From Oldies News.
ARTHUR "GUITAR BOOGIE" SMITH. 93. Died April 3, 2014. Composer of the "Dueling Banjos" song from the 1872 movie "Deliverance." It was a #2 hit for Eric Weissberg and Steve Mandell.
Martin Mull had a parody that went to #92 called "Dueling Tubas."
JOE "SPEEDO" FRAZIER, 70. Died March 1, 2014. Lead singer and only black members of the group Impalas. Joe uttered "Uh oh" at the beginning of "Sorry (I Ran All the Way Home" which went to #2 in 1959. It was a mistake that he said it, but they left it in and I loved it. .
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
