Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Where Were You Spring 1967?-- Part 7: One Last Time

One last time back to that Spring, 46 years ago.  That's almost a half a century for you counters.  Stroud always plays part of a song when coming back from commercial break.  And on a Time Warp, these are also songs from the date he's playing.

These are his break songs:

CASINO ROYALE--  HERB ALPERT & TIJUANA BRASS--  From the upcoming spoof on James Bond movies.
SOMETHING STUPID--  NANCY AND FRANK SINATRA--  Father and daughter on their way to #1.

SO THAT'S GOOD--  SAM THE SHAM & THE PHAROAHS--  The good, the bad and the ugly.  (Hey, I like Sam the Sham.  He's the one who taught me how to catch a girl.)
WITH THIS RING--  PLATTERS--  Making the leap from the 50s to the 60s.  ()And with one great Beach Music song at that.)

THE LADY CAME FROM BALTIMORE--  BOB DARRIN--  Had dropped the "by" in a serious folk thing while recording a Tim Hardin song.  (No more Bobby.  I don't know, Bob just doesn't sound right.))
I GOT RHYTHM--  HAPPENINGS--  (I like these little song snippets, but sometimes Stroud doesn't tell the song or artist like he did on this one.  And, I'd heard it many, many times.  Like to drove me nuts figuring it out.)

YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE--  (Another one he didn't tell the artist.  Anybody know?)
MELANCHOLY MUSIC MAN--  RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS--  (Sure glad he said the name and artist on this one.  I never would have guessed it.)

Turning the Old Way-Back Knob.  --RoadDog


TOO PUNNY:  Why were the Indians here first?  They had reservations.  ( I hear you moan.)
