Now there's a theme for a show. What did we listen to? and why?
memories....
Anything by Simon and Garfunkel, but I especially remember "The Boxer" and "America" (which I tried to filk at one point for Pennsic...)
The soundtracks from Pippin and Camelot (loved Robert Goulet!)
Beatles, but mostly the more obscure things...Rocky Raccoon was a fav.
Miriam Makeba - now there's a name I haven't heard in awhile. Still have one of her LP's, but nothing to play it on.
Any 50's do-wop stuff...that was my dad's era. He remembered hanging on the street corner in Washington Heights with the guys from The Four Seasons...
Disco...Donna Summer...The Bee Gee's...Disco Duck...where did I put my dancin' shoes?
Kermit the Frog singing "It's Not Easy Being Green"
Janis Joplin singing "Me and Bobby McGee" and mom singing along..
The Mama's and the Papa's singing "Creeque Alley"...and Mama Cass' wonderful voice...
Barry Manilow was a fav for awhile...I especially liked "Mandy"...
Neil Diamond..."Sweet Caroline"..."Song Sung Blue"...."Cherry Cherry"...
Better quit now...
