jamesjazzguitar Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Since Hey BullDog was released on Yellow Submarine (which had a lot of non Beatles tunes from the movie on it), that album is a favorite and this great song got loss. But any true Beatles fan is aware of this song. Link to post Share on other sites
casablancalover Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I love that! Thank you for sharing. Link to post Share on other sites
pturman Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Great clip, darkblue! I've never seen it. I've seen the "video" of them singing RAIN in the english garden but not this one. Yeah, McCartney's bass playing is great in this song. Not only did the Beatles set the gold standard in terms of quality but also quantity: 20 albums in 7 years. Here's another of my favorite "obscure" Beatle songs: Link to post Share on other sites

scottman1932 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Revolver is one of my favorite Beatles albums. Another favorite from Revolver: Link to post Share on other sites
movieman1957 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 It's a great tune. Lennon never thought much of it but I think it is very interesting musically. The intro, the bridge and the end alond with the difficult guitar solo make the song more fun than it probably is just written out. Another fun song with a most interesting chord - Link to post Share on other sites

Yep. And they always play the same 20 songs over & over on the radio. Link to post Share on other sites
scottman1932 Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Bertha Hill and Louis Armstrong, "Trouble In Mind" (1926) In spite of the primitive elecrtical recordeing equipment used by OKeh records at the time, the power and beauty of this performance shines through. A true classic and a big favorite of mine: Link to post Share on other sites
casablancalover Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 The power of Venus is in the western sky tonight. [shocking Blue|http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LhkyyCvUHk] [Holst, London Symphony Orchestra|http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1f8HjIkU3M] Link to post Share on other sites
misswonderly3 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 A great one hit wonder, that Venus. I love the part where she goes " Aaahh...." you get the idea. And Holst is no slouch in the Venus music department either. I remember, my father loved classical music, and he introduced me to Holst's "Planets Suite".

casablancalover Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Funny, I thought of Frankie Avalon's Venus tonight when I saw Venus high on the horizon. I live on a river, so it's dark; there is very little light pollution. Thanks for sharing them all. Link to post Share on other sites

misswonderly3 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 That movie looks really intriguing, musicalnovelty. Now I want to see the whole thing. I'm a big fan of Robert Walker, and I'd never heard of this one. casablancalover, there's nothing like Motown girl groups to get the blood stirring. Sometimes, just to work in a little extra exercise, I close all the curtains ( don't want anyone to see me), throw on one of the discs from my Motown boxed set ( it's called "Hitsville USA" or something), turn up the volume, and dance dance dance. Here's a good example of what I mean: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7A9PJ4padTQ Link to post Share on other sites
casablancalover Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 misswonderly!! Hey!! HAHAHAHA... The dating scene is tough enough without gals in their teens (at the time) complaining a good man is hard to find. But keeping with the theme, slightly gender-bent, more Motown..

casablancalover Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 One Touch of Venus is entertaining. It's very sit-com to me. I can't help to think it inspired the TV show "I Dream of Jeannie" in many respects. Great song out of it.

Most of his records were on Brunswick. Early stuff was on various labels including Dee Gee, Federal, King, Jubilee, and Decca. Then, later many of his hits were reissued on various oldies reissue labels. But never Motown. Link to post Share on other sites
