Vicki Carr released a ton of singles, but I swear I never remember hearing them on the stations I listened to. No Dean Martin, Al Martino, none of them.
my father might even have had her records. he had a respectable record collection, which almost never got played. (except when he wasn't home!) but i remember my mother saying Vicki wasn't just a comedy actor.
..."wibg" - i have a wibg comp lp! i never knew where the station was.
i can relate...what revelation it was when my older brother told me those 'stones and beatles songs were originally by some guy named "Chuck Berry" in the 50s!
...and please mr. postman was an early girl group! i still Love the ongoing education

So they went surfing, drove back to the UCLA campus in their woodies, put on their pajamas and started dancing to a live band. That's pretty darn cool.

I love Lester Young, a most original sax player. I have a live recording of him playing the most perfect solo on "Lullaby Of Birdland". Also, my grandfather was named Lester.
A young and hard working Jimi Hendrix heard these tracks in ‘62-‘65 and made a mental note: “You will never hear surf music again” as a lyric in a song 😂✌️
