"The Boys of Summer"

"The Boys of Summer"
Back in 2013 NME listed 25 Tracks "To Bring In The Autumn". One of the tracks was "The Boys of Summer" by Don Henley.

Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air
The summer's out of reach

So, a good enough reason to use this track for 'Sight and Sound' methinks :-)

This is the new Physics building for the University of Oxford that is nearing completion. Could very well be another Oxford building I will be photographing quite often :-)

What a gorgeous combination of color and form, Roger. I look forward to more of your photos of this new building. :)

Neither of the links worked for me, in fact, I wasn't able to find any Don Henley links that weren't blocked for this song. I have noticed that about the Eagles music now on YouTube. Someone is really policing it which is not good for us. :-(

Thanks so very much, Karen :-) That's not good that Don's music and the Eagles music is being blocked :-( I know I've said it before but I don't fully understand the reasoning behind blocking. I have a couple of Don's albums tucked away in boxes and I'm not immediately sure exactly which ones. Seeing this song on YouTube may result in Don selling the album to me. I'm sure there are lots of people 'out there' that would buy an artists' music after seeing it on YouTube. I'll stop wofflin' now :-))

I feel the same way, Roger. It's really quite silly that they do it. ;-)

It is for sure. I don't have to go out and buy this song because, believe it or not, I have got the album!! I was looking for something else and "Building The Perfect Beast" is in a drawer near where I sit when I am using the computer :-)))
