The sounds of the 60's were more varied than you would've assumed, because the era had a multitude of intriguing sounds, though some of which don't get mentioned that often. Then again, this happens to a majority of musical periods after their time, i.e. they get reduced to a couple of signifiers. Thus, I am not surprised The Association tend to be rarely mentioned among the most interesting musicians of the 60's. True, their easy listening pop does become treacly a lot, yet the mastery of their form shouldn't be questioned. However, they don't seem to fit the narrative of the 60's, because there's nothing rebellious about them, they feel like they belong to another time. You could actually see them opening for The Everly Brothers, to be honest.

Letter from Elizabeth (Lizzie) Keckley to Fanny Burwell.

The woman later known as Elizabeth (Lizzie) Keckley was born Elizabeth Hobbs in Dinwiddie Courthouse, Va. around 1818. She and her mother Agnes (Aggy) were Burwell family house slaves.

Lizzie began life as a slave to the family of Armistead and Mary Burwell and their thirteen children. At the age of 17, she was sent on loan to serve the Burwell’s oldest son Robert and his wife Anna in Hillsboro, NC. By the time this letter was written in 1842, she was back in Virginia, serving another Burwell daughter, Anne, wife of Hugh Garland.

Mansfield, April 25th 1842 

My Dear Miss Fanny, In your letter to Miss 

Betty you said that you were expecting A letter from me, I guess you will not be surprised when you receive this. I will begin with news as I know anything 

from home will interest you. Miss Betty spent the evening at Mr Powell’s last Friday by invitation. There were a good many young ladies there among whom was Miss Magruder, she called to see Miss Betty last week and told her to send her love to you, and say she called on purpose to see you. Mr and Mrs Randolph came out Saturday night, stayed all day Sunday and returned in the afternoon, but the weather looked rather unfavorable and I suppose they thought they had 

as well stay out here. Mr Jones came out here Friday night before last went over to Mr [Ran?] Powell’s and returned in a very short time, he said he was invited 

[page break] 

over there, and that was all he would tell us, but since we have found out that it was a trick played on him. Now I am speaking of him I will Tell you about his adventure yester day evening, his horse came running in the lot saddled we couldn’t ima- gine where it came from, about 

dark Mr Jones came up, and said that he got down to get some flowers the horse broke loose and ran off Jim carried the horse back to town before Mr Jones came and the people couldn’t think what had become of him so about ten O clock six or eight gentlemen came riding up looking for him. Betty Scott is going to be married the 3rd of May, Miss Bet and Mrs G. have gone to town to get Miss Bet’s frock, she will wear a book muslin. Scott is going to marry Dr. James Boisseau they say she will do very well. Fannie is standing 

[page break] 

up by the window singing Denmark. she is as sweet as ever and just as pretty she has not improved very much in her letters (abc) I am very busy making shirts, I have had 

to stop two or three days to cook as the women are chopping corn, I have got to make Miss Bet’s frock to wear to Miss Betty Scotts wedding. Miss Anne and [destroyed paper] Charlotte dont pretend to lace 

their corsets at the bottom Charlotte has’nt learnt to h[old?] up her head yet, and I am afraid she never will. Mr Randolph looks like an old man 60 years old his beard is quarter of an inch long and I let [Maj.?] Hughs off at an inch. Yanny and Fanny say you must answer their letters, you must not answer them in mine as I want a long letter. Mary has been sick with the ague and fever she is up today and much better Every one of the servants send their Love to you Mammy in particul ar, and also all of the white people, little and big. I shall have to stop soon as paper is get ing scarce and the times are too hard to send a double letter and to waste any more ink and spoil an excellent pen as you will see by 

[break] 

This writing Mistress is in Boydton.1 she will return after commencement. when Mr. Garland will go up. Miss Bet has the prospect 

of two beaux Dr. Spencer and [cuts off after this and then continues vertically] 

Mr Williamson who has been quite attentive lately. Yours truly, Lizzy

I've seen Chicago in concert 7 times! 💖 (And I'm gonna keep on seeing them as many more times as I possibly can.)

I've met Gary Lewis and Jim Yester. They were both super sweet. Also, one of the best moments of my life was when Lee Loughnane gave me a fist bump. I'm still not over that. haha.

I've been going to concerts in general since I was 6 years old. 😊

♫ Cherish ♫

Since I still have Eve of Destruction running through the vast caverns of my mind, I thought I would try to find something much more upbeat for tonight’s song to (hopefully) exorcise Barry McGuire before I head to bed.

Written by Terry Kirkman and recorded by The Association, there isn’t a whole lot to say about this song, released in 1966.  There is one thing I found humorous, however.  In 2012,…

Radio Days & Television Highlights With Steve Raymer, Director Emeritus Pavek Museum of Broadcasting

Thursday, March 29, 2018, 10:00-11:00 a.m.

Minneapolis Central Library, Doty Board Room, 2nd floor

Learn about the technology that brought news and entertainment right into the living rooms of yester-year, with classic shows like Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, or Cab Calloway’s orchestra on NBC direct from the Cotton Club, played to the audience through the airwaves. The stars of the radio shows transitioned to TV broadcasts, beaming Jack Benny, Dinah Shore, and others into the glowing screens of giant television consoles. The Pavek Museum houses the equipment that brought the world into the homes of our parents and grandparents. Steve Raymer will take us on a tour of these mechanical marvels and the wonder of broadcasting way-back when. See old equipment and broadcasting devices, recall classic shows and learn about popular local broadcasters of the past.
