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!

Three Caballeros - You Belong to My Heart

When Magoo Flew

Wile E. Coyote vs Road Runner

Laurel and Hardy - Way Out West (1937)

Saturday matinee at the Hollis Street theater, Framingham, Mass.  early 1940's enter for a nickle or a dime.  A giant Hershey milk chocolate was  ??? was it 10 cents?  Got sick on that once, too much candy, first time Mom gave me money for allowance, and I could buy all the candy I wanted!

Laurel and Hardy dance to Billy Jean

  Silly ...again

The Three Stooges dance to Wipe Out!

Another crazy clever

Laurel and Hardy Dance To The Archies

Focus on something silly for a moment in time

THE ARCHIES - SUGAR SUGAR

Just because it is up and has a great beat

bob dylan-return to me.wmv

Never dreamed....Bob Dylan would make it sound good!  What do you think?

Marty Robbins-Some memories just won't die.

Bringing back Marty Robbins, he had a lot of great hits.

Return to me-Dean Martin

I don't know that there is anyone who does this better than Dean .  This is a poplular catchy son, if you are a Dean alike, maybe you should try it!

If Ever I Would Leave You - Gordon MacRae - From Camelot!

Gordon McRae, was wonderful to me, I saw all his shows when he came to the Carousel tent in Framingham...what a beautiful voice and such a handsome man!

Jo Stafford - Make Love To Me

As the comments state, it meant to kiss and hug, in the 1950's...and it was a big hit!

Kay Starr - Comes A-Long A-Love

Back to the 50's when life was so much simpler.....was it?  This was a major hit!

Ritchie Valens - We Belong Together w/ Lyrics

Hugs and hugs, and love is all I can think of in the face of this tragedy.

The Skyliners - Since I Don't Have You

Just because it is beautiful music

great music (playlist)

Its time to listen to this song, one of my favorites.  We lost Ravi Shankar this week, his influence is in the style of this song.

On Display In Monterey | James Spotting

On Display In Monterey | James Spotting    Exciting car news for the next Pebble Beach event.

THE FIVE KEYS - TO EACH HIS OWN

I thought I would find another version.  My Mom used to sing this, it was such a big hit years ago.  Get your mind off the tragedy, listen to music.  Off to exercise, or I would find something more up to listen to this morning...

"To Each His Own" Joni James

This was my wake up song this morning , then the  tears burst out for the tragedy yesterday.  It is a plaintive song of love  and love is all there is suppose to be in this world.  Our culture has been changing since the wild 60's and it is time to think about what it is doing to our people.  I can't help but think how the stress and strains of the world we live in, the immense rules, the failures to reach agreements, the polarization, etc., it is all causing grief.  Most important, is the constant repeat and repeat of the story on the news adds to the chances of a repeat.  Everything in the world repeats, and somewhere someone is watching this tragedy and getting ready to repeat it...!
