  3. We have a relative who speaks UK English and when she complained about the US not knowing how to speak, Mrs. Notes told her "I can understand aluminium instead of aluminum because it makes a bit of sense, but why in the would would pronounce Leicester as LESS-stir?" Our sister-in-law has never complained about US English since. Notes ♫
  4. Prison is just one word to you, but for some people, it’s a whole sentence.

  7. Superman Lover - Johnny Guitar Watson I like Mr. Watson, he is a fun performer who I think left us too soon.
  8. Wibbles? Anyone heard from Wibbles? Is he OK? Hopefully just playin' hookey. Notes ♫
  9. I gigged on cruise ships for 3 years. I did 3 different tours in the Caribbean; Puerto Rico, Bahamas, all 3 US Virgin Islands, Jamaica, Caymans, Saint Martin/Sint Maarten, Cozumel. I watched a lot of passengers come back to the ship after days of beer, rum, or tequila, depending on the port of call. I came to the conclusion that the happiest drunks must be those who drank tequila. They returned to the ship with ear to ear grins on their faces. We didn't drink in port having to gig at night, except for Puerto Rico, our 'long port'. San Juan had some great salsa bands in the lounges and of course, we didn't have to work that night. Notes ♫
  10. Shouldn't W.A.P. gets a Grammy be on that list? ?
  11. OK, so I'll go with sunshine... Sunshine Superman - Donovan

  13. 4,5,6? What's next? 7 of course, and the silliest #7 song I can think of is: Seven Little Girls (Sitting in the Back Seat) - Paul Evans Please forgive me for this one. BTW, Thanks Old Joad for posting one of my favorite pieces of guitar playing by Terry Kath. He is one of my all-time favorite rock guitar players.
  14. There were a couple of guys there that few others could measure up to.
  15. My first concert was "The Kingsmen", I was in a band that was the opening act for that concert. Our agent said, "This is something new, the people come to listen instead of coming to dance." They were past their prime without Ely on lead vocals, and we blew them away. Later, we got to open concerts for groups that were better and had current top-10/Billboard records on the chart. Notes ♫
  16. Zoot Suit Riot - Cherry Poppin' Daddies
