My dear wife, Cheryl, and I were both born raised in Oakland, and so did Kamala Harris!
This was a transformative year for young Joe Biden who followed the results clisely by fucking telegram people like what is going in with this guy hes fucking ancient
The Man the Myth The LEgend, Ugly Dickshot!
Sounds Great!!! Love it!
This is absolute talent. Well done! This was awesome to see and hear!
Thank you so much.
love this song
The San Francisco Seals were by far the more successful team of the old PCL. In fact, because their field in Emeryville (not Oakland) was so small, when a big crowd was expected, Seals Stadium would be loaned out to the Oaks.
Jamarcus? Lol why?
Thanks so much. Really enjoyed! Been an A's fan since 1970 and I kind of wonder how some of the newer A's fans don't appreciate the early A's days. But I know very little about the Oaks and that was just ~20 years prior.
The San Francisco Seals won 14 PCL championships compared to the measly 3 of the Oaks, who played their home games in Emeryville, occasionally playing at Seals Stadium in SF when a bigger crowd was expected. They were the first "Oakland" team to use SF facilities, as the Raiders were to play at Kezar and Candlestick in 1960 and 61.
Sacramento will eventually get a major league team when owners see the enthusiasm for the A's playing for sold out crowds. A new park will be built in the old rail yards and Sac will prosper from it..
Will they be called the Sac O'Shits? 😅
This was my maternal grandfather and this is mostly historicaly accurate.
As you can probably see, I used the a lot of the information and photos I got from you in creating the video.
Kompliment! Sehr fein gespielt und gesungen, 1000 Dank! 🌹😘🌹
2024 update... Oakland is no longer what it once was.... . . Or, will ever be again. Widespread massive homelessness, Homicides, Rape, and a mass open influx inundation of immigration have stifled the City and its sub cities with sanctuaries.. that's clogging medical institutions, and depleting all forms of government funding across the state ... where each individual immigrant are allocated 3000 to 4000 dollars a month, free housing, free medical, cell phones and a brand new 2023-24 Automobile of their choosing on Tax payer (Dime). The Crime rate here... is blind eyed and Lawlessly out of control.. the present Mayor fired the peoples Police chief nearly 2 yrs ago ... and have yet to fill his shoes.. Car jackings, Armed Robery, Rape, smash and grab flash mob retail theft runs unchecked and rampant thru out the cities.. the flourishing buisnesses and outlets you left behind are all but gone, and have moved and relocated to other states.. whats left of your downtowns.. of both San Francisco and Oakland.. are empty shells and boarded up ghost havens where the homeless live, sht and pss up and down the sidewalks begging and harassing those who are left to provide whats left of the vanishing Dime of physical currency. Loved the Video.. for all of its original intent. But Oakland's present politik and Corruption... Have left it desolate... and nearly uninhabitable.

Well done .
Thank you.
fantastic, absolutely fantastic rendition of this classic
Thank you.
A lovely rendition of a wonderful tune. Judy and I now have to work this out.@@Nostalgist1938
This song need to be to much more promoted! All the other songs about Oakland are so negative...
I love this song! I first heard it sung by Al Jolson
Might as well bring back the Oakland Oaks as a minor league team since the A's are leaving.
The 1948 Oaks could definitely beat the 2023 A’s.
Beautiful sir.
my friend Don Simon was a neighbor to John Babich- Don has some good baseball stories about Babich-
Very nice! I didn't know the intro before. 👏
If MLB expands, this league needs to be resurrected as a third major league (added to an 8 team AL, an 8 team NL and a fourth 8 team league). It would be so easy to do, 6 of the 8 cities are already represented, Arizona could be the seventh, and an expansion team in Las Vegas, Portland or Vancouver could be the eighth (or even Denver if you want to put both expansion teams in the east).
Great work sir, I'm playing along, a sort of duet. 💖💖
As a San Franciscan I love this You guys are cool
You guys are cool to
Very nice! 🤙🏼 What chords are you using?

Would be nice if baseball (like a lot of pro sports ) stopped being political and got exciting again . Would be kinda cool to bring back player/managers also feel the pitchers should bat . The whole DH thing should've never been a thing in either league if ya ask me . And if it was a thing it should just be an extra position and have a 10 man lineup . Pitchers ONLY suckb at hitting because you tell them to stop after high school or in college whenbin most cases those guys were great hitters throughout school .
Dang how many of those teams wore black and orange lol
Has anyone noticed that people in that era pronounced Los Angeles with a "guh" instead of the "juh" of today? It was the same on TV shows in the 50s.
Angels are Los Angeles original baseball team.
2:39... Lefty O'Doul. Lifetime .349 MLB average!
At 22:50, the player with the most unfortunate name in Major League history: Johnny Dickshot. Why didn't his family change their name? They did. From Dicksus to Dickshot.
4:52 All right Bill, stop arguing with that umpire. You know you can't win. EPIC!
Clarence Rowland was a boss! Don't mess with Ol'Clarence!
😈 Promo`SM!!!
Beautiful! I love it! AND ... you did the verse! (I hate it when people do "Lulu" without the verse.) Nice. Thx!
Thanks Ed. I agree that the verses (both of them) help make the song. (Am I imagining it or are you and Emile Coco the same person?)
@@Nostalgist1938 Hey, Nostalgist! Yeah, that's me. (I forgot I was logged in as Ed instead of Emile, my alter ego.) May I make a request? Have you considered doing "Imagination" (1940), by Jimmy Van Heusen and ... I forget the other guy?? It would suit your style, I think. --------------cheers, Ed
Ed, Imagination is usually sung slower than I would prefer to do it, but I’ll take a look at it. Have you tried it?
@@Nostalgist1938 No, I haven't tried it. (Not sure why.) But I think it would work uptempo. I think it's generally done too slow, now that you mention it. People sing it almost reverentially, whereas it should probably be a fun, light upbeat tune--though with some serious pauses between the sections. That's my thinking, anyway. (Confession: My voice has been giving me problems lately--to the point where I've taken up the clarinet to "sing," with the clarinet, the tunes I can't vocalize lately. )
What a swell job on this one! Glad I checked it out
Lovely work, really enjoy your videos!
Thank you very much!
You have an amazing voice!!💜
Fabulous!❤️🎶
Wish they hadn’t renamed it Triple-A West
This a wonderful! ❤️
And how!!
I expected so much and got so little. The editing, the script, and the reading of the script were all pitiful. They could have shown all the stadiums, some clips from games, and highlights of players that were not so boring. The Coast League was marvelous. So much could have been said & done in a film about it, but this was like a C project by a freshman student of film making.
Go take a dump, larry. You need it.
@breadandcircuses8127 Why don't you two go on a date?
Have you considered how difficult film editing was back then? No computers, so hours of splicing film by hand, taking whatever footage you were given and trying to make a coherent whole out of it, on a presumably tiny budget, nothing like a Hollywood flick. This is a product of its time. Enjoy it for what it is.
The San Diego Padres player shown taking BP at the 22 minute mark of this film is Johnny Jensen. As of this writing (8-8-2021), he is still alive--104 years old!
Didn't Jackie Jensen play for the Boston Red Sox.
@@victoraguilera6126 John Jensen and Jackie Jensen were different players and not related. But, yes, you are correct. Jackie was an MVP in 1958 and had his best years with the Red Sox. Watch him in "Home Run Derby Mickey Mantle v. Jackie Jensen S1 E26.
@breadandcircuses8127 By not dying yet. You new at this?
Oh youre amazing,hope youre having a good day
Just found this film. Very enjoyable. wow, 188 games a season, didnt know they had that long of a schedule.
Nice! Great vocal and great uke work. (Funny thing, tho: at 1:20 I thought you were about to go into an Inkspots-style repeat of the first chorus in baritone-voice talking mode. Didn't know there was a second chorus.) Thx!
The City Of My Birth. God Bless (And, Save.) Dear Old Oakland.
