lol sure does have that 70's feel. I have a bit of a soft spot for the 70's, surprisingly!

No, that song was a hit in 1980 (the USSR hosted the Olympics that year). *Shakes head* why do I remember that?

I have a Best of Abba CD that goes on now and then. Abba is schmaltzy but I happen to think it is good schmaltzy music.

Well, the 70's Disco era hadn't quite died yet lol

[Shangas]

Listening to some jazz I haven't heard in a long time. Bringing my Glenn Miller collection out of retirement!

**Blows off the dust**

Current track - "The King Porter Stomp"

 

[Dan'l]

Ella Fitzgerald

Ella for Lovers

 

[Fletch]

music to be still recovering by

A Peach of a Pair - Roy Fox & Band, 1931. Al Bowlly puts it over lightly and politely, with a rather un-commercial sounding early Fox outfit. Last chorus features something like a dinner gong, which presumably doesn't have to do with the golf theme in the lyric.

Shine - Red Nichols & World Famous Pennies (all 12 of 'em), 1934. "The ex-puhgaited vehsion." What? "The one without the hair is curly and the teeth are pearly." There's your record - now - buy it!

On Your Toes - Ruby Newman & Orch., 1936. Featuring Buddy Clark, in lighter voice than usual, and a novelty for those times, a hot flute solo.

"Sound Archives." Bleh. What a name. So evocative of dowdy, overheated fluorescent-lit spaces and intensely colorless unpersonalities whose every word and gesture might as well be shhhhh.

B.A. Rolfe & the Lucky Strike Orchestra are too good to just be sound in some archive.
