its time to kick the ball around. recession. virgin megastore on the corner of stockton and market, where i bought my first beatles cd, closing in april. i was preparing for my first trip to europe. 14 years old walking the aisles with the ballad of john and yoko overhead. a store clerk informed me, i was young enough not to know, that that was indeed the beatles. i was captivated; beatles as i had never heard them.
the red and blue albums traveled with me to denmark and i still listen to strawberry fields and think of walking the suburbs with my big headphones trying to find the beautiful danish girl who had the most amazing cordless phone i had ever seen.
