Holiday Inn/Holidome

As I was picking a vinyl to listen to yesterday on my retro phono
player, I stumbled upon a Blood, Sweat and Tears album.

I have not listened to this vinyl in years but I had a flashback
in my mind (such as it is).

I regressed back in time to the early 70's. I noted that I wrote the date of 03/03/70 on the vinyl album cover. Then I thought of the Holday
Inn and its Holidome feature.

We stayed at Holiday Inns on our treks back to Ohio from Winsconsin
when our two (at that time) child persons were traveling with us.
The reason that I thought of this is that when the child persons
were sleeping (or at least we thought they were sleeping), we sneaked
out of our room and went to the Holiday Inn lounge to listen to their
"live (or barely alive) entertainment". It seems that all of the
Holiday Inns we stayed at had lounge singers that sang Blood,
Sweat and Tears classics such as:

Spinning Wheel
And When I Die
God Bless the Child
You've Made Me Very Happy

As I recall, I got sick and tired of Spinning Wheel. Now it does not
sound too bad. I have not heard that song in many years.

God bless the vinyls. May they live forever.....
