Oztalgian 3,218 Posted May 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2021 Good choice My first record was a 75, Teddy Bear by The King. Loving You was the B side. Apparently it is worth the staggering amount of Five pounds 62p on e-bay Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jopip 31 Posted May 18, 2021 Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 Ben..." That's What Love Will Do" was one of the first 45's I bought but was recorded by Joe Brown. Great lyrics & wonderful memories. I do remember a look I was given in the movies when they dimmed the lights. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Willow wilson 891 Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 Another classic warm smoothy from the past. With a sax that's out of this world. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJ360 6,712 Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 Something a little later. .. The amazing Roy Orbison was still doing the biz.. only months before his untimely passing. What a voice!! Orbison's last album.. Mystery Girl.. was as good as anything he had done in his long career. This is a standout from an album of standout tunes. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mess 609 Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 Love The Big O. My sister brought home “It's Over” in the early 60s and I was very impressed. She also bought “In Dreams” another classic. I love his falsetto parts in “In Dreams” and “Only the Lonely “. Who can forget “Oh, Pretty Woman” another of his many superb performances. I very much enjoyed his time with The Travelling Wilburys. It seems unreal that he, George Harrison and Tom Petty are no longer with us. Wiki describes The Wilburys as a super group and of that there is no doubt. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJ360 6,712 Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 Indeed. My Sister had his album In Dreams..which is a cracker if you can find it and has things such as Beautiful Dreamer, All I Have To Do is Dream plus of course the title song and Blue Bayou. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AfferGorritt 868 Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 I just went into Youtube to look for ice hockey tactical videos and came across something completely different.

Cliff Ton 10,435 Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 A coincidence you should play that. Recently I've wandering around YouTube listening to The Seekers who I used to think were the ultimate in uncool. I've now changed my opinion, and realised that Judith Durham had a superb voice. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
