Album Number Four Hundred Sixty. “Nether Lands” is the fourth album by singer-songwriter #danfogelberg , released in 1977. The album title is a play on Nederland, Colorado, the location of one of the studios used to record the album. My copy is a gatefold 1980s Columbia Records/CBS reissue of the Full Moon/ #epicrecords - PE 34185 Hs always has such a cast of contributors: #kennethabuttrey #alperkins #dominicfrontiere #donhenley #RussKunkel #JoeLala #frankmarocco #norbertputnam #jdsouther #johnstronach #joevitale #JoeWalsh #timweisberg #rocknroll #folkrock #softrock #countryrock #theseventies https://www.instagram.com/p/Cne4bQ8uo6a/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Rock [NEW 1978 Edition] - Manassas. From the band playing on Stephen Stills II, they now metamorphosed into Manassas via Miami recording sessions. Stills added #chrishillman (ex-Byrds, Flying Burrito Bros) and #alperkins (pdl stl) to the team, already including #fuzzysamuels #dallastaylor and #paulharris . By adding #joelala on percussion , this is the band that recorded “Down the Road” in Jan. 1973. #rockandroll #atlanticrecords #theseventies https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ1MAZgL1TR/?igshid=rw8uos8vn75r

Book of the day: (Children's edition) "Hand, Hand, Fingers, Thumb" by Al Perkins (1904-1975) and illustrated by Eric Gurney. I read this Beginner Book to my 1-year-old niece yesterday and she loved it. It's rhythmic, poetic, simple and fun. I do recommend this book as great example for getting children interested in hearing someone read to them which usually leads to an interest in reading later. #books #bookstagram #bookoftheday #alperkins #beginner #poetry #rhythm #readpoetry #reading #booksrus #children #poetic #story #fun #bookstoread https://www.instagram.com/p/B7o_FbplGp2/?igshid=3mvm0dvkqhsd

One of the other few in the Dr. Seuss-style genre that has been a hit for years in my family (and others) isn't even by Dr. Seuss! Al Perkins' "Hand, Hand, Fingers, Thumb" (1969), illustrated by Eric Gurney, is a rhythmic, almost danceable little chant about percussion-happy monkeys that every toddler I know adores. Published as a Dr. Seuss "Bright and Early Board Book" in a fantastic little pocket format, I've had this one for decades and still get a kick out of it! ⏺ ⏺ ⏺ #noodlenutsclassickidlit #noodlenutskidsbooks #drseuss #drseussbooks #alperkins #ericgurney #brightandearlyboardbooks #brightandearly #collinsharvill #boardbook #boardbooks #babyboardbooks #toddlerboardbooks #toddlerbooks #booksinrhyme #rhymingbooks #bookrhythm #rhyme #rhymes #toddler #readaloud #earlyyears #picturebook #mylibrary #personallibrary #mybookshelf #childrensbookshelf #monkeys #booksaboutmonkeys #monkeybook https://www.instagram.com/p/B0HVczNHKgi/?igshid=1bca8je8lu9sc
