A classic "doo-wop" song

The Crew Cuts - "Sh Boom, (Life Could Be A Dream)"

This version from Dennis Potter's "Lipstick On Your Collar" T.V. series

That's just fantastic, why did I never watch that series.

Thanks for the above comments, here's another "Timeless Tune", this one taken from Potter's "Pennies From Heaven" series

splendid...and ignored by all on this thread

No so fast, Tutsi . . . Party-GroovingtotheTunes.gif

Indeed, another now forgotten classic.

Here's a few for Tutsi. Don't bother tryin' ta sit still. Gotta have some pics for a long some effect.

Some great jammin' with Dickey Betts and Great Southern.

And a nice little diddy with Vassar Clements.

Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen. This is essential music when driving cross-country.

Of course, it helps mightely on those 24-hour-stop-for-gas-grits-and-piss-only to have something in yer pouch to keep yer eyes focused on the road.

Spent a few working trips down to Texas between San Anton and Austin back in '99. After my first swing thru I then came prepared - CD's of:

ZZ Top, Asleep at the Wheel, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Commander Cody, Charlie Daniels, Marshall Tucker, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Pure Prairie League, Tito and the Tarantulas, Dwight Yokam, Hank Williams, Jr., Allman Bros., Little Feat, etc. . . . you get the drift. (Yes, I have a very large collection of music.)

Working 2nd shift I cruised the countryside in my company-rented brand-spanking-new '99 Mustang GT listening to all of the above taking in the flavour of the South. At night I'd lunch (usually liquid only) in nearby Gruene, TX, which was the proud home to Texas' oldest dance hall built above the bluffs of the Guadalupe River. Unfortunately, my last trip was about 2 weeks too early. Asleep At The Wheel was booked to play at Gruene Hall. :(

Spent weekend nights down in Austin's famed 6th Street, which consisted of blocks and blocks of bars, restaurants, tattoo joints, and other venues of entertainment, all closed to auto traffic from, well, dusk till dawn. I'd hang at a storefront type bar named Generic Joe's which featured some truly awesome Texas style country rock, up close and personal. Also, names such as Janis Joplin and Stevie Ray Vaughn had played Joe's in earlier years.

There are vids with better audio quality but I chose this one for the exquisite table dance by Selma Hayek. :licklips: BTW, this movie has an awesome soundtrack!

Leo Kottke on his 12-string. Raise your hand if you've had a Pamela Brown, or 2, or 3 . . . in your life. :whistling: This was a theme song for myself and most of my friends when we were young and free and well traveled.

yeah...I remember 'ol Leo from his first albums released in 1970; like you I was on the road with me associates, all about the same age, meeting up in squalid apartments in the Bay Area and Eugene, with lots of wine, joints and psychedelics...celebrating youth and freedom...sorta like background music...

I have to revisit Tull as I came across this rare vid, possibly their first? from Hyde Park in '68. The number is "Cat's Squirrel," but since this has been shortened I've posted the full version also. This Was off their debut LP, This Was. :rolleyes:

Paul Butterfield's Blues Band is another great band relegated mostly into the dustbin of musical history as far as the main stream is concerned. A pity. White men can't jump but they can sure play the blues. Bear with the poor quality of these YouTubes at times. This one in particular exceeds YouTube's general length of 10 minutes and, like an old 8-track, must continue with an interruption. BTW, it doesn't get rollin' until just past the first minute.

I came across this vid not long ago on Google Earth. I've always wanted to go to Nepal, so it was interesting to me. Can anyone identify the song/artist? I like it.
