music, thoughts, books, dreams, more

Just my world of dreams, music and thoughts. Author of two books, one a novel of Love stories set in Framingham, Mass, Secrets of the Heart the 2nd book an autobiography of growing up in Framingham, Mass. Small Town America, Framingham My generation was the first teenage generation, that was when the word was coined. Ours was the generation that started cruising through town and to the drive in theater and drive in restaurant. In our area, Ernie Kampersal,from Holliston, drove his bucking car through town, picking up girls. It rose in the air, like a stallion! We went to the soda shops and played the juke boxes. It was a different town, a different time, and it belonged to us!

Louis Prima - Sing,Sing,Sing (With a Swing)

This is a great idea of what it was like....you can even see the garters that girls had to wear to hold up the nylons, before girdles, then the awful girdles move in....oh, awful....

Madeleine Peyroux - J'ai Deux Amours

Madeleine Peyroux is going to be a big, big hit.....if she keeps picking great songs...., I would love to hear her with K.D. Lang on a great song...lets see, what would be special...?

getting some fun out of life, madeleine peyroux

Wow!  Where have I been, this is a great song, and I just heard it on Seriously Sinatra the other day.....  I think that Madeleine Peyroux is fabulous...as an artist, don't you?

Manhattan Transfer Blue Champagne

Oh, such great music, they were the best, they picked great songs...that counts so much.

Laurel Massé - Scotch and Soda / Manhattan Transfer 1977

this was a big hit, back in the 40's , 50's, and reminds me of the Maridor,on Route 9  that lounge was the place to go for years....

Bert Kaempfert - A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square (1965)

another favorite, and I thought Bert kaempfert would be a treat....hardly anyone knows him today, but he was big...in the 50's, and this is typical of the 50's horn sound.  It reminds me of a night at the Totem Pole....which was our dream date in those days!

Manhattan Transfer - On a little street in Singapore 1978

just feel like some great music tonight, imagine way back to 1978,,,,and it is great!~
