Fedora Lounge Theme Song....

[DrQuest]

Mike Hammer?

Give that man a stogie. :eusa_clap

 

[feltfan]

Undulating undies?! Lavender spats?! :eusa_doh:

Dr. Seuss.

 

[MAB1]

Ooh that's a good one too.
Sorry to disappoint guys, but it's a bit Jazz fusion, from the 80's.
Billy Cobham/George Duke. I'm gonna check out that link to see if I can post it here first.

Billy Cobham "Spectrum" ??? Best Jazz/Rock fusion ever. My home town guitar hero, "Tommy Bolin" lit that thing up. Big Time!

 

[PabloElFlamenco]

Oh baby, take off your clothes
but leave your hat on...

Thought that was Randy Newman (or did he only cover it?)
¡Buenas noches!
Pablo

I'll vote with JamesPowers - "Style" from Robin & The Seven Hoods". Best "dressing" song I know.

And although Harlem Nocturne was beautifully chosen for the theme of the Mike Hammer TV program, it goes back much, much further. Earle Hagen wrote it for a radio series in 1940. Though it's generally thought of as a sax number, you haven't really heard it until you've heard one of guitarist Danny Gatton's renditions. Absolutely stunning.

Here's one version on AOL video:

I like the version on his greatest hits two-CD set better, but this is good.

Great song, excellent rendition.....but not a song I would choose for the Theme Song of The Lounge, IMHO. [huh]

How Do I Look? (1933)

from Fox Film My Weakness
music, Richard Whiting; lyric, Leo Robin-Buddy deSylva

How do I look? I'm all dressed up for my baby
Wish I could look as good as my baby looks to me

How do I rate? With this new bait for my baby
Tell me quick, will I click with that all important she?

When I chose brand new clothes, the gang said I was nifty
But if she should disagree, I'll sell the works for eighteen fifty

How do I look? Will I get by with my baby?
Wish I could look as good as my baby looks to me

 

[KY Gentleman]

As long as the song IS NOT by Men Without Hats I think we'll be okay...

POSSIBLE VIRUS??

Link removed due to possible trojan.

Let me know if it works, if it does.....let me know what you think. [huh]

FYI:


Be very VERY careful about this file. I liked the song so I downloaded it and later the same day, I got a message there was trojan spyware on my PC. It has hijacked my desktop and home page, and has made a major mess of things. The virus is called cryp tap-2, so guys, be VERY careful about downloading anything. I am not saying it was this particular file, but my computer was fine until after I downloaded it. I am still trying to remove it from my PC. This is one stubborn trojan.

You're kidding...?

 

[DrQuest]

You're kidding...?

Nope. As I said, I can't prove this was the file that broke the camel's hump, but I didnt have any problems with spyware and hijacking my browser, etc until after I downloaded the song. It's possible it could be something else but I haven't downloaded anything else recently except for music on ITunes. This thing is nasty and makes it VERY difficult to do anything. I ran Anti-Spyware programs all night last night and I still havent removed all of it. It changed my wallpaper, home page, and the pop ups that tell me I have spyware and that I need to download now to stop it, never stop. Didnt take me long to figure out, THAT WAS THE SPYWARE ITSELF. If I ever find the sleazebag who created this program, I will make him a soprano permanently. (And I dont mean one of Tony's familia either.) Dont know exactly where I got it but it sure has made me realize I need to be more careful. Proceed with caution.

did anyone else download it before it was removed?

 

[Tony in Tarzana]

My vote is for "Puttin' On the Ritz," specifically the version sung by Gene Wilder and the late great Peter Boyle.

 

[jimmy the lid]

I did -- but my Mac is OK. Bolthead, what was the title of the song again? (I think I deleted the file, but I just want to make sure...)

Cheers,

It was Billy Cobham/George Duke's "Do What Cha Wanna" from the Live from Europe LP. The song is perfect for this Forum.

Maybe:

Where did you get that hat,

Where did you get that tile,

And isn't it a nobby one,

And what a proper style.

I should like to have one

Just the same as that;

Where'er I go they shout, Hulloa,

Where did you get that hat.

or perhaps:

Where 'ast tha bin since' ah saw thee, ah saw thee?
On Ilkley Moor baht 'at
Where 'ast tha bin since ah saw thee, ah saw thee?
Where 'ast tha bin since ah saw thee?
On Ilkley Moor baht 'at
On Ilkley Moor baht 'at
On Ilkley Moor baht 'at

I did, and played it. Liked it, too! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

No problems. After seeing Dr. Quest's post I ran a scan of the file using Norton A/V; nothing found. Ran a partial scan on the computer, again, nothing bad found.

Cheers,
Tom
