What's wrong with this picture?<br /><br />Seems like I've that "Medicine Man" song before--or something very much similar to it. Or maybe a lot of things similar to it.<br /><br />Gogi Grant with "Wayward Wind"--I loved that song when I was a kid. My parents even took me to see her perform in Las Vegas maybe about 1961 or so. I was so thrilled to hear her sing that song live.<br /><br />Arlee Bird<br />A to Z Challenge Co-host<br />Road trippin' with A to Z<br /><a href="http://tossingitout.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tossing It Out</a><br />Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-37383989705675081182015-05-24T21:43:11.663-04:002015-05-24T21:43:11.663-04:00She's still gotta get past me, and possum gizz...She's still gotta get past me, and possum gizzards won't cut it!CWMartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06798867734074134647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-45010332903878374572015-05-24T21:42:25.585-04:002015-05-24T21:42:25.585-04:00Von Bismark?

Paterno was only in his second year of coaching at PSU when I began my college career. I got to see future pro greats like Franco Harris and Jack Ham play there.<br /><br />Word has it that Granny is whippin' up a mess of possum gizzards for Scrappy. That should be enough to tip the scale in her favor and enable her to clinch the title of Miss TM. :) Shady Del Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03839935472941264414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-70792116404867890972015-05-22T16:29:32.583-04:002015-05-22T16:29:32.583-04:00First up, I'm glad I wasn't drinking when ...First up, I'm glad I wasn't drinking when I read that first paragraph. So now I know you're Sam Drucker in disguise.<br /><br />One of the great things about Unknown Song is finding gems that really should have charted higher but by accident of taste, promo, lazy record companies, economics got the shaft. Penn Stater, huh? Did you meet Joe Pa? No matter what came after, he was a legend.<br /><br />BTW, a note from Scrappy- he says, "Hey, back off! There is no vote, I pick the winner! And if Granny wants a shot, she better have a pretty good treat lined up under the paper with her name on it!"<br /><br />Note from me- While she will qualify as a contestant- even Marcie from Peanuts and Mrs. Miller did that- there is no, repeat NO chance she will make it past me into even the semi-finals.<br /><br /><br />Without a hefty bribe. Hey, she can afford it!CWMartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06798867734074134647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-40466207095667354922015-05-22T16:22:17.833-04:002015-05-22T16:22:17.833-04:00I won't spoil it for you... that's why I d...I won't spoil it for you... that's why I didn't post a recent picture of them.CWMartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06798867734074134647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-64320070694006958662015-05-22T14:34:19.414-04:002015-05-22T14:34:19.414-04:00Hi, Chris! Thanks for taking my request seriously...Hi, Chris! Thanks for taking my request seriously and entering Granny Clampett into your TM Beauty Contest. If you allow early voting, Granny is my Pick to Click! :)<br /><br />I remember 1969 as a very good year for music and several of your selections from May of that year bring back some of my happiest memories. "These Eyes," Love Can Make You Happy," "You've Made Me So Very Happy," "One" and "The Israelites" all remind me of finishing up my sophomore year at Penn State and taking day trips out to a man made lake where college kids went to sun themselves and swim. Those songs played often on the trips out and back. Back home on summer vacation I took a job laying sewer pipe, steam cleaning heavy equipment and painting barns. I had a transistor radio along and "Good Morning Starshine" and "What Does It Take To Win Your Love" kept me company on those jobs. <br /><br />What a great doo-wop sound they laid down on that Chevrons record. I loved it! I also love to play Six Degrees on my blog and I enjoyed learning the back stories that connected The Brady Bunch with The Beverly Hillbillies. <br /><br />Thanks so much for a very entertaining post, Chris. Have a great holiday weekend, good buddy!

Of them played the guitar and the other was the singer. I could Google the difference, but what fun would that be?<br />Ignorance is bliss.<br />I'm a happy man.<br />Al Penwasserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14052950809151897315noreply@blogger.com
