    IM only 39 years old and I've been listening to LaVern Baker since childhood!! She was also friends with my Adopted grandmother Linda Hopkins!! WOW, talk about Two respectable ladies with hearts of gold!! Im thankful i had older parents that had this music laying around the house to expose me to an Artistic voice such as Ms. Bakers

    Something about her voice--she had a unique quality to it. I'll never forget the first time I heard her on the radio. If you're feeling sad, just listen to her sing "Tweedlee Dee". Great lady!

    Love LaVern Baker and I never heard this so, thank you. Interesting thing about this tune is that I could swear that I hear Thurl Ravenscroft as the single male back-up vocal.
    In doing a little research, it seems that he did a number of songs with famous artists in this capacity and while I couldn't find him credited on this tune anywhere ~ I'd bet a huge bowl of Frosted Flakes that it's him.
    Ggggrrrrrrreeeeeaaattt!!!!

    Fantastic ! thank you - I was searching for this track for a long long time. Do you know if the studio version has ever come out on a CD ?

    • @ausfan100
      @ausfan100 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, it's easy to find on at least 3 of her CDs including a dbl on Jasmine.

    Lavern had so many of her great tunes stolen and "copied" by white pop singers like Georgia Gibbs, Patti Page, until she finally sued Gibbs for ripping off a tune espe. written for Baker; "Tweedle Dee"--Baker lost but it made headlines. This was used as a big plot device in "Dreamgirls."

    @bobbywinterz For me, it does not matter the color of human skin. As for science - I met the view that the Hyksos were dark-skinned, and the ancient Egyptians had a reddish tinge to the skin.

    @SandySummers And what if that happened? It's quite stupid to reduce a person's whole entire life's meaning to one incident. What about her selfless action of taking in a child and adopting her raising her as her own? What about the 20 years she serves as music director at a venue on a military base in the phillipines and entertaining our servicemen? You talk about a race card but then make an ignorant statement about black people murdering black children You are sick.

  • @moorzeekable
    @moorzeekable 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @bobbywinterz I 'm at a loss. You historian or anthropologist? No one can say what race were our ancestors, and as there was a division and whether it has been.

  • @Mongo76
    @Mongo76 14 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    @SandySummers Get a hobby and a life instead of running around in chat rooms slandering deceased music legends based on hearsay. That's all, toodles.

  • @moorzeekable
    @moorzeekable 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @bobbywinterz Do not exaggerate. Egyptians were not black. Dark-skinned -yes. Sorry for my bad english

  • @SandySummers

    @Mongo76. Stop complaining because someone put you in your place!

  • @SandySummers
    @SandySummers 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Mongo76. LaVerne could take a lesson from Coretta Scott King or Rosa Parks. The latter 2 ladies had more reason to act out, but chose to take the high road. Why don't you take the high road and stop defending bad behavior? Heroin addiction and inappropriate behavior in the company of minors is bad behavior. Check yourself.

    On Dick Clark's Caravan of Stars tour circa 1960, fifteen yr. old Annette Funicello was one of the stars. Laverne was throwing the "f" word around alot. Annette's tudor/chaperone told Laverne that there were minors around. Laverne replied, "If she's not old enough to hear this language, maybe she shouldn't be on this tour". I lost alot of respect for Laverne after reading this story, told by the tudor herself.
