I learned the truth at 17. The problem was I forgot it until I was 25.

[stryper]

Okay, I confess, I’m fond of the girls from the 60’s

I was too young to notice the innuendo in that song when it was released.

Nothing was worse than when those tiny toe clips slid off the shoe and ones face met pavement.

This came up on American Idol this week (sorry), but I hate it when the citation is wrong. This is not a Willie Nelson song, at least not originally. It was this guy:

Prefer the original by the King.

SUZI was a rocker chic pioneer (of course from Detroit) extraordinaire. She did do this radio soft one that was a big hit.

[touch]

1973

Now here is the the little hard core rocker kicking it.

Gotta say she was a hottie.

[touch]

has there been a King Harvest song posted yet?

[touch]

1979

and another rocker female. I'm a fan of this Kinks cover, and the album cover with Chrissie in her red sassy coat. hot.

[touch]

Oh you asked for a Chrissie encore?

a driving top down song no?

[touch]

You go Suzi !!

Way to keep this thing alive, people! Salute!

When I started it I "liked" each song/video posted but have been away since the 16th on vaca so I'll catch up the last few pages later.

Wife and I meandered Florida, ending up in Key West. Stayed in Cape Coral, St Augustine and Marathon. 3052 miles in 12 days.

Btw, was the site hacked by the Russians while I was gone? Ick!

Shame these ladies never got the acclaim they deserved.

[BicknellCC]

This is obscure unless you watched Saturday morning cartoons in 1970. Cheryl Ladd is one of the back up singers

 

[BicknellCC]

I had this song on 8 track, The Souths Greatest Hits. I think my tape player ate it more than once. It played as long I still had a player for it. You'd just have to put up with some dragging, and a missed word or three when you got to one of my splices.
