Living in the 70s

Cheers big ears!

History, Society & Culture

Cheers big ears!
Somewhere in the world it’s after 5 o’clock, the sun is over the yardarm and it’s time to mix a cheeky cocktail. Make ours a Negroni, please, because, as Marty has discovered, this week is Negroni week. In honour of that we have selected songs to do with drinks and drinking.  We start out cheerful enough, having a glass of champagne with Sailor, but it goes downhill pretty quickly, until we end up in a drunken piano bar with Tom Waits, down and out with Bobby Womack, nursing a shocking hangover with Kris Kristofferson before recovering with some elderberry wine with Elton John. Cheers!
