"And there she was just a-walkin' down the street/ Singin' doo-wah-diddy diddy-dum diddy-doo"

It's a cover, but the original isn't nearly as well known.

" (Beatles still in their "flippin' lousy" stage), "

bite your tongue! the more i revisit early beatles the more i realize what stellar musicians they were right from the get go. not to mention what a really fantastic infections bouncy energy they had in their early days. shame i'm too late to add a 10th vote for "she loves you"

Also never tire of the story of how it saved, and then led to the destruction of, Leiber and Stoller’s record labels.

Which also messed up some projects of the guy I know, but he bounced back, just like them.

Because of George Goldner's gambling + the Mafia?

Josefa, Tuesday, 4 May 2021 04:03 (two years ago) link

Yeah. I see you’ve read about that.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 04:07 (two years ago) link

You and I- and dow, to some extent- have been posting in parallel about that without ever actually colliding.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 04:11 (two years ago) link

So I see! Reading my old posts can be very informative to me, since I'll often forget what I read just 2-3 years back.

Josefa, Tuesday, 4 May 2021 04:29 (two years ago) link

You and me both, brother! Like I was saying in another context, these days I am older than Mr. Atoz.
