about

a bluesy 12/8 with horn riffs and a vestige of a vintage use of major/minor alternation.

lyrics

An old newspaper clipping, with an underline
a box of pictures, some old times
memory that lingers, past its prime,
must be stuff I’m saving

Tickets from a show, with whom I went, perhaps you know
a copy of the license we once had to have and hold
a snapshot of our baby, when she was one year old
must be stuff I’m saving

memory is dim of past events which persevere
as these scraps sail in the wind, a flapping sound I hear
some scribbles I can’t read, encomia and screen
must be stuff I’m saving

A comic book about a wart hog, with super powers
an old photograph that you inscribed forever ours
this indian charm, that came from your great grandma
a airline ticket to anonymity in Omaha
this foolish heart, that persists in being raw
must be stuff I’m saving

about

Mike Pellecchia Lee, New Hampshire

Mike wrote these songs in some of his favorite vintage styles of pop music, as he heard them on the radio and vinyl records in the 1960s. One song is a cover, "You Call It Joggin'", by the late John D. Loudermilk.
