🎶 we like big eggs, itty bitty eggs
Prairie Chicken eggs, and those Ostrich eggs
we like the pretty eggs with a smooth shell
pick your fav bird, pick a real belle
we like a blue egg, we like any look 🎶

How is this for #ArchivesMusic? This poster is from a 1968 Linda Ronstadt & The Stone Poneys concert at Palo Verde High School. Ronstadt returned to her Tucson roots last year and visited the AHS archives to read her great-grandparents' letters from Sonora. #ArchivesHashtagParty

For #ArchivesMusic, Ford state dinners were the place to be. They hosted stars of opera, country music, jazz, Broadway, and of course contemporary pop acts, like Tony Orlando and Dawn (seen here). The Fords even had a copy of the latter’s album, Prime Time. #ArchivesHashtagParty
