Even jukeboxes back then (around Philly) had the ALBUM in them (cost you TWO quarters to play the whole thing). Well, it WAS 2 LPs.<br />--Sgt. Pepper - another good choice.<br />--SNF - still good (after all these years)<br />--FCA - not bad at all for a LIVE album.<br />--Hootie's cracked rearview mirror...another GOOD album.<br />--Fleetwood's Rumors - again, classic album.<br />--Never into Morisette or King (even though she and Goffin wrote some GREAT songs).<br /><br />--That was one WILD 6-degrees. Never knew the WOMAN behind Betty Boop (just the voice - Mae Questel aka Olive Oyl)<br />And never knew Mitch Ryder did a cover for that song...amazing.<br /><br />--That was a good M10, too...The TWIST makes the #1 spot.<br />--Jana Kramer strikes again <br />(pain never looked and sounded SO good)<br />Bobby Vinton tops the list AGAIN...my Mother is looking down and LOVING this!<br /><br />Excellent ride this week.<br /><br />Keep those hits comin' up there, brother.Bob G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09222203353717749897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-1271719873778483032015-11-29T16:02:04.890-05:002015-11-29T16:02:04.890-05:00Yeah, and the one action figure Bobby doesn't ...Yeah, and the one action figure Bobby doesn't have...CWMartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06798867734074134647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-37946319738552850172015-11-29T15:42:42.756-05:002015-11-29T15:42:42.756-05:00Yeah, that Spock was sure a work in progress.

Thinking about doing an "albums I wore the tracks off of" list soon.<br /><br />Female President- I have no problem conceptually, but I'm willing to wager we wouldn't agree on a specific candidate ;) I was a big Christine Todd Whitman fan back in the day.<br /><br />Jana a plain Jane... I think I see the granny fascination now, lol!<br /><br />Glad you liked Islandis, hope you'll like my next new discovery next week...CWMartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06798867734074134647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-30216745743154177132015-11-27T11:29:40.002-05:002015-11-27T11:29:40.002-05:00Hi, Chris! Happy Thanksgiving, Scrappy! Happy bi...Hi, Chris! Happy Thanksgiving, Scrappy! Happy birthday to your Time Machine. It hasn't aged a bit!<br /><br />I am using a tinny sounding borrowed laptop again today and up to my ears in family holiday celebrations. My time is limited. <br /><br />1964 was berry berry good to me. I could list my faves from your post but, in doing so, would suffer a serious case of carpal tunnel. The Billboard singles and albums leader board is interesting but scares me. 50 years from now, will the Beatles, Elvis and the Stones still make the list, or will more recent hit makers fill those positions? Case in point - I couldn't name a single Mariah Carey song or album if my life depended on it. <br /><br />I enjoyed Islandis. They reminded me of the New Wave 80s. I am definitely singles oriented. The only two albums on your lp list that I have listened to all the way through are Sgt. Pepper and Thriller. I studied Sgt. Pepper in a mass media course my freshman year of college. Thriller is all killer - no filler.<br /><br />Interesting Betty Boop bio. My vinyl collection included many recordings performed and/or written by the great Chuck Willis.<br /><br />Debby Boone on Billboard's biggest hit singles list? What's next... a lady president? :) I like country music about as much as you like heavy metal, but I enjoyed Jana's video. It's a cleverly written song. Too bad she's such a plain Jane Hathaway! :) Me likey your #1 - Silversun Pickups with Nightlight!<br /><br />1963 next week? You're getting warmer, good buddy. Keep heading in that direction. My favorite year is 1905.Shady Del Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03839935472941264414noreply@blogger.com
