185. It Ain’t Easy

After I from March 2013 started to understand correct, about what had happened with me because of these influences, things slowly developed in me. I understood that I didn’t remember anything about my original life, and I thought that I had to find out about that again, to be able to find out about what had happened with me. That was correct; as I more and more remembered my original life, I also more and more found out about what had happened with me.

When I was a teenager early in the seventies, I was interested in music and LP records. I also had an open‐reel recorder, which still was something common at that time, and I recorded records, which my friends had bought. I was interested in different types of music. One of my friends had an older brother who had some records, and he brought his brother’s records to me, so I could record them. This happened overs some time, with one record every time. His brother had fine and interesting records, which I hadn’t heard before, and I recorded some of these records.

In March 2013, I understood that I had forgotten the most of both my original records and my original recordings. I thought that I had to remember these records again, and I started to find out about them to remember these records again.

Yesterday, Saturday, October 28, 2017; soon five years after March 2013, I remembered one more of these records I had recorded from my friend’s older brother. I looked after different things on YouTube, when I saw the name of a rock band, which I immediately recognized. The band was “Three Dog Night”, which is an American rock band from Los Angeles. This band was formed in 1967, and took the name “Three Dog Night” in 1968.

When I looked at their discography, I quickly recognized the album I recorded, “It Ain’t Easy” which is their fourth album, from 1970. The first I recognized, was the title of the song “Out in the Country”; and when I listened to the songs from this album, I recognized the songs I had recorded. That was six of the songs from the album; the five songs on side one, and the second song on side two. This was typical because I didn’t have more space left on the recording tape, I could record more than four LP records on the recording tapes I usually used at that time.

Before yesterday, this album had disappeared from my mind. But now, it is like I recorded it yesterday. I remember the album very clearly, and I remember that I recorded it. When I first heard this album, it was new and interesting music for me, which I thought, that sounded fine.

I think about how this had completely disappeared from my mind; and how it now very strongly immediately is back in my mind again. Now it is as I always have remembered it. It is as if I never have forgotten it. But it had completely disappeared from my mind.
