Rare Flying Nun TV show song Golden Days

[shmuli9]

Wow - she sounds like Shelley Fabares. I've heard a few songs inthe Flying Nun, but not this one.

[VirginSuicide77]

She sounds so pretty despite the off center sound!

[Aeolis7]

That is a LOT of over-dubbing!

[ivegotalongdong]

yep. typical songs from the 60's - very OVERPOWERING orchestra, singers sound like they are in a tunnel

[pkd51]

thanks so much for uploading this. I've wanted to hear this song again for years.

It made my day.

SHE SOUNDS SLIGHTLY OFF-KEY HERE---BUT SHE IS ***NOT*** OFF-KEY!!!! I wouldn't have known this, but my cousin recently found & purchased an orginal copy on vinyl. And it's PERFECT & does NOT sound shakily almost-off-key like this! (If you listen to THIS, it's not just her voice, but the strings & piano are off too!) The reason---It was a record with the hole punched SLIGHTLY off-center!!!! SALLY IS GREAT!!!!

It was not a VG recording I admit. But the was a promotional single recorded high Fidelity (as they called it back then).I'm not familiar with phonograph technology..lol. Sorry the sound is a bit off.

@jimmy82022000 that's because it was before your time

[fromthesidelines]

Screen Gems/Columbia wanted to take full advantage of Sally's "singing ability" as they did with Shelley Fabares and Paul Petersen on "THE DONNA REED SHOW" {on their Colpix records subsidiary}...because they owned Colgems records {"The Monkees" label}, they wanted that "tie-in" album and single, and got it.

[vividwatch47]

Colpix was renamed Colgems, whih in turn was taken over by Bell, and in turn was taken over by Arista.

For someone not really known for singing,

she did pretty well ~ her LP featuring songs from THE FLYING NUN certainly deserves a CD

Release ~ it was well done and she surely could have had a Hit record with "I'm So Glad I can Fly" - Sally's still "flying high" with her hit tv series BROTHERS AND SISTERS -

Thanks for posting this song. I actually once had the 45 with Grand ole Flag on the reverse side. I had got rid of my 45's when I moved, but I think I could still get them back. This is real nostalgia!

[lajas46]

i have a copy with picture sleeve and the other side of "GOLDEN DAYS" is "FELICIDAD" THE SIDE THAT HIT BILLBOARD AT #94

[mettanc]

what a fun song!!!!

[HoundDog104]

How do I get a copy of this tune? What album did this come from?

[jimmy82022000]

This song is from a 45rpm. There was only few sold, but never on a album. Check ebay they pop up every blue moon.

[TheVomitusMaximus]

That's cool, but what's the name of the song on the 45 RPM?

[jimmy82022000]

"Golden Days" flip side "Grand old flag". Real kids stuff, but a great Sally field collectors item! I will likely re post this song with a Pic so check back! Also might throw in one of her other songs.

[TheVomitusMaximus]

That would be great and thanks!

Too bad just a black screen, but little loss: Sally Field is a far, far superlative actress than a singer!

[jimmy82022000]

True, her singing carrier was in The Flying nun contract. Sally never thought She was a great singer.
