42.

What's this "Crocodlie Rock" song? It sounds a right banger to me.
I know a man who taught his dog to play the trumpet on the London Underground.
He went from Barking to Tooting in an hour.

It's a snappy litle number..
Odd thing, ain't it... you meet people one at a time, they seem decent, they got brains that work, and then they get together and you hear the voice of the people. And it snarls.

It was from when rock was young, way before a young fellow-me-lad like yourself.

Gave up at 20. I'm guessing WXIT is/was a AM Rock station from some God forsaken place in the USA.

Seems to be in Watauga County, North Carolina.

Or some God forsaken place in the USA as you surmised.
I once had a whim and I had to obey it
To buy a French Horn in a second-hand shop;
I polished it up and I started to play it
In spite of the neighbours who begged me to stop.

Isn't the majority of the USA God forsaken?

If you can remember the 1978 Festival then you weren't really there man.

"The WXIT Rock 100 of 1972"?

Reminded me of Jasper Carrott's joke about KFC - Kan't Find The Chicken.

There are more in there I wish I couldn't remember than those I actually couldn't.
