The background singers in the song are 1960's sexy. 😄

I have been lucky enough to have seen both of these guys as they tour small venues solo.

 

One of the most influential bands ever.  This was after Alex left the BoxTops having penned the Letter.  This has always been a favorite of mine and oddly enough I heard it last night.  Chris Bell was quite a prodigy as well.

 

 

Then this guy, started with the Modern Lovers.  None other than Sid Vicious is purported to have said, "If it weren't for Jonathan Richman I would hate all music."

I guess I am back in here.  Sadly, my wife hears this song from me often.

If she's up there in the mornin'
Cookin breakfast cereal
I'm up there borin' her
With my comic material
She's there frying up eggs and yolks
And I'm there thinkin' up ha ha jokes

Here are some photos that were taken over this past weekend at Bob Cats Page 200 Celebration Party. 

In the last photo we see our Host Bob being tended to nicely by two cuties. It's good to be the Creator.  😃

RIP Harry Nilsson. Jan 14 1994 

 

Nilsson Never—Like, Never—Performed Live

Even though he was enjoying significant success on the charts and at glitzy awards shows, Nilsson could never bring himself to perform concerts. Stage fright and bad experiences onstage in his youth led him to avoid even one-off shows, let alone touring. He was eventually talked into several television appearances that did not involve an audience, but for the most part, his career consisted of virtuosic vocal and instrumental performances in the recording studio exclusively.
