"Lundee 22 June 20. "onlinerasiobox.com
radio Plaisirs Country. "is an internet radio station broadcasting
from Victoriaville, Quebec, Canada provides country music' sung
in French like the french country western albums Linda garreau and
I would buy up in Keene NH or else on a Sunday jamboree at the French
Club Waltham mass. or even the Jim-10! Music to play spoons by!
I heard a GREAT 1964 "oldie" by Jean Marie Rusk;
the Guess Who may have been copying the British invasion that year
but not this guy; total pre- Beatle pop sung in French! Who was
that unmasked man? (pre-Covid or Band 19). "canadian singer,
real name Patrick Zabe. Born 12 December 43 in Quebec, he's Keith
Richard's age! rateyourmusic.com lists a 1964 album: "Jean
Rusk chante pour vous"! with my Franglais; "Da dou ron
ron"; mai oui! Phillippe le Spector! Perhaps he is a canadian
Johnny Hallday who was a French Elvis? And this 1965 45: KEBEC label,
"Fabrication Canadienne" (I found, in le metro de Montreal,
many French remakes of "oldies" like "please love
me forever" etc tres cheap!). This gem is "Elle etait
si jolie" b/w "Quand le jour viendra". Both records
i mentioned have a youtube presence, so DO dig in and mange le musique!".....

"day of Wodin morn 24 June 20. 0300. Coast to coast
AM and the guest said "I believe in reincanrnation"!
"you get reincarnated every 200 years"....ok, SO my 1756
America First pioneer ancestors ARE: Zadok MockBee, southern maryland
to western Virginny (Dad's great-great-great) and Elijah Blodgett,
Brimfield Mass to Oakfield NY (Ma's great-great-great) both Revolutionary

day of Thor 25 June 20. 0700 perhaps. onlinemusicbox.com (of course!)
CLASSIC
OLDIES JUKEBOX. speaks for itself but I heard a 45 I been (Yardbirds)
"Rack My Mind" all morn. "you've
got to hide your love away"-the Silkie. About '74 Solomon
"Spector' was turnin' me onto "girl groups"/female
singers et al. So a female vocal on a Beatle song was like female
vocal/Stones song (Marianne Faithful 'as years go by") and
both good mid-sixties pop. Since wikipedia never "lies' (depends
whom puts in info), they did four 45s and the second one/Beatles
cover makes them a "one hit wonder'. HELP! was released 6 Aug
65 BUT 9 Aug 65 John Paul and George "helped'. "Lennon
produced, McCartney played the guitar and harrison kept time by
tapping his guitar and also playing the tambourine". There
ARE Beatle geeks whom might slobber and drool the way some folks
do for those $2-300 dollar copies of the O. rex maxi-e.p. for sale
since one Gizmo and two Grubergers played on it. 45cat.com lists
the UK release on Fontana at $137; post-mortem Solomon Gruberger
is WORTH his weight in geldt, as am I:300 pounds, $300 for O. Rex!
(listen to the) :Twice As Much!"........

"Portugese leftovers from Portugalia and dinner musica:
onlineradiobox.com, looking for Portuguese stations:" Antenna
1- Memory" 'oldies" BUt "reflects the sound environment
of the period (1975-1976, my "Gizmo years",Bloomington,
Indiana) in which Portugal, living in a revolutionary process"....QUITE
educational, NPR-ish (in Portuguese) and I heard (sung in Portuguese)
1975 hard rock and/or 70s disco PLUS a "diva" whom discussed
"Begin the Beguine"....Cole Porter meets fado? between
that and my brazilian dessert...Si!"......

every day is a saturday 27 june 20. STILL playing those harry
vee (singer von der Broken Jug, Bamberg,Deutschland)
estate sale 45s , geldt of which is EQUAL for royalties owed for
covering "Rain of Death'. Today, reissue "Scepter/Wand
Forever label is "Louie Louie"! BOOKs have been written
about this oft-covered Richard Berry toon BUT (wikipedia!) it leads
off with Don galluci
on keyboards! I remember having an ORIGINAL label 45 at 85 Turner
road, Holliston mass (Metrowest-Boston Groupie news, if ewe will)
October '78 and flip side "haunted Castle" STILL a fave!
Galluci's haunted keyboard notes are A to C then G to Bflat, ends
on an A, THEN does a C-F-G "louie louie' I-IV-V progression!
Ken Kaiser I count SIX chords on the flip-side of "Louie Louie"'s
three chords! Lynn easton of Kingsmen gets credit for "Haunted
Castle" but Galluci and his prominent keyboards DID co-write
this toon! (Does harry vee owe HIM royalties?). (dates from wikipedia):
"Louie Louie"-1963; then Don galluci goes on to Don and
the Goodtimes and in a span of seven years he's producing Stooges
FUNHOUSE and playing Doors-y type keyboard on the 45 version of
"Down on the Street' (when I bought Funhouse October '71, "Down
on the street",first side, first song and FUNHOUSE was my beginning
to STOOGES fandom FOUR lifettymes later!). No gigs in Boston? Fuck
that AND heineken! I got my records or to maybe quote Queen ("I'm
in love with my car", may have been a b-side) "and my
rocknroll 45s"...."......
