Saturday, March 28, 2009. DOIN' THAT CRAZY HAND JIVE. Whatever it was in the early days, for me, the hand jive was always the classic version seen here in the first video embed which I found on YouTube. As you can see from the apparent age of the girls in this vid, the hand jive that I did in the late 50s through the 60s is still being done by contemporary youth. Like they say, rock and roll is here to stay! Good old Wikipedia has more to say on the subject:. Links to this post. Sunday, March 22, 2009.

Friday, November 6, 2009. FINALLY, IT'S HERE! As promised, I'm at long last announcing the arrival of my new rock and roll trivia book, the one I've been working on wrapping up over the summer and fall. Whew! This volume not only covers more of the early vintage stuff from the 60s and some 50s, but goes on to include popular songs and artists from the 70s and 80s. There's more of everything! Here's the official blurb:. So hang on, Sloopy, and let those good times roll, better yet, let the good times rock!

Papa Do Run: NBC stands for “NOT BACKING CHARLIE”
http://papadorun.blogspot.com/2009/04/nbc-stands-for-not-backing-charlie.html
Sunday, April 12, 2009. NBC stands for “NOT BACKING CHARLIE”. Okay, I know this isn’t my usual topic for this blog; nothing “vintage” or "musical" about it, but I just had to get this little television rant off my chest, so please, if you'll just indulge me…]. No no no – I’m not going to off myself! I’m talking about the procedural cop show, Life. Last Wednesday we saw the Season 2 finale, which couldn’t have looked more like a Series finale if NBC (a pox on their house! And scroll down to “feedbac...

Papa Do Run: THE DAY AFTER APRIL FOOL'S
http://papadorun.blogspot.com/2009/04/day-after-april-fools.html
Thursday, April 2, 2009. THE DAY AFTER APRIL FOOL'S. Okay, so there you are in the kitchen, or maybe the break room, pouring yourself a big cuppa joe after sorting things out, i.e. putting the sugar. Back in the sugar bowl. Back in the salt shaker. If you're close enough to a bird to be able to put salt on it's tail, you can grab that sucker like that (finger snap)! I couldn't agree more, but the wisdom of all those old wives is not to be tampered with on a whim! This little bird, she can fly away;.

Sunday, December 21, 2008. MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR. Here’s wishing all of you out there in the Blogiverse the happiest of holidays. I want to take this opportunity to thank all those who stop by to have a read and a listen – you’re the best! I mean that sincerely. So don’t take it personally when I tell you that I’m taking a bit of a vacation from now until New Years. Will I be lounging on some beach? Schussing down a slope? Too bad we don’t have a clip of that one, but you’ll st...Ah, the s...

Papa Do Run: ONE HIT WONDERLAND
http://papadorun.blogspot.com/2009/04/one-hit-wonderland.html
Friday, April 17, 2009. Some of my favorite songs from the "vintage years" (50s and 60s) are OHWs. One Hit Wonders. Why do you think that is? I don't think of myself as a person who automatically. Little Eva didn't stay a OH Wonderwoman. We also remember her for one of the great girl group smack-down songs of the era - "Keep Your Hands Off My Baby" which unfortunately, isn't on YT at all. That's a shocking omission I hope some YT channel member rectifies soon! Labels: Alice Wonder Land. A spin-off from t...

Saturday, February 28, 2009. HONEY, WHILE YOU'RE OUT, PICK UP A BUCKET OF SOUL AND A SIDE OF EXCITEMENT. Jackie Wilson, aka Mr Excitement, singing "Lonely Teardrops" on Bandstand, circa 1959. The song was writen by the Dee-troit duo of Tyran Carlo (Roquel Davis) and a young, pre-Motown Berry Gordy Jr. The moves are by Jackie himself. If you want the dictionary definition of "moves" just watch the video, there's two minutes and thirty-seconds of definition. What more is there to be said? Links to this post.

Thursday, July 31, 2008. NO NO NO IT AIN’T MEME BABE. So I’ve just been tagged with my first meme, by my friend Kat. Keep two things in mind: 1) I am probably the most computer-challenged person you know, and 2) I could count back in mere weeks to the first time I first ever heard of a “meme” and sort of thought I knew what it was, and now…I’ve been TAGGED! 1 Post the link to the person who tagged you and post the. Rules on your blog. 2 Share 5 songs you are embarrassed to admit to others that. 8211; I w...
