Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

[Passinwind]

Have I mentioned my new bass build wot's going on as I type?........
Fat Freddy's Special K

Way cool. You already had me at non-FSO, but that has a lot more going for it than that.

Happy Soulful Sunday...

A song that makes you want to swing. From a golden era that's long past.

I think that the crackling when the needle hits the vinyl adds to the sound. Somehow that noise makes it real in my mind.

If I am not mistaken, the late Duck Dunn is playing bass.

In ~81, when I was playing with a group in a Miami Beach Hotel, a guy who worked there asked if a friend of his could come sing with us. We were a little reluctant 'til she sang her first couple of words. No mistaking that voice-it was Shirley. She sang two songs: Johnny B. Goode and Will you Still Love Me(both of which we were able to fake). Sure wish we'd been recording that night.

Today is national bird day. I'm going out to visit the birds.

It's also national whipped cream day. I'll have to listen to Herb Alpert tonight.

Given enough whipped cream, probably able to sculpt a Norwegian Blue.

Another great song written by Carole King.

My estimation of violating the moral clause of carnies sounds like "someone's daughter".

Big fan of Flora Purim. Once nearly bought a berimbau because of her husband. "Nearly bought" meaning the day I find one in a shop is also a day I am just a little short of coin. Going to say that's my version of the story.

​

We saw her and her husband a few years back. She has no voice left. Very sad. Her daughter was with them and did almost all of the singing.

This album piqued my interest in the Tijuana Brass.

It also peaked my interest in the "other delights!"

Tainted Love by the synth-pop duo Soft Cell was popular in 1981. Here is the original 1964 northern soul version by Gloria Jones. Way ahead of her time.

That chooga-looga was really popular with the kids for a while ...
