Creedence Clearwater Revival - Lodi


Just about a year ago, I set out on the road,
Seekin' my fame and fortune, lookin' for a pot of gold.
(Things got bad, and things got worse, I guess you know the tune.
Oh ! Lord, stuck in Lodi again.)

I wanna tell you a story every man outta know
If you want a little lovin' you gotta start real slow

I dont know why TimeTells, but your pic reminds me this one, Ventura Boulevard Los Angeles 30 September 1955........

cheers Brix,

James was aged 24 at his death in 1955, too young.

There are so many backstories to this, including the one where the studio contractually stopped him from competition car racing (where he had been doing ok on the ‘controlled circuits’ among other professional drivers) and he then went into street car time trial racing where his accident occurred with a civilian driver.

Dean probably had many love affairs, but the one that stood out most was to Italian actress Pier Angeli (pic below) which was thwarted, anecdotally, by Pier’s mom for a variety of reasons incl as James was not Catholic.

After Dean’s death ironically Pier went on to marry twice (the first lasted 4yrs, and the next to a much older man, a movie producer, for 7 years) but neither lasted a lifetime.


From wiki this is Pier’s recollection of her times together, with James, some 14 years after his passing.

“We used to go together to the California coast and stay there secretly in a cottage on a beach far away from prying eyes. We'd spend much of our time on the beach, sitting there or fooling around, just like college kids. We would talk about ourselves and our problems, about the movies and acting, about life and life after death. We had a complete understanding of each other. We were like Romeo and Juliet, together and inseparable. Sometimes on the beach we loved each other so much we just wanted to walk together into the sea holding hands because we knew then that we would always be together. ”

Pier died aged 39, in 1971 from a barbiturate overdose 16 years after she & James broke up.


They had it all, for a while .......... so smile.
