Remembering The Oldies! (2)

[Colleen1]

I think this is such a great oldie. The lyrics do say something about the era the song was created in. Still, I hope you not only enjoy the music but the footage.

Nice! And this is the origianl 45rpm version. If you get this on cd, it almost always have a short instrumental interlude near the end; but it is NOT on the 45!

A popular song from the early 60s folk music craze. Every wannabe singer/guitarist did this song at some high school assembly.

Folk music was a great part of the music of the early to mid 60's; and very rare did anyone do it any better than The New Christy Minstrals.

Speaking of the early 60s, remember the Polynesian fad? I remember some friends of my parents had a bamboo bar draped with a grass skirt in their basement. This was a top 4 record from those days.

Actually, back in 1966, I saw him do this one live, in concert. He was a part of one of Dick Clark's tours "Cavalcade of Stars". Also on the bill were:

Jimmy Clanton
Gary Lewis and the Playboys
Sam The Sham and the Pharoahs
The Yardbirds

George did a great job on the song; but most people don't know that this is a cover of the song, done in 1963

Just becaue a song never made the top 40, it does NOT mean that the song was not great! Here is some forgotten doowop!
