Last post of the week on the last day of the fiscal month means mot a whole lot of work on this one. $5 this did cost. I got it for the version of Ewen McColl’s classic “Dirty Old Town”.
Just not in the mood to do much exposition on UK British Invasion Stars Chad & Jeremy, who I believe were more famous in the US then in their homeland. That is my working theory anyway. Also I like the clip from Batman below as it is so the opposite of Jimmy Page with the double necked SG.
I am not sure what this is other than a Capitol release from 1966. The material on is seems to come from earlier records. Pretty good. Scratch that. Pretty damn good cross mix of songs . The duo also do a great job of taking this diverse group of works and applying their smooth, cosmopolitan sound to each, making them their own.
For a sample, I was really stuck as I picked out about half the album as potential tunes. Songs like “The Girl From Ipanema”, “Four Strong Winds”, and “It Was A Very Good Year” are frequent guests to this blog. There were also other songs such as “Donna, Donna” that I felt were good. However, I went with “The Truth Often Hurts The Heart”. Also since I wrote about it in the first paragraph, here is “Dirty Old Town”.
Satisfactory.
