Top 40 Flashback - Bobbie Gentry



One of the all-time great songs of mystery - "Ode to Billie Joe," Bobbie Gentry, the #1 song this week in 1967.

August 27 is quite a day in my family:

- 16th birthday of Son #2

- 44th birthday of Brother #2

- 16th wedding anniversary of Brother #2 and Sister-in-Law #1 (well, the only one, actually)

And yes, that's right...our second son was born on the day that my brother got married, which also happened to be his birthday.

And yes, my wife and I were in the wedding party.

And the wedding was in Marin County, just north of San Francisco.

And the hospital was in downtown Sacramento.

But that's a story for another day...
