I had no idea Weems was leading a band this early.

One of the best Ted Weems--except for all the others! I've been friends with Ted Weems, Jr. for over 30 years. His father died in 1963 and Ted led his band in the 60's and 70's. Since the late 70's, he and his wife Nelda live in Dallas and are amongst the biggest collectors and dealers of vintage automobile literature and promo model cars.

Thank you VERY much for your interesting information! I also like this side a lot, especially that vocal by the orchestra members - really outstanding and funny

My Darling Grzegorz,

I'm still dreaming about Clive, Jude and Gary......SIGH!!!!!!

If I only had THEM!!!!!!!

Invite THEM to your next soiree and play this SMASHING song.....I'm in the MOOD for a PARTY! Merci Mon Cher.

[240252]

Thanks Genia! I am only waiting for the right mood plus a right melody. One midnight, when a right dose of both makes a right mixture, full moon will bring back their beloved faces to you again, I promise...

Oh Grzegorz, thanks for the pic of Marie Prevost. I love her so much that tears came to my eyes when I saw her!

Gloria looks great with that peacock feather. As the lyrics say, "Please make my dreams come true."

great hard-driving dance music from weems, and tantalizing eye-candy from an era of bee-stung lips. thank you.

[240252]

Oh I love that term "bee-stung lips". How picturesaque! I never heard it before, thanks! :-)
