Lonely Tear Drops. Doggin' Around. Blimey — talented dude. My context for adoring this record was plain and simple: I was five years old and loved the silly video that looked a lot like Trapdoor. I knew that the jeans advert song and My Baby Just Cares For Me were famous old songs probably because my parents knew the words! The record is absolutely fantastic of course — and also the reason I learned how to roll my Rs at a very early age :. The high yipping and other vocal tricks came in part from McPhatter, who was a far more OTT singer emotionally, if rarely as tricksy as on RP.
Anyway, I love RP, and always enjoy it enormously, and while I would never wish to claim reissues as the best of their latter day, 7 is too low for such a joyous, fun record.
Interesting to read the comments about oldies revivals at this time. Honey by Bobby Goldsboro for example getting to No. I also remember that time as being a real low ebb for pop music [with some significant exceptions of course] — after all, the Bay City Rollers were at their peak around then.
However, I will thank this period for introducing me to Nina Simone, who had never crossed my radar before. So sometimes revivals can be a good thing. Re Re 16 and others. And was cellulose film used before then?
Because old videotape was so expensive, BBC programmes were transferred to 16mm telecine recordings until the early s, which also meant that copies could be reproduced and distributed. Re Good call. If they were on videotape originally the tapes were often erased to be used for new programming.
Parts of The Dramatics distinctive instrumentation has been sampled in on more than 1 occasion by hardcore and techno tracks. They soon got wise obviously and ad agencies started to employ people to dig up oldies to use. I hated this video back then, thought it turned Jackie Wilson into a novelty act though admitedly his operatic vocal style could get a tad cartoony at times.
Probably as a result I can admire it for its pop brilliance and great performance, but I feel nothing but irritation when I hear it. I tend to prefer soulless music to soul any day. Also, it is a few years since I attended jive nights regularly but I believe there is a still a dedicated band of lindyhoppers dedicated to getting in the way of their deadly rivals the lerocers! So did it chart? For this and a lot of questions from my youth I turn to the back issues of Mad magazine.
But, risking opening a can of worms here, is it really racist? No idea about Hobart, but that at least explains your memory of it, Snif. I was thinking of her as part of the Live Aid era establishment, most safe and dull.
I love the Yazoo stuff but, boy, did she become an oldster before her time. Quite a lot of warmth upthread for Is This Love, mind you! Still sounds like a 5th rate Cher album track to me, with the most unnecessarily loud snare in all pop history. Whatever, I hated it at the time and still hate it now. The video gave me the creeps as well. I assumed even Jackie Wilson fans considered it a bit lightweight.
But of course Wilson was a Geordie! If this was number 1 when you were born paste [stork-boy] or [stork-girl] into the start of your comment :. To make squares disappear and save space for other squares you have to assemble English words left, right, up, down from the falling squares.
