Minnesota Blues

As a youth Growing up in Minnesota I remember many sad songs About Love being found And then lost. In the 50's, The first song I remember Is titled - The Tennessee Waltz. A favorite of my parents, Danced to by many Still to this day. As a teen in the early 60's A song titled - Patches And the phrase - Shutters All torn. Broken hearts, Broken lives, Suicide Later, a song titled - Ruby, Don't take Your Love To Town. Reminded me of Vietnam And All the Dear John's Received by so many GI's. Tears and heartbreak so far away. Sad memories, so many, Still to this day.
