In elementary school we used to have 1 day a week where we had to be silent at lunch and if we were good they would play pop music. This song came on and the girls went bananas.

My Dad owned a bunch of radio stations...
Oct 11, 2017, 9:25 AM

they were all country. He was even on Hee Haw a couple of times. I was raised around country music, but my first album was Journey Escape I guess maybe this song, but of course I always listened to music in the car with my Dad RIP or my Mom. My Dad like country, but my Mom liked Motown. Anyway...

I have a vague memory of watching the Beatles on Ed Sullivan

We went to eat supper at my Grandmother's house every Sunday night, and I sort of remember my aunt making a big deal out of that and that we watched it. I was 3 or 4 years old, LOL. Supper, Mutual Of Omaha's Wild Kingdom, and The Wonderful World Of Disney was the schedule every Sunday night of my entire childhood.

Of Disney. Yep. Which were preceded by ABC's Wild World of Sports: "the thrill of victory... and the agony of defeat". I can still see that guy busting his ### on the ski jump...

a combination of Alvin and the Chipmunks, The Monkees, Josie and the Pussycats, The Banana Splits --- Saturday morning cartoon stuff. This are the first "records" I remember listening to as a kid. Got them from mailing in cereal box tops and stuff like that. Sometimes they came actually on the cereal box, a thin piece of celluloid. My mom loved Elvis and played his stuff alot at home too, so I don't remember ever NOT liking Elvis.
And the swimming pool we went to when I was 7 or 8 years old had a jukebox in the snack bar that blasted stuff like Grand Funk, ZZ Top, Rolling Stones, etc. My mom allowed us to buy 45 records when we went to the dime store sometimes, so I gravitated towards the "swimming pool" songs to play on my little phonograph player.
When I got to be about 10, we joined the Columbia House Record Club, and it was on from there.....
So who has this CD?

I'm not even sure I can narrow it back to a single song.
Oct 11, 2017, 10:09 AM

But my best guess would be either the 'race records' that my parents had on 78s, like Ruth Brown's Mama He Treats Your Daughter Mean, Billy ward & His Dominoes' Three Coin In The Fountain, or The Clovers Lovey Dovey. I would play them on my Show N' Tell record player when I was 5 or 6 years old. Or, sneaking in to my Aunt's records when I was 7 or 8 years old to play her beach music, Beatles, and Rolling Stones 45s when she was gone, and after being specifically warned to LEAVE HER RECORDS ALONE. And then there was The Monkees TV show when I was 5-7 years old that I absolutely would not miss watching.
For you youngsters...the Show N' Tell played a record that narrated a filmstrip so you could 'watch' kiddie content.
I'm RH Tig, and I'm a music addict. Pretty sure it's in my DNA and no therapy, drug, or counseling will ever overcome this affliction.

Hated Honeycomb but I wish I still had those cardboard records. Weird that I don't, I have every other format of music I ever bought for the entirety of my life in my collection still today.

very first song that reached out and grabbed me was this one. I was probably 7 or 8 years old. I still remember spinning around on a counter stool, goofing off, when somebody played this new song on the juke box. I immediately stopped what I was doing and walked over to see what it was. The sound was different... cool...funky... I was hooked and played it over and over and over...

my parents had me listening to the Everly Brothers, Linda Ronstadt, Beach Boys and anything Beach music when I was growing up.
the CD we got with our first CD player was this:
I could rap all of Ice Ice Baby and Parents just don't understand in 3rd grade
I had the entire Metallica black album memorized in 5th grade
I was all pop-punk through middle and high school
then druggie hippy bands in college, those bands opened my eyes to the good (not radio) classic rock and the influences on them.
according to mrs fluff i like anything with a male singer with a high voice and hate anything with a manly sounding female vocalist (stevie nicks, et al)

these tunes, and "Whiter Shade of Pale", led me to buy a Farfisa band organ later in 9th or 10th grade. Never really had any success in joining/starting a band, sold it a couple years later.

after this tune I was never really a Doors fan, but liked this as a kid.
