We start with some Doo-wop hits on this December 15th edition.
"Lookin' For My Baby" by Larry Chance. If you listened to us live, you would have heard Ron's story of doing some work with Larry in the Poughkeepsie area back in the day.
"The Stroll" by The Diamonds. Carol (Oh, Carole) by Chuck Berry.
Lost Dance Hit "I Want Your Love" by CHIC
Random 45 Pull "I'm Leaving It Up To You" by Dale and Grace from 1963. I randomly pulled this from mom's 45 collection, and Ron let me know my first favorite duo, Donnie and Marie, did a cover version!
Random Album Pull "Folsom Prison Blues", Johnny Cash's first live album from 1968. However, since the original version of Folsom Prison Blues was released on this date, December 15th of 1955 by Sun records, we opted to play the original.
Lost Motown Hit "Take Me In Your Arms" by Kim Weston from 1965.
Each week we also feature a "Then and Now." We find an original song, then play a cover. Since Jerry Wallace was born on this date in 1928, I chose his song "Primrose Lane" from 1958. The cover is by OC Smith from 1970. Which version do you prefer?
In honor of Cindy Birdsong's 86th birthday we played "Up The Ladder To The Roof."
