Ha, I just found my copy at a garage sale. Inside is a cardboard cut-out of an album that says, “I bought this Album for you as a gift…sorry, I couldn’t afford the record!” below that is a place to sign your name. Date on back says 1962.

Cool !!!!! I have this album in my collection because I was 2nd Trombone when we recorded this in 1966. I was a senior at the time and we recorded this in the school auditorium.(pretty crude compared to today) I also helped arranged this version of Louie Louie for the band. Waldo KIng was the director and built the band at Franklin. Great flashback

Hello, Led Zeppelin. From what little I’ve been able to gather, the restaurant was being sued by multiple parties by for alleged Copyright Infringements. The cost of defense was, apparently, not worth it for a new eatery, which usually loses or breaks even for a couple of years. It may have been less about the cost in terms of money and more the cost in terms of time. I don’t live anywhere near it’s location or I would have been among the first customers. I wish Mark & Deb the best of luck as they carry on with other pursuits. Peace & Love to ALL.

Elvis is still the King. Although he was already dead considering that 1977, his music still sounds extremely fresh and modern. His legendary songs can hear it once again and yet again. It is so lousy that a lot of talented men and women have large problems in authentic life. Elvis may be the ideal!

The question is typically asked who it was that from the Beatle while using the most talent. I would say it absolutely was the amazing mix of all four Beatles, the music has created it so one of a kind. Exclusively, needless to say, was the relationship involving the two lyricists and composers, Lennon and McCartney. But John Lennon had produced also great solo songs, maybe he was the greatest solo artist in the four Beatles.

It really is astonishing that Kurt Cobain nonetheless has a lot of fans. His audio is basically unique and it is going to be memorable. Quite a few wonder still, why did Kurt committed suicide. I think he was so depressed that he could not even save his music. Kurt, you are the greatest!
