Ryan -- You're welcome!
I first discovered ToP at age 9 (ca. 1972) right after we'd moved to
the Bay Area and they were just starting to get airplay on KFRC for
their one and only single, You're Still a Young Man. I rode my bike
all over Walnut Creek -- Riv HQ is not far from the apartment building
I lived in, now converted to cheesy condos -- and dreamed of growing
up to become a funk musician. That led to a million years of school
bands (and band geekdom), drum corps and twenty years of gigging in
clubs and pit orchestras. How I got into bikes professionally is
another story.
Off to the Oregon Handbuilt Bike Show this afternoon, to see what it
looks like when you combine science, art and craft in one room. I'll
take pix. (Riv content -- riding the All-Rounder there, clad in my
lovely, rumpled MUSA shirt.)

Beth OMG! Thanks for the Vintage Tower of Power I have been
listening to/catching in concert TOP for 30 years but have never seen
this type of vintage clip. The Steven the Funky Doctor: Kupka is my
hero.
Riv content hope you find your wool sweater or a suitable
replacement.. Damn Nieces!

I wouldn't normally bring this to the RIV list but I feel I've exhausted my
options.
I once had a Bontrager wool-blend cardigan sweater, one of those teal-blue
ones with the olive and white trim down the sleeves, ages ago. I liked this
sweater a LOT because it had my initial on the front and fit me really well.
I loaned it to my niece and she wore it for a few months. Then, about two
years ago, I asked for it back and she kept putting me off until, many
months later, she finally admitted to me that she wore it to a restaurant
in Seattle -- and accidentally left it there. She didn't realize it until
she was halfway back to Portland.
Call that sweater gone. ..::sigh::..
Anyway, I've been looking for a replacement all over the internet and
elsewhere and have come up empty-handed.
So finally, I'm asking around.
If you know of where I might possibly find this sweater in a mens' large,
please please let me know and I will follow up, going as far as to make the
current owner an offer.
Thanks --Beth
