OMG

My very favorite Marine Sgt Major, Willie T. Reed, Jr. sent me this video today and I had to sit and listen to it twice. It brought back so many, many memories of my teenage years in the fifties when music was music. While listening to it the first time I tried to do some other work on the computer and couldn’t. I just could not do anything but sit and watch, and dream of all those memories. Like the one where I remembered exactly where I was when I first heard the song. I was with a gang of guys and girls in Joey Anderson’s basement listening to his stack of 45 album’s, and this song came on and  Delores Lily asked me to dance. It was a slow one and I couldn’t slow dance yet, so she grabbed me and taught me how. Every time I hear that damn song, I’m back in Joey’s basement learning from Delores how to slow dance while I stepped all over her feet, sorry Delores!  LOL. Oh my goodness. What memories. I hope they bring back some for you as well. If not, you’re too young! What’s the song, you ask? Well, it’s by the Penguins, if you don’t know the name, watch and learn.
