I’m not really sure how this song made it onto my radar back in 1993. I don’t think it was a huge hit, and I’ve never been a radio listener. Maybe I came across the video on MTV or VH1.
At any rate, I liked it enough to pick up Robert Plant’s Fate of Nations album. But the rest of the album didn’t do anything for me so I eventually sold it back and forgot all about ’29 Palms’ until a couple of weeks ago.
This now becomes a tale of technology, specifically Apple technology.
