sonntag 2 June 2024. More METV binging and dis tyme wuz da Love Boat. Barbi Benton wuz on da boat in dis 1979 episode; she not only wuz a "pumpin to playboy" pinup BUT has a discography! From my days of Brockport High school/indiana university college radio, I remember seeing her releases on the Playboy label (wikipedia lists many credible acts on that label). Now (it's a SLOWWW day folks....)...how did she go out with my cuzzin? Famous kin lists the PURITAN ancestors of Hugh Hefner and one is mine (twice!). Thomas Bliss 1590-1650 is ancestor of both Hugh and BOTH my parents! (Our "ant" (sister of uncle) wuz acquitted witch Mary Bliss Parsons). Thomas Bliss wuz a founder of Hartford, Conneticut; I've seen the statue and on it iz names of ancestors of High hefner/hugh highland/justine covault and GG allin; "we built this city on rocknroll!" Irony; since Hugh IZ my cuzzin why wuznt da Gismos "Pumpin' to playboy" released on Playboy Records? If it wuz 1674 Puritan Massachusetts would we wear a Scarlet P around our necks?.

day of WOdin 5 June 2024. Been lsitening a lot to Blues Project live at town Hall, which will be another review BUT, loving their "wake me shake me", I did some RESEARCHING and Al Kooper (Somerville resident!) said he learnt it from The Golden Chords gospel group. AND when he said "I listened to it" he meant the 1963 Columbia album The Golden Chords. The Nathaniel Lewis Singers and The Sweet chariot singers- introducing the sweet chariot the sensational new pop gospel night club with soul recorded live". The Golden Chords get "an e.p.'s worth of tunes" and "wake me shake me" is at a downtempo Ikettes-type shuffle. "lead vocals-Lorraine Ellison". Lorraine did the original "stay with me baby" and famous kin sez my cuzzin Janis desecends from Robert Hicks, whom sailed on the Fortune in 1621,living in Plymouth next to John Alden! Famous descendants include Me, Bobby Magee, Taylor and Swift! A million dollar quartet i would nay gi' ye Fiddy Pence for!
