Greetings fellow Scott's, number crushers, and Caber Tosser's. Just getting back to BOINC and figured this would be a good place to hang up the ol' digital shingle.

On the topic of tunes, I'm a bit of a jazz fan and Euge Grove is on the top 10 of my artist list. A good easy up tempo intro to his work is Play Date, on the same titled album from '02.

Many people have heard his music but couldn't tell you who played it. Many years ago my alarm clock was tuned into a radio station that played this song every morning before they aired a syndicated radio show. I liked the music but had no idea who it was but a few years ago I saw the guy playing it on TV or a video.

Released in 1996 Junior Brown - Surf Medley


Here's the back story about him...

As soon as I started listening i thought Plup Fiction !

How about some old school rockabilly surf! I had never heard of these guys but ran across them on youtube. The guys on the guitars kill it. I love it. From 1962...

Little Remy & The Flying Rockers - Shadoogie

I think this is just the Flying Rockers. Little Remy seems to be a 50s era Bobby Rydell wannabe.

EDIT: They're Dutch!

The wonderful voice of Nanci Griffiths who died last week. RIP Nanci - your music was spectacular

I heard this song on XM today and it took me back to simpler days in the early 70s listing to music on an AM radio.

From 1970, Brian Hyland - Gypsy Woman


When I saw the artist's name I was surprised to realize that is same person who had the 1960 bubblegum pop hit "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini"
