minicapt,
There he is as a baby held by his mother. His whole life is front of him. Sadly it will be a short life.

Gnu,
What a fun commercial. The ones they have now are similar except the actual animals are wearing bunny ears. The lion is my favorite.

Gnu,
I don’t know many of her singles, mostly the songs with the Vandellas. I keep expecting to hear them backing her up here.

It was Martha Reeves and the Vandellas. Mary Wells was a solo artist. Her most famous song was “My Guy” (1964), but this was a medium-sized hit that followed “The One Who Really Loves You” (both in 1962).

Of course it was. I think I had a fugue moment there. No way for me to confuse the two!! My Guy and all that!! Then there is Dancing in the Streets! I can’t imagine how I did this!!

Gnu,
My mother played her Jo Stafford records on the hifi which is how I got to know her. I love this song. Shrimp boats was the first of hers I ever heard.

As much as I like Jo Stafford (seriously), I’m partial to her alter ego, Darlene Edwards, who recorded with her real-life husband, Jonathan (Paul Weston). If I’m not mistaken, they actually won a Grammy.

im6,
Okay, where’s the video so I can hear her voice as I don’t know Darlene Edwards.
You got me!! When I saw Jo Stafford’s name I expected her; instead, I get her alter ego. The hair on my arms is standing straight up!

Another singer from my mother. I really came to like her later music more than her earlier songs.

Gnu,
This one brings back so many memories. I remember my friends and I in the car riding around and singing along with the radio. They are dressed so nattily.

Gnu,
Another song I remember the words to having listened so many times. They were one of my favorites from the British Invasion.
