After reading Crutch in the bangkok Post who writes about Louie, It's driving me mad trying to remember the song way back in the 50s? containing the words 'Who's Loui? He was mad" Any wrinklies out there who can remember it, or am I rambling? Like Rose?????

The only 50's song I could find was Richard Berry in 1957 the song was Louie Louie. 

You can listen if you google it and it comes up on Utube.

Louie Loo-ie oh no, we gotta go - no no no no

 

was it the kingsmen?

I thought Rose was cracklin’ !

“ I’m the guy who found the lost chord “ - Jimmy Durante 

 

an excerpt:

” 

People said I was mad. but that didn't trouble me
They said Mozart was mad
They said Puccini was mad
They said Louis was mad
Who's Louis? My uncle, he was mad!

So let's celebrate I'm feeling great
I'm the guy that found the Lost chord “

It was my poor attempt at humour:

 

 

But am with you on the wine, in my drinking days a bottle of Portuguese Rosé  on a U.K. summers day was heaven.

Roger is a nice guy who lives here since forever. He also wrote a book about his life. He traveled over land from the UK to Thailand - about 50 years ago.
