One tune we danced to back in my senior year of high school was Del Shannon's "Hats Off To Larry", a #5 hit on the singles chart. Years later my kids got a kick out of the TV ad by the American Dairy Assoc., touting the benefits of drinking milk. It's main theme was "And you always thought milk was for geeks, nerds, and guys named Larry."
Yup, there's 2 Larry's on this board: Larry Anthony and me, Larry Keenan.
I don't have any photos to show you, but I did find something that gave me a lift.
No, I'm not talking about an elevator or hopping on an airplane. I'm talking about the power of music.
When Beatles albums came to America (1964), the first 2 songs I heard were "I Saw Her Standing There" & "Twist And Shout".
Seems like a hundred years ago.
Anyway, these Beatles U.S. Capitol albums have now been re-issued and available at your local record store or Amazon.
Below are two favorites of mine: Paul McCartney and Bruce Springsteen.
When you watch the vid, don't just sit at your computer, stand up and dance like your back in High School:
