One of the better acousticals of the day.

Been many years since I've heard it.

Thanks for shaking the memory tree.

[Terry]

yup

always loved that song

[jimmer]

Wow, I haven't heard that in years. Thanks for bringing back some old memories. I also listened to the version by Sungha Jung. Just a kid, but quite impressive.

[Bill Shearer]

Probably too long ago for 90% of the folks here.

Another acoustical you should search out is the Deliverence song "dueling banjos"

An original Flatt and Scruggs tune. Awesome IMO.

Bernie, "A Summer Place" is my all time favorite instrumental.

 

Really a beautiful tune to listen to.

[misfish]

Glen, thats the one I always remember hearing.

 

Thanks

I still have the original album. There was some really unique and different stuff all thrown into the one album. last tune was called Sunflower.

He also liked to dabble in other artistic medium, not unlike Andy Warhol, having produced a book of poetry and a "different" photography portfolio. I had a signed copy of the poetry book, years back, sold for a pretty penny.

His daytime job was as a TV writer.

Hi Bernie,

 

Loved the Theme From A Summer Place song.

Brings back memories from the past.

Kids today may think they are the chosen ones but we know better.

 

Sad to say for the kids of today that the music of what they know, and that rap is only missing the letter ''c'' that should go in front of it,

and listen to will be ''the good old days for them''.

 

Very sad for them because they missed the best--50's and 60's.

Actually, when dad passed away, I got a booklet of about 12 vinal albums of Stan Kenton and his orchestra. I'm gonna hang on to them for awhile , but there are at least 30 of them. As in 12 albums of vinal discs.

[Joey]

That didn't explain it very well, so he he kept them all in a vinal container, with about 12 albums each, all separated and in excellent condition, in about 3 containers

[Joey]

There are at least 15 vinyl albums in each folder, all in A1 condtition. Kinda cool If you're into Stan Kenton that is

Are those 78s? I think that is where the term 'album' (for music recordings) orginated. Then when LPs became popular, what used to require an album could be recorded on one disc.

[bigugli]

Instrumental music was big in the 60's. Something far too complex for today's youth apparently???

A Canadian great was "Walk Don't Run" by the Ventures. They would also record the hawaii 50 theme.

Anybody remember Paul Marat's "Love Is Blue"

How about "Telstar"

Must not forget Duane Eddy.

[wormdunker]

bigugli - now you really got me thinking! LOL!

Paul Mariat, Bobby Vinton? I do remember the Hawaii 50 theme and many more! I was in the disc jockey business in Niagara for over 30 years. We used to own Party Sounds Disc Jockey Service. Club Capri was a regular venue for me.

[dave524]

The master, Les Paul, R.I.P. , pretty good for for 90 years old.

Not sure what you mean by 78s? I think they are 10 inch if that's what you mean?

The records turned at 78 RPM's on the turntable Joey

 

The smaller ones turned at 45 RPM's

 

I can just imagine all the young guys on this board wondering what the heck records are

Bruce,my folks loved Duane Eddy. So much so my brother's first and middle names are Duane Edward. I don't remember any of the music but I do remember seeing Duane Eddy, Ventures & Telstar album covers. Wonder if they still have any of the old vinyl kicking around?
