It is the last few days of our color theme on My Lost Treasure.  The subtheme is songs with "blues" in the title.  Our next theme will be the sky, sun, moon, planets, clouds, stars, things you see when you look up.  Or things you don't see, but are up there...

Transportation is the theme on My Lost Treasure, and the sub theme is automobiles.  As always, I asked for suggestions, and I got quite a few for today's pick. The song is not an original one for Steve Miller...in fact, it's from 1948.  The original title was Mercury Boogie, it's now Mercury Blues...

It's Monday, and lots of people are feeling the Monday Blues.  So I figured I'd pick a bluesy kind of song for tonight. Mercury Blues was written way back in 1948, but tonight's version is from Steve Miller's 1976 album Fly Like An Eagle...
