I'm a couple days late but George Harrison's album All Things Must Pass was released 47 years ago, Nov 27, 1970. Can you believe it? This is a repeat but it's one of my favorite songs...
George Harrison "What is Life"

Ok Pete. This one is for you. It's one of my favorite Australian garage bands, The Vines. This song is kind of like Dick Dale meets The Clash.

It was either that or a re-post of the Smokey Mountain Oyster Band's Rudolph the Redneck Reindeer.

Let's go way back to 1958 for Harold Jenkins' (aka Conway Twitty) first #1 hit. He was definitely channeling some Elvis.
Conway Twitty "Its Only Make Believe"
If you were to nail this song on Karaoke night in Nashville women would be flinging their panties at you

Just got back from a week in Nags Head, NC USA. Surf central for the US mid-Atlantic area. It's getting crowded there due to greedy land owners and developers building huge 10-15 BR houses along the beach. The best part of the week was driving up the beach road each morning while listening to the Beach Boys channel on XM on the way to the Morning View Coffee House to get a perfect espresso drink made by authentic surfer girls. This is for the all surfer girls in Nags Head.

I've had my fill of The Beach Boys on XM this summer but here's one last song with Dennis Wilson on lead vocals. I can't help but turn up the volume when they play it. Everyone considers Brian Wilson and Mike Love the front guys for the band but Dennis Wilson was the only true beach boy who surfed and raced at the drag strip. From 1964...

It’s September!
Autumn is here and we are all getting older, whether we like it or not.
So a good time to listen again to the Kurt Weill classic, September song as covered by Lou Reed.
Moral: You’re never too cool to die so live while you can! Lou did, albeit it ended up killing him.
Going way back again to 1959. Everyone attributes the song Kansas City to Fats Domino but he didn't write it. He didn't even record the best version of it. Wilbert Harrison did...
