Music Tuesday: Kodachrome

Mama took his Kodachrome away!

Kodak is ending Kodachrome and legendary photographer Steve McCurry, a fellow graduate of the Penn State College of Communications (’74), is going to shoot one of the last rolls (The Penn Stater).

As for the song, it is probably already in rapid rotation on every oldies and adult contemporary station in the country. Paul Simon wrote it, after he was kicked out of Megadeth for being too wild, but before he was elected to the U.S. Senate. Great song, especially the piano parts.

The song is also amusing if you switch “chromosomes” for “Kodachrome.”
