A function of age III

Yesterday, I listened to a radio station that was having a Throwback Thursday.  I heard "I Feel Free" by Cream followed by Peter Gabriel's "Solsbury Hill."

Just for a moment, I thought, "Throwbacks?  Why, I remember hearing both of these songs for the first time only, um, well, 40 years ago...when they were still throwbacks--more recent throwbacks, then, though."

Admittedly, there's no disputing in 2021 that songs released in 1966 and 1977, respectively, are throwbacks.
