OT Forgotton old music
Got one of those bargain bin CDs over the weekend with some songs that I had
not thought about in a long time. Anyone who grew up in the 60s and 70s remember some of these long forgotten songs on the CD. 1) The Streak (Ray Stevens) Brings back memories of Junior High when a streaker ran by the window of my math class in 1974. 2) Spiders & Snakes (Jim Stafford) John is that your bro. ) 3) When You're Hot (Jerry Reed) Pretty funny song if you listen to the lyrics) 4) Dead Skunk (Loundon Wainwright III A station wagen kills a Skunk and it stinks) 5) Convoy (C.W. Mcall) Brings back memories of all the vans with the murals and a CB antenna on them in the mid 70s. 6) Troglodyte(Cave Man) (The Jimmy Castor Bunch) A song about how men got women way back in the cave man days. They pulled them by the hair. Bill Berckman 67 Beetle |

>>not thought about in a long time. Anyone who grew up in the 60s and 70s
>>remember some of these long forgotten songs on the CD. >> I'm a bit young for those except Convoy and The Streak. I think I must know every Ray Stevens song he ever did. I have a favorite line from one of his songs that I say all the damn time. "I used to be crazy, but I'm a whole lot better now!... Where's my horse?!" Good for getting people to threaten to Baker Act your ass. >i just recently had my dad patchhis laptop to his old record player and burn >me >a copy of "Teddybear"....love that song... The Elvis song? I have that. Jan and I bought a CD of Elvis hits but unfortunately it was missing some of the really good ones, like Don't (which fortunately I have the MP3 of) and Blue Suede Shoes. My favorite is Suspicious Minds. He also did a really good cover of the Frank Sinatra song "My Way". I listen to a lot of Miles Davis, Billie Holiday and Elvis. In between the Pantera, White Zombie and Black Sabbath, of course. K. "We're friends. You smile, I smile. You hurt, I hurt. You cry, I cry. You jump off a bridge.... I'm gonna miss your dumb ass." |

Between little crippled kids and Honey dying, you guys are just depressing.
I'll stick to Elvis' goofy lyrics about itchy fuzzy trees. K. "We're friends. You smile, I smile. You hurt, I hurt. You cry, I cry. You jump off a bridge.... I'm gonna miss your dumb ass." |
