July 1969: Junior Walker, "Honky Tonk Women" and Apollo 11


Junior Walker and the All Stars

It's July again and time to remember some of our younger days.

Back in the middle of July 1969, everybody was talking about Apollo 11.  We were glued to the TV for the launch, the moon landing, Neil Armstrong walking on the moon and the successful return to earth.    It was so exciting to be alive that week.

Of course, there was also some pretty good music to keep us busy down on the earth.

My favorite songs from that summer were "What does it take" by Junior Walker & The All Stars and "Honky Tonk Women" by The Rolling Stones.
