Did have a baby who loved to wear bobby sox at a hop or two back then.
Should have held onto that one.
Might be boppin' grandkids on me knee.

Belmonts....Tell me Why.

The Sherbs - No Turning Back

The Sherbs from Australia were very big in my region of the USA in the early 80's...I still love to play 'em on the radio...

PROUD TO BE TFFE!

This one deserves a few listens......
Rama Lama Ding Dong.
Few songs fully embody the true spirit of 50s and 60s doo wop.

This is one.

First, the Boppers remake. (They are from Sweden).

[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLAKhWpXz2U]The Edsels did the original.

An amazing and awesome version of the original...maybe from the master tapes.....you can actually hear the ambiance from the room in the sax solo.

The Pearls....Let's go Steady.

This guy is sitting on some great material...dunno where he got the original sources.

Love the VU meters.......they are set to respond to the saturation levels on magnetic tape that was used to record this stuff.

"Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once."

Another......The Timetones....In My Heart.

I'll dedicate this one to the doe-eyed Uli. (You had to see the pic....).

"Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once."

Re-watching BSG I've found myself listening to the soundtracks by Bear McCreary. Tracks such as this.

Lang......what can I say.

But the gurl sure can sing...

This is an amazing example of what a few people on this earth can do with the talents that God gave them.

Hallelujah........indeed.

All of them.

Roy Orbison....
Pretty Woman.........or, women as it may be.

EDIT.....now I go to bed, but you must know I could not stop at the last cut........
This cut of Only the Lonely has never been equaled.

"Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once."

Really pissed........we're gonna do........fractions.

Only a few geeky types will get this parody.

Tom Leher was a professor gone wild in his time.
Veeeeeeeeery creative.

And did not mince words........

New Math........

Of course, he also did Fractions..........

Of course, there was his top ten excursion into real life......otherwise known as Pollution........

And his real rants about.....Catholism......my favorite.

He got a little sick at times.......witness How could he????

But........

I wish he was currently running for pres.......
'They love us everywhere we go.........Send the Marines.........
No offense to the Marines, of course....it was just a parody.........

"Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once."

Anybody think this song goes both ways?

OHshit.....
Watch out for this gurl.....

Buyin' her some fruity drink 'cuz she can't shoot the whiskey......

Carve my name into his legacy.....maybe next time he'll think before he cheats......

And it won't be on me.

Meow!

Peetie Wheatstraw.........
You can't stop me from drinking....
You can't stop me from drinking............
whenever I feel so blue..........
Come by and help me sweet little baby,
and I'll see what I can do.

Actually.....the lyrics are......

You can't stop me from drinkin'
It ain't no use to try
You can't stop me from drinkin'
It ain't no use to try
Because the way you treated me
Hoo-hoo-well-well, I'm gonna drink until I die

You can't stop me from runnin' around
Also from having my ball
You can't stop me from runnin' around
Also from having my ball
Because I am tired, ooo-well-well
Of the other man kicking in my stall

(harmonica & instrumental)

You can't stop me from talkin'
To the brown walk-ups down the street
You can't stop from from talkin'
To the brown that walk up an down the street
Because you are chasing these peppers
Hoo-well, like a policeman on his beat

You can't stop me from drinkin'
Whenev' I feel so blue
You can't stop me from drinkin'
Whenev' I feel so blue
If you ever have been mistreated
Woo-well-well, you would be drinkin', too.

Etta, the dearest soul that she is, has been fighting the last few legs of her battle to stay alive recently.

In her honor....The Very Thought of You....

And I must say, Beyonce did her quite the justice in the movie....

Solefald - Nutrisco et Extinguo

I don't understand a word they're saying but the harmonies, speed changes and sycopation are just magical to hear. BTW they are a bit metal. They appear to have incorporated a religious song, Gloria in excelsis Deo, in the middle of the song. Quite a fun thing to listen to even without knowing Norwegian
