RDP Sunday: Dementia | Chronicles of an Anglo Swiss

What better a photo to have that forget-me-nots. They are the permanent species and grow everywhere in my garden when their seeds or roots find a place.

No. I do not have dementia, nor does Mr. Swiss, but we both suffer from the disappearing memory for names- What I forget, he remembers and vice versa. At the age of 77 I find myself talking and suddenly in the middle of a sentence I forget a name of a person, or even a place name. It crept up on me over the past 10 years, not at once but gradually. However, today we have our modern memory jogging devices. I would be lost without my mobile phone. I have a page in it for anything I tend to forget. Anyone that would stuble across it would wonder if I was no longer right in my head.

♫ Who’ll Stop The Rain ♫ (Redux) | Filosofa’s Word

…Group leader John Fogerty wrote this song. Released in 1970, the song is often interpreted as a protest of the Vietnam War (like Fortunate Son), but when he performed it at the Arizona state fair in 2012, Fogerty told the crowd that he had been at Woodstock, watching the rain come down. He watched the festival goers dance in the rain, muddy, naked, cold, huddling together, and it just kept raining. So when he got back home after that weekend, he sat down and wrote Who’ll Stop the Rain, making it not a Vietnam protest at all, but a recounting of his Woodstock experience.

The line, “I went down Virginia, seekin’ shelter from the storm” gave Bob Dylan the idea for the title of his 1975 song Shelter From The Storm.

The song was a concert staple for Bruce Springsteen during 1980-81’s River Tour, as well as on the summer 2003 leg of the Rising Tour. Springsteen and the E Street Band opened with Who’ll Stop the Rain whenever it was raining.  When Creedence Clearwater Revival was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993, Springsteen performed the song with John Fogerty.
