Bob Dylan was booed off the stage a few times in his earlier years as an artist. This gives me even more respect for him.<br /><br />Have a great weekend, Chris.Rawknrobyn.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15997241410192066577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-77945666930293089502015-07-11T18:04:38.011-04:002015-07-11T18:04:38.011-04:00And as music grows into joy, I'm glad I could ...And as music grows into joy, I'm glad I could take you there.

This song to me is a lot like I Can't Find The Time, I like no matter who does it. Let's live for today def does more for me than Where were you. I don't know as 1966 was the greatest year of MY life, as I was 4, but certainly it and 1975 hold my favorite music.CWMartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06798867734074134647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-7009542359426033652015-07-10T13:37:23.342-04:002015-07-10T13:37:23.342-04:00I Love You 1,000 times?

I am going to youtube right after I comment.<br />My mom had the Allan parsons project album "Tales of Mystery and Imagination by Edgar Allan Poe". As a kid it made huge impact on me and I learned about Poe thru these songs. I now have the CD and I still love it. The Raven is my favorite but the whole album is just so cool!hollihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08558294192449866387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-90963143669327197682015-07-10T09:44:15.201-04:002015-07-10T09:44:15.201-04:00Hi, Chris!

"Sweet Pea," "Red Rubber Ball," "Hanky Panky," "Paperback Writer," "Wild Thing" "Sunny," "Lil Red Riding Hood" and "Good Thing" were all jukebox hits at the Shady Dell. <br /><br />I loved the Cryan Shames and I regard "Where Were You When I Needed You" and "Let's Live For Today" as the two best recordings by The Grass Roots.<br /><br />I never heard "Younger Girl" by the Hondells. I just listened to it on YouTube and didn't like it nearly as much as the versions by John Sebastian's Lovin' Spoonful and by The Critters. To my ears The Critters recording is much closer to the Spoonful version than the Hondells version. Of the three, The Critters' waxing of "Younger Girl" is my Pick To Click.<br /><br />I am very familiar with "Peter Rabbit." As I told you on my blog, I own a couple of salvaged episodes of Where The Action Is, and this rarity by Dee Jay & The Runaways is on one of those reels:<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vB0oxXN8cFk<br /><br />Thanks, Chris, and have a great weekend!Shady Del Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03839935472941264414noreply@blogger.com
