Leo Sayer has a very fun song called Long Tall Glasses. I am a cancer patient. I had to stop chemo because of some pretty bad side effects. I developed something called Peripheral Neuropathy which affects the nerves in my spinal cord. I have to use a walker because of it. One night, I was listening to Long Tall Glasses and I got up to get something in the kitchen. My feet started dancing before I knew what was happening. I fell and sat in the floor laughing at myself.

This is the first song of his I remember ever hearing, from him. I remember being a kid in the 70s and my father was in the military and every time we went to a new base an assignment we drove. His music would come on the radio on a regular basis throughout the 70s and early 80s. And this song in particular was very hunting to me.

I grew up listening to music from the 70s. But, I must confess, I was really shocked when I saw the performers. You know when they did those CD commercials on TV and the show the singers? That's how I stumbled upon the "looks". I couldn't belief such beautiful music came from some of the outlandishly dressed performers.

He had quite a few good hits. He had a nice smooth high-pitched voice. Always liked him. I'm pretty sure this came out when I was in high school in the late '70s, but can't remember exactly. That feels so long ago. :) There were so many good bands and singers that you forget about some of them. But when something pops up like this, it certainly takes you back to your youth (in you mind only, unfortunately).

He had a big bus with his name on the front. This was in Canada just about the time Leo's career was taking off. We were star struck and managed to get his autograph. We didn't get many big names around Atlantic Canada at that time. Not sure how old he was, but I can still picture that bus.haha
