamily psychedelic awash with bubbling electronics and definietly very cool.

I am now getting away for the source so to speak and like every journey, each new step presents new challenges, also in this case at some point the next step may actually be impossible. I suppose in that case I could write something , or plunder Mozart who wrote at least 40 symphonies (we started with a classical piece).

Also thanks to my friends for suggestions although Manfred Mann's 5-4-3-2-1 is not going to happen unless I use it for 54 or 43. The song I thought I was going to use for 54 will actually be used for 41 , I wonder if anyone will work that one out. I am listening to that song now.

Anyway it;s time for bed now, enjoy yourselves my brilliant friends.
