A Few New Comments

Happy New Year again, everybody!  

Let's kick 2012 off with a few of your most recent comments ... 

re:  UP COMING (AND RECENT) SHOWS:  
JAY & THE TECHNIQUES WILL BE APPEARING AT THE HOTEL BETHLEHEM IN BETHLEHEM, PA ON JANUARY 12th!  

Some upcoming Tommy Roe dates include:
April 7 - 8: Riverside Casino ... Riverside, IA

April 14:  Seneca Niagara Casino ... Niagara Falls, NY

May 25:  Century Casino ... Edmonton AB, Canada

June 16:  Fountain of Life Festival ... Gray, TN
(Tommy doesn't do many winter dates ... he spends his time golfing in Palm Springs!)  

Friends ... Have a marvelous , safe, and successful 2012!!  
Me ... I am livin' the life!  I live right at St. Augustine Beach ... still get to tour with TOMMY ROE ... play in my own local band ... make pottery, yoga, etc.  All said, that's what life's about.  
I really really hope we can bring a TOMMY ROE show to you for a weekend this year ... we will work with you.  After all, 2012 is the 50th ANNIVERSARY of SHEILA, his first number one.  THE SHOW IS GREAT!
Happy New Year  
RICK LEVY   
We've mentioned a Tommy Roe show to a few of the promoters here locally on the list ... but if anyone else out there would like more information on booking Tommy for an appearance next year ... which I guess is now THIS year ... just drop me a note and I'll be happy to hook you up with Rick Levy, his manager and band leader.  (Rick mentioned that Tommy would SURE like to play Las Vegas in 2012!!!  In addition, he suggested something more along the lines of a "Performing Arts" venue as an idea concert location.  Would love to help make this  happen!)  kk  


re:  RADIO MEMORIES:
Hi Kent,
A friend sent this to me. You may have seen all these photos already, but if not, enjoy :)
The good ol' days when Radio Stations played a little bit of all genres of music! We were
blessed!

Yep, some GREAT memories here ... scroll all the way down to find more links (including some vintage 'CFL airchecks). 
Here's a photo of my WCFL T-Shirt ...

>>>Could this be the same Johnny Holliday who charted at #40 on the November 25, 1961 WLS Silver Dollar Survey with "One More Time" on Roulette?  (Ed)  
Happy New Year Kent;
A reader asked about Johnnie Holliday’s “One More Time” single that charted at #40 on the WLS Silver Dollar Survey for November 25, 1961. I was hosting the “East of Midnight” show on LS on that date and while I don’t recall that artist or the song.
Here’s how some of those songs charted.
Sam Holman was the PD and his office would actively survey record sales each week. The top 20 or 25 songs would indicate movement and interest from the public ... however beyond that number, it was simply a case of what caught Sam’s ear. After a week or three in the music rotation if a song such as “One More Time” didn’t indicate sales it was dropped.

re:  THIS AND THAT:
Caught a couple young girls performing that '50's song, "Tonight You Belong To Me", live, in a Borders' book store.

We might be able to attribute this one to the hot new FX Television Series "American Horror Story" ... they've featured the tune twice now (on both the first and last episode of the first season) ... and even our 15 year old has been walking around the house singing it!
It's what I keep saying ... expose this new, younger generation to this great music ... and they'll fall in love with it just like WE did ... all over again!  The Patience and Prudence hit is about as unlikely a crowd-pleaser as any these days ... but clearly we've both witnessed evidence to the contray.  (DeeJays ... Programmers ... Consultant "Experts" ... are ANY of you paying attention?!?!?)  kk 




Speaking of great music coming at you out of nowhere, we rented the new remake movie "Straw Dogs" over the holidays ... and I was COMPLETELY blown away to find The Monkees belting out their GREAT B-Side "Goin' Down" after the opening credits ... only to find another Favorite, Forgotten B-Side ... "Summer Wine" by Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazlewood ... featured later in the movie.  Looks like SOMEBODY's been checking the Forgotten Hits website!!!  (kk)







It's ALWAYS cool to hear something TOTALLY unexpected completely out of the blue ... purely by coincidence, here's an email we received today from FH Reader Clark Besch: 

Hi,
Here's a one in a million New Year's Eve tale for you Cryan' Shames fans. 
We went to the big city today (Omaha) and were shopping and stopped in to eat at the Nebraska old fashioned hamburger chain store "Don & Millie's" which have the best hamburgers in the state, IMO, reminiscent of the old 60's area chain "King's Food Host."  Anyway, they have great food and a jukebox with 45s and when it is not in use, they play 60's and 50's classic 45s. 
Anyway, we stopped in for lunch there about 12:15 this afternoon and immediately were humming along with the Hollies' "On a Carousel."  As we started to eat, my ears could not believe what I was hearing.  Those opening guitar bass lines were SOOOO familiar, but could it be?  IT WAS!!  Over the store speakers came "We Could be Happy" by the Cryan' Shames!!  Between Ricky Nelson's "Never Be Anyone Else but You" and Little Richard's "Tutti Fruitti" came Toad's sweet vocals of a B side classic!!  A one in a million to have it played there in those circumstances and even more amazing that I WAS THERE when it happened!!! 
I waited until the last day of the year to hear the most surprising and cool happening I had in music in 2011.  Gives me hope for the New Year!  Hope you all have a great one. 
Clark Besch  

Frannie and I were inspired to watch "Deliverance" over the long holiday weekend.  Truth be told, I had never seen that movie all the way through before ... so it was a new experience for me.
But the incredible use of "Dueling Banjos" in that film is quite inspired ... so I just HAD to play this one today.  Now THIS is a song that ought to get a radio spin once in a while.  (They sure played the heck out of it when it was out!!!)


 


Hi Kent:  

Another name missing from the list of people we lost last year was Hubert Sumlin who was Howlin’ Wolf’s great Guitar Player! I think he had a slightly bigger impact than Andrea True.

March 26 - Carl Bunch - Buddy Holly's drummer on his ill-fated Winter Dance Party Tour.  (Says here that he wasn't on the doomed plane because he had frostbite!  Wonder if he ALSO lost the coin toss!)

December 18 - Ralph MacDonald (songwriter: "Just The Two Of Us" and "Where Is The Love")  kk 

What, no mention of Gene McDaniels (July 29, 2011)? Is VintageVinyl trying to rival the Oscar telecast in terms of controversial inclusions and omissions? :)
MF Ping

We noticed it, too ... and rectified it above!  (kk)  

Here are more details regarding Sean Bonniwell's recent death ...
Mickey

Sad to hear about Sean Bonniwell's death. I just played "The People In Me" the other day!  

Did anyone notice on Jay & The Techniques' Ed Sullivan appearance:  The recording (if that's what it was) is speeded up and Jay Proctor sings the 1st verse over again -- also, I don't like that false ending.  Keep The Ball Rollin' was one of the tunes that got me started with "Kiddie A-Go-Go" and Top 40 radio in Chicago. 

BTW Happy 2012 to one and all.

re:  AND A NEW PASSING ALREADY IN 2012:
Kent ... 
Somebody on Facebook is reporting that Fred Milano of the Belmonts has died.
Here's more information on Fred Milano's death:
Frank B.
Fred Milano (born August 22, 1939 in New York) is an American doo-wop singer. He is a member of The Belmonts who became successful in the late 1950s as Dion and the Belmonts[1] and in the early 1960s.  Fred passed away on January 1st, 2012.
Tom Cuddy 

Fred Milano, second tenor with the Belmonts, died Monday (January 1) of apparent lung cancer. He was 72. Formed in 1957 as the Tamerlanes, the group was soon paired with Dion DiMucci on Mohawk Records before joining Laurie Records as the Dion and the Belmonts (named after Belmont Avenue in the Bronx where Fred lived) the following year. Their first Laurie single, "I Wonder Why" that year, reached #22 on the charts. It was followed by such hits as "No One Knows" (#19-1958) and "Don't Pity Me" (#40-1958), which led to the groups's inclusion on the ill-fated Winter Dance Party tour that took the lives of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper in early 1959. Other hits included "Where Or When" (#3-1960), "A Teenager In Love" (#5-1959) and "When You Wish Upon A Star" (#30-1960). Dissatisfied with the musical direction they had headed down, Dion left the group in late 1960. The Belmonts, with Carlo Mastrangelo now on lead, charted eight more times, (mostly on Sabine Records) including "Tell Me Why" (#18-1961) and "Come On Little Angel" (@28-1962). They reunited with Dion for a Rock 'n' Roll Revival Show in New York in 1972 and continued performing and recording under various incarnations to this day. The group was inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2000.
-- Ron Smith


Here's an official statement released by Dion regarding the passing of Fred Milano:
With everyone who loves the roots of rock 'n' roll, I'm mourning the loss of Freddie Milano. Fred played an important role in my younger life. He was a boyhood friend from the Bronx and one of the original members of Dion and the Belmonts. He was very savvy with harmonies. We had our ups and downs through the years but that's how things go in families, even rock 'n' roll families. I will always remain grateful for his contribution in 1958 and 59; may he rest in peace and rock on in heaven.
-- Dion Dimucci
 

re:  BYE BYE CD's:


Hey Kent, 

I thought you might want to read this after seeing the post from your reader about CD cut outs.  Or they making this up to justify getting rid of cd's?


Mickey 
We've been hearing this for at least six months now ... "hard copy" CD's will go by the wayside in favor of digital downloading.  Too bad ... 'cause there's just something about holding the box, cover and liner notes in your hand that has always held a great appeal for me.  (kk)

Here's a clip of a brand new CBS News Feature spotlighting Darlene Love.

re:  HAPPY NEW YEAR:
Kent ...
I'm sending New Year's greetings with Bobby Darin's old girlfriend, JoAnn Campbell, to remind you of your promise to re-play your Bobby Darin Series.
Frank B.


Actually, I just read that there's a Bobby Darin / Sandra Dee movie on TCM tonight for New Year's Day.  Still no immediate plans to rerun the series (actually what we'll do is permanently post it on the other Forgotten Hits Website ...
Click here: Forgotten Hits - The Bobby Darin Story ... where we've been teasing it for YEARS now!!!)  But I have been giving some thought to another special excerpt from the series to tie into another piece that I'm currently working on ... so stay tuned!!!  (kk)  

Hi Kent
Here's a great New Years song featuring Joel Katz, Bobby Jay and Eugene Pitt. 
A perfect song for this time of year.

Thanks, Mike ... and the very best to you and yours as well!  (kk)

Kent ...
What to do?
Have to go to two stores that open at 7:00 AM ... but I don't want to miss song #101 on the WCBS-FM Party Songs Countdown that starts at 7:00 AM.
What to do?
Leave early and hope for the best.
Leave my house at 6:46 AM.  No ice on car windows. Good ... that saves time.
Stop 1 = Buy two newspapers, one racing program + Take Five Lottery Tickets.
Stop 2 = Dry Cleaners. Pick up Yankee blanket.
Back home and happy to report ---
101 = I Love New York - Sal Soul Orchestra
100 = On Broadway - George Benson
99 = Get Down Tonight - KC & Sunshine Band
98 = Working For The Weekend - Loverboy
97 = Nights On Broadway - Bee Gees
Elvis just checked in at #80 with A Little Less Conversation.  (I wasn't expecting to hear him on this countdown!)
Too much Disco for my taste. Guess I'll still listen.

And then later ...
Kent ...
Here's the # 1 song on the WCBS-FM Top 101 Party Songs.

The Top Ten Biggest #1 Hits of the Beatles Era (1964 - 1970)

We've reached the top of the list.

(Thanks to everybody who stuck with us throughout this Top 200 Countdown)

The pay-off awaits you ...

Here are The Top Ten Biggest Number One Hits 
of The Beatles Era, 1964 - 1970:

#10 - I HEARD IT THROUGH THE GRAPEVINE by MARVIN GAYE
This record topped Billboard's Singles Chart for seven weeks, beginning at the end of 1968 and carrying over into the early weeks of 1969.  Incredibly it only stayed at #1 for ONE WEEK in Record World ... but earned a five-week stint in Cash Box, making it the TENTH BIGGEST #1 RECORD OF THE BEATLES ERA.
(The earlier Gladys Knight and the Pips version reached #1 for exactly one week in 1967 in Cash Box Magazine ... but didn't earn enough points to make our Top 200 Countdown.)

#9 - HONEY by BOBBY GOLDSBORO
Love it or hate it, there is NO denying just how big this record truly was.  #1 for five weeks in both Billboard and Record World (and #1 for four weeks in Cash Box), it's the NINTH BIGGEST #1 RECORD OF THE BEATLES ERA.

#8 - GET BACK by THE BEATLES
It seems only fitting that The Beatles would have a few of their biggest hits near the top of the list.  In fact, they own four of the Top Ten Positions in the countdown.

#7 - CAN'T BUY ME LOVE by THE BEATLES
Still the biggest advance-order singles release in recorded history ... a million and a half people had already decided they wanted the next Beatles Single before they ever even heard a single note!  (Because of this, it's also their rarest picture sleeve ... even though it's the same photograph used on their "I Want To Hold Your Hand" single.  Capitol must have figured, "Why go through the additional expense of printing a photo sleeve when this many people are already going to buy the record anyway?!?!?")

#6 - IN THE YEAR 2525 by ZAGER AND EVANS
Well, we're 43 years closer to 2525 than we were when this record first came out and topped the charts back in 1969 ... but the truth is, we've still got a ways to go before we hit that magical year.  (Then again, some of us aren't so sure we'll EVER get that far!!!)  But hey ... I don't see all of the George Jetson technology currently in place either ... so we can always dream, right???
For those of you reading this that are still around in 2525, let us know how it all worked out.

#5 - LOVE IS BLUE by PAUL MAURIAT
The highest ranking instrumental of The Beatles Era. (Actually, only four other instrumentals made the list ... Henry Mancini's "Love Theme from 'Romeo And Juliet'", "Grazing In The Grass" by Hugh Masekela, and, early on, "A Taste Of Honey" by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass and "Classical Gas" by Mason Williams.)

#4 - AQUARIUS / LET THE SUN SHINE IN by THE FIFTH DIMENSION
It truly WAS the dawning of the Age Of Aquarius ... and this #1 Smash from the hit musical "Hair" topped the charts for four, five and six weeks respectively in Record World, Cash Box and Billboard Magazines.  Perhaps the most definitive '60's Anthem of all.

#3 - I'M A BELIEVER by THE MONKEES
Number One for an average of 6.67 weeks (including 7 weeks on top in Billboard and 8 weeks at #1 in Cash Box), this record actually tied the #2 Song in total weeks spent at #1.  But because we agreed early on to let the Billboard #1 Rankings determine the first round of tie-breakers ... and because the #2 Record in our countdown spent a total of NINE weeks at #1 in Billboard ... we have to award the #2 Position to ...

#2 - HEY JUDE by THE BEATLES
The longest-running #1 Record of The Beatles Era ... and their biggest US Hit ... so how come in finishes at #2 in our countdown?  Because "Hey Jude" had an inconsistent run at the top of the charts.  Billboard charted it at #1 for nine weeks ... and Cash Box placed it there for seven ... but Record World only showed "Hey Jude" as the #1 Record in the Nation for FOUR weeks ... and that inconsistency is what dropped it to the #2 position over all.
That's because the #1 Record ...

#1 - I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND by THE BEATLES
earned a total of 23 weeks in the #1 Position on the charts ... Eight Weeks on Top in both Cash Box and Record World ... and an additional Seven Weeks at #1 in Billboard ... making it, hands down, the BIGGEST #1 RECORD OF THE BEATLES ERA overall.



We hope you have enjoyed our special countdown ... and thank those of you who actually checked back each and every hour to see where your favorites fell on the list.

What a GREAT way to break in 2012 ...

Lots more surprises coming up ... so please ... don't touch that dial!!!

The Top 20 (#20 - #11)

These are the Twenty Biggest #1 Records of The Beatles Years, 1964 - 1970!!!

#20 - HONKY TONK WOMEN by THE ROLLING STONES

#19 - SUGAR SUGAR by THE ARCHIES

#18 - DAYDREAM BELIEVER by THE MONKEES

#17 - SATISFACTION by THE ROLLING STONES
The Stones had seven #1 Records between 1964 and 1970 ... 
and this one was their biggest.
(For the record, "19th Nervous Breakdown" didn't make our Top 200 List ... but it spent one week at #1 in Cash Box Magazine in 1966.)

#16 - TO SIR, WITH LOVE by LULU

#15 - I'LL BE THERE by THE JACKSON FIVE

#14 - THIS GUY'S IN LOVE WITH YOU by HERB ALPERT
Alpert placed 24 records on the charts during The Beatles Years ... and 21 of those were instrumentals.  The first time he decided to SING on a record, it went all the way to #1.  "This Guy's In Love With You" topped all three music trade charts for four weeks in 1968.


#13 - ODE TO BILLIE JOE by BOBBIE GENTRY
Another '60's classic.


#12 - THE BALLAD OF THE GREEN BERETS by S/SGT. BARRY SADLER
Sadler's story ended tragically (see our entry dated January 15, 2010 ) ... but this was a HUGE record before Americans at home started to feel differently about our Viet Nam war efforts.  It topped the national charts for an average of four weeks back in 1965.

#11 - BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER by SIMON AND GARFUNKEL
Simon and Garfunkel saved their best for last ... this song is an absolute CLASSIC!

We're Almost There: #30 - #21

#30 - GROOVIN ' by THE YOUNG RASCALS

#29 - RAINDROPS KEEP FALLIN' ON MY HEAD by B.J. THOMAS
Anybody want to go for a bicycle ride?

#28 - YESTERDAY by THE BEATLES
Another U.S.-only single, this one is still the most-recorded song in history.  (And to think that it all took life as "Scrambled Eggs"!!!)

#27 - A TIE:  (See #98 for further explanation)
I THINK I LOVE YOU by THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY and
WINDY by THE ASSOCIATION

#26 - MRS. ROBINSON by SIMON AND GARFUNKEL

#25 - MRS. BROWN, YOU'VE GOT A LOVELY DAUGHTER 
by HERMAN'S HERMITS
Now what are the odds that two "Mrs." songs would finish back-to-back???
Peter Noone's record is full of bubbly innocence ... he just wants to date Mrs. Brown's lovely daughter ...
While the Simon And Garfunkel record begs the musical question:
"Are you trying to seduce me?"
Koo-Koo-Kachoo, Mrs. Robinson!!!

#24 - CHAPEL OF LOVE by THE DIXIE CUPS

#23 - BABY LOVE by THE SUPREMES
The Supremes placed 13 songs in our Top 200 Countdown ...
And this was their biggest #1 Hit of all.

#22 - PEOPLE GOT TO BE FREE by THE RASCALS
No longer "Young", The Rascals had something to say with this record ... and it shot up straight to #1.

#21 - THE LETTER by THE BOX TOPS
One of the shortest #1 Records on record (it clocks in at under two minutes!), this record seemed to be playing on the radio every time you turned it on back in 1967.
And it leads us into The Top 20.
(Are you still with us???)
