On Baker Street

I've been spending some time on Baker Street. And every time I'm there, I hear Gerry Rafferty and that saxophone and some of the most poignant lyrics ever written.

I'm just in the process of sending a copy of Baker Street to someone who hasn't heard it... but needs to... because the song is about them... just as much as it is about most of us...

The reason for this post is that while checking out Baker Street on websites I came across a discussion that was quite amazing... no trolls, no unpleasantness... just post after post of warm emotion for Baker Street and for its significance in people's lives... and for the late Gerry Rafferty.

Baker Street meant so much to so many people, it seems. And what is that meaning? If you don't know, you'd better give it a listen... It was written for you too.

  1. Baker Street so reminds me of being 12 (ish) and in my big sister's bedroom on a Sunday afternoon learning about life...
