From one Annie to another -- welcome! Thanks for listening . :?D Note that Mick admitted this was entirely a Keith Richards song.

You're most welcome and thanks for listening !

Maybe they needed a giant metronome? Cool trivia, David!

Have you seen the Bo Diddley cover on this channel? th-cam.com/video/13PuBRexmfU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=yihBUROp5jjEjGJY

Thanks, David. No other channel has this one. Just shot the best-sounding hard rockin' video I've ever attempted. The cam's AVC circuit didn't kick in, distortion is negligible and volume up there. I've known of this famous British quartet forever but never heard them until now. Great song.

Three times a charm. Quite a success story; too fictional for Hollywood.

Thanks for the compliment I always enjoy sharing my music knowledge with my fellow music aficionados.

@@stevevilinsky7464 You're welcome here. The mix changes constantly.

I’ll be around,thanks.

Que?

@AnnieVanAuken I thought I heard that in those lyrics.

Yah, that's what he said. LOL Wild and wooly and infested. He's in sore need of a kerosene bath.

Glad you like it. There's so many of these late '40s C&W 78s here because I bought bulk lots from a seller in Arizona.

How prescient of you! :?D Alright, an explanation is necessary. There's about 5800 videos on this channel. The first 300 were made before I discovered how to eliminate the visual hum present here. So this is one of the Terrible 300.

Peachy, what is your name may I ask? Thanks for the info on Howard Vokes. You're most welcome to comment here anytime! Did you know that Merle Travis wrote "16 Tons"?

I'm Adam, 63 y.o. & a lifelong music junkie with a particular fondness for folk music. Meeting Howard Vokes and getting to know him was just one of those weird coincidences, or synchronicities, that the fates brought about. Was very sorry to hear of his death (in 2018). Love the channel, btw. You have great taste in music! Hoping things are good with you 🌞

@justpeachy4938 Adam-- I'm with yah on folk music! Just this morning I located here among the countless records ELEKTRA Folk Sampler #2. It includes one track I cannot wait to process: Alan Arkin singing "The Crawdad Song" from ELEKTRA album #21. PS-- thanks! That you're here checking out my eclectic taste in sounds says much about your preferences. PPS-- are you familiar with Greg Brown?

A masterpiece song from his best LP.

Her face!

The "I....I.....I..." part was imitated by Eddie Murphy on his 1st comedy album in a James Brown routine that nailed the Godfather of Soul's later act. At one point Eddie says "I...I..."just like this record and the audience fills in the spaces with "I...I..." "Touch muhself! AOW!"

I wonder if Duane was playing this with the Hour Glass?

You're welcome! Thanks for listening. Which LP did your folks have, the Percy Faith or the Great Songs?

Thanks, David! :?D

I'm wondering if the 1960 song "Alley Oop" was inspired by this vocal? Up next a famous soul singer's first record.

My friend Chuck Askernee liked the show so much he named his band after it .. The Untouchables .. they were on MCA in the states & Stiff in the UK 🇬🇧 ! Mod / Ska band

A classic mid-1950s film clip has Pat Boone finger-poppin' awkwardly as he sings, "Tutti Fruitti". So square and different from Richard!

We got a genuine eccentric blues shouter next! Tenor saxophonist Lee Allen had a minor 1958 hit, "Walkin' with Mr. Lee".

Which part?

1906. Incrível!

Thank you too! Here's my latest from Pet: th-cam.com/video/sbad8bXGQAk/w-d-xo.html Will add "Downtown" soon.

Any capybaras?

In a time before transistors this song was listened to over tuba radios. (Three valves on that Sousaphone!)

@@AnnieVanAuken Music, & the technology we listened in on, was much better in those days. That's my un grid biased opinion! I'll never become a 'collector' of transistorised equipment 🙂

@@tiga4180 I had the first American transistor radio and didn't realize it. Bought this GE radio at a junk store for $2. It needed a wire soldered on the battery cage, so I was set. A large radio and heavy, as the case seemed indestructible-- metal under a skin? Nice to cradle in the left arm while walking, also It had a sturdy handle so if necessary you could swing this at an attacker and cause major damage. But the sound, awesome, full tone, plenty of bass with the most delightful faint white noise at zero volume. Ran on 6 D cells. We were light years behind Japan on components in the '50s. They had small, square clear plastic variable caps for frequency tuning while we were still using metal knife blade monstrosities outta the 1930s fer chrissakes!

@@AnnieVanAuken Yes, recall marveling at those Japanese miniaturised tuning caps & the dinky little IF cans. What let things down was the tinny sound from the tiny speakers. Good that you got awesome sound from your transistor radio. There are still folks who prefer the sound of tubes

@@tiga4180 I have a late November day memory of walking up our gravel driveway, home from school, the GE radio cradled in my left arm as scattered globs of snow (not flakes) gently fell. On the radio, a brand new song just released by the Beatles, "Maxwell's Silver Hammer". It was such a uniquely serene moment that the memory's stayed forever. Although it was a transistor radio, this was more a small suitcase. What sound!

As you know there are many more small indie labels than nationally available ones, so as you suggest, many worthy songs are lost before they can be heard by a wide audience. This was a unique, and to the benefit of the Capris, a fortuitous case where one individual saw the value of their song, touted it to friends and scraped together the necessary funds to buy song rights and further to incorporate a record label to showcase it. It didn't take long before an established label arranged to distribute "There's a Moon Out Tonight" beyond the NY Tri-State area.

Mr. Waller regrets...

I try! Somehow these transfers from vinyl sound better than dubs from mfr. CDs.

Part of the celebration. The last thing Howard says is "Four Seven". Incredible.

Ray You're welcome! There's a special treat in the hopper: 1938 BG with Harry and Ziggy on trumpet, Jess on piano, Dave pounding the skins, Adrian and Bud on sax, and another Goodman on bass. In a few hours....

I wasn't released, I escaped.

@AnnieVanAuken , remember when 'Escapism' came out?

@@donotneed2250 I'm a registered Escapist. Escapism's my stock in trade.

Oh that picture with all those C A P R I S spelled out vertically. I'm proud of all involved with this record. Every name, Italian, and my Paternal Grandparents were from Amalfi.

Wow, thank you so much for the kind words! Yes, this song is marvelous. Glad you liked the trivia.

Greene's a legend because he's one of us: a compulsive collector of sounds.
