Переглядів 56 тис.9 років тому
(better quality of this video avaialble here: ua-cam.com/video/eM10425IsTA/v-deo.html ) ... 1:45 , "Cool, ! Moon Man Is Full!" What'd he say? Top Tune 17 on Seventeen this week, though nationally on the charts, Buddy Knox's "Swingin' Daddy" only got up to number 80.
Billie and Lillie - La De Dah ("Seventeen" WOI-TV Ames, IA 2/1/1958)

Clean and pristine, it's number 15 on the Seventeen survey this week. Compare to American Bandstand's version of this song here; ua-cam.com/video/9zSJHKMYDXQ/v-deo.html They might dance better in Philly, but there's more room for the cameramen to operate in Ames, and it shows in the quality of the production.

www.therenegaderoadhouse.co/ We streamed southern rock, pop and country 24/7 until 1/1/16, now shuttered because of excessive royalty rates. (The Chantels should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame...rgjraccoon) (WOI, born of the atom? see below) Saturday night, February 1, 1958, and the kids are in the WOI-TV studio on the Iowa State campus in Ames.

Tommy James & The Shondells - Mirage, the original! ( "I Think We're Alone Now" in reverse)
Переглядів 4,4 тис.12 років тому
In a UA-cam post from a couple of years ago (see Tommy James - Me, The Mob, & The Music ua-cam.com/video/r7enAd3jK9k/v-deo.html ) at 37:15 in, Tommy talks about how Mirage came about. Not only was Mirage the follow-up for "Alone Now" it was the latter song played in reverse. They slapped the tape on backwards by mistake, and out this came. So here is Mirage as Tommy and the Shondells first hear...
Betty Jo Bangs - Daddy Was A Preacher, Mama Was A GoGo Girl (pretty good quality)
Переглядів 3,5 тис.12 років тому
(3/26/13: See updated info on this story at the end of this entry) While checking out different versions of this song, I noticed something a bit odd. Both Betty Jo Bangs and Joanna Neel claim songwriting credits, and for different publishing houses. I put a pic of Neel's version on Decca about 30 seconds in. I can't seem to run across an explanation. Did Neel buy the song from Bangs and replace...
The Simpsons on Route 66! Elfman vs. Riddle
Переглядів 1,2 тис.12 років тому
Danny Elfman's theme for The Simpsons shares a bit in common with Nelson Riddle's theme for the 60s TV show "Route 66." Wonder if he realized there were TWO Springfields on Route 66? The two themes take turns piggy-backing on each other here. Presented by The Renegade Roadhouse, streaming southern rock, pop and country 24/7...find us on Facebook

Переглядів 31013 років тому
This short video vignette should please not just some of Ms. Germanotta's famed Monsters, but also those fans of classic soap products. (more below) And, it can be considered a suggestion for bar and roadhouse owners and managers who need to clear a dance floor quickly. This video nicely morphs into an operatic-like piano and organ selection that can aptly describe "The Edge of Glory" without a...

    "WOI-TV, atomic-powered television? It didn't use nuclear power, at least not at first. But it's been strongly rumored that Iowa State College (now University) got the seed money to build the station by helping to enrich uranium for the Manhattan project during WWII." Uranium was not enriched at Iowa State; it was purified. The enrichment took place at Oak Ridge, Tennessee.

    A screen full of the late Silent Generation. None of these kids are Boomers. The biggest misnomer about Boomers is that the 50's was their decade when it was clearly the late Silents.
