Re: Cherry People--left banke--cowsills

["frank b brandon III" <COSMOPOP@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

real strange confluence here---i hade a friend in the mid sixties---ed
gold(fluss) from queens who was an aspiring musician/songwriter---he was in
an early version of the left banke---he then spent a lotta time writing
songs---one song was actually recorded---twice---it's on the second cowsills
album and on the cherry people album----coincidence, i think not!!!! he
moved to north carolina to be a landscaper after making a bunch of money on
wall street---eddie, where are you now?
