Hey man you did good, I use to listen to this so much back in the 70's until I wore the nesmith version of this song. I have been trying to find a legal cover for this song with no copywright violations, including third party with no such luck,. Until a few days ago I was thinking that I was the only person who ever heard of this song and roll with the flow, thanks to people like you I apreciate your efforts, but bad for you becuase I am a crazy old coot.
Cool Johan. I appreciate your kind words. I enjoyed doing something a bit different here and it is nice to know you heard the love behind the song. Tanks Bud.
Greetings 2 U Mouse! I'm glad you enjoyed this rather different kind of song. I loved singing it (even without my superhero costume) ;) New stuff comin' up!
'Sup AD? Good to see you online. I am workin' on some ole time R&R for this weekend. Gonna record a few things tonight to see if they sound on tape like they do in my head ;) Hope you are having a great week.
Alright! I was xpectin' to git friend by you Maureen ;) I know you are partial to my R&R/Bluez stuff and I really appreciate your open ear and kind opinion of BG au natural. Back to the real stuff this coming weekend (if all my vintage gear is working.) I have a few jumpin' tunez I am workin' on. Thanks for being such a good supportive friend. Hugz 2 U.
hya! sorry for being out of here for such a long time! i love this song in ur version :) good 60s xD and well ur haircut is kinda funny xD but i like it:) xo
Yeah it's an oldie and not covered by too many folks Stallion. There is cool version here on YouTube with the actual author of the tune (Michael Nesmith of the Monkees) singing. If you want the link shoot me an email. Thanks for comin' by bro.
Yeah I got a bit of feedback on the vocal/music level this time. I will listen a bit more carefully next time out. Thanks for checkin' in Mr Baron ;) Hopefully some new bluez 4 U by the weekend!
Wow! I never thought my rocky commented song would do so well globally. I'm so glad to have faithful friends like you and your family. It is lovely here on this side of the pond as well. A bit of fog over the ocean but it cools the day down nicely that way. Hope ur week is BLESSED.
HOW could I miss this one huh?? OMG ..you really took the shades off !! That's awesome !!!You're looking great !! And the song is pretty cool !! All the stars for you :) xoxo
LOL. Sometimes I can be easy to miss ;) I'm glad what was lost is now found and that you like the look/tune. I hope you will still love me if I go back to my "normal" next week. I am thinking of some Elvis bluez and it feels better to sing it in full BluezGeek regalia.
Hiya Tofer! I'm thinkin' just to let folks know that I wasn't "The Phantom of YouTube" hiding behind the mask, I would do one without. I feel better singing bluez with little getup so I will probably record the next one with 'em on. I dig your non-PC site BTW ;) Have a great week.
Hey thanks ExB. That's an a lotta nice things rolled up into two sentences. I so appreciate you listening and sending such kind thoughts. More songs to come!
Tanks Bud. I tried an old RCA mic this time out. I have quite a few vintage mic's in the closet and might try another one next week. Hope you had a great weekend Nic.
Yeah I think a lotta folks thought it would be like Sampson and his hair or sumthin' ;) Glad U liked it Maro. This one inspired some rather passionate comments in all directions. See U back here next week I hope. Cheers.
Well thank God value is a bit more than some mechanical YouTube ranking ;) I love that my vids inspire joy, argument, criticism, love and other things in between. I'm probably gonna go back to basics next week (RocknRoll or bluez) Any suggestions? Many folks like Elvis. I might do one of his blues tunes (without the hips shakin') Lemme know what you and the fam vote...Hope your weekend was lovely LJ.
Well I'm glad. I still might go back to my "regular" next week when I do a blues tune. But now at least you know what's hiding behind the hat n glasses...
You've got the right attitude man. I am a muso. Some people like what we do, some don't. If we bring good feeling to some and make their way a little lighter and brighter then it's worth doing. It's about the gift of music, the essence. God sang all that appears into existence. Now that rates a star or two!
Here is the online definition of a "muso" for all that read these comments, "A muso listens to the world with open ears, watches the world with open eyes and touches the world through their life. A muso is able to express through music the complexity, the simplicity, the harmony and the constrasts of our world and of the people that makes up our world." I guess I try to be a "muso" like you BP ;) I am glad to know someone like U.
Have a look at Mahalia Jackson "How'd I make it over?" on the tube. Somebody has posted an old b&w poor quality vid but you can see the Essence in her face from about half way through and it just brings me to tears for sheer joy every time I watch it. Among all genres it is my #1, this is the piece that puts me in my place and I love it...still, it won't be everybody's cuppa tea. Peace, lurv and R & R.
It's Fantastic. The exact title if anyone wants to search for it is "Mahalia Jackson--How I got over LIVE". Thanks for all your comments this time out. I could really care what standing this vid gets from "Most Discussed". This comment section turned into a dialog that went in a wonderful positive direction. Thanks for being such a great part of that.
Hey man i enjoyed the other video's but this one was a bit pitchy(not in key Flat/sharp) , but keep it up its what you love to do. I loved shake rattle roll. peace out
Hi Bg, thanks for the reply. yes I do remember you do a number by ZZ but give the tune I said a go as think you will do it good so go on and have a go what you have got lose if it make one person happy do it that is what the tunes are all about YES. PPM
LOL. YouTube hiccups sometimes. It seems like even though quite a few comments are less than flattering this time, the song is making it's way up a little faster. I guess any publicity is GOOD publicity ;) After all it is "Most Discussed" not "Most Liked" =D
Well Bg. what wat can a old stoner like me say, try ZZ Bad to the bone come on wat have to lose plus it would make a old stoner very happy. nice to see the eyes as they say they are the windows to your sole, and to all the comments that is all they are just comments if you enjoy it keep doing it if good or bad it is all about the tunes but for me all I will say looking forward yo your next tune all the best PPM.
Hey thanks PPM. I see it the same way in that it is great that my singing and song choices evoke some feelings that people write in with so it's all good. BTW, I do a version of "Cheap Sunglasses" by ZZT. Will that suffice? It is on the "might do" list.
I aree with some this is not your best. like U without the shades though!!! I never liked that song anyway hasen't got any depth. I am still crazy for the Buble he is the greatest in my humble opinion also sexy cute adorable & on & on & on what more id there to say OHHHH!!! am seeing him in July 2 shows at the London 02 Arena, cannot wait
Tanks Billy. We had a bit o' a storm here in the comments but hey, itz all good. Real music is like having a real personality. Not everyone is gonna like ya. ;) I appreciate yoru support Bruthah.
Absolutely NO WORRIES! I kinda like to mix it up a bit and all smiles and rainbows gits a bit tired. If you have a suggestion for what you would like to hear, I am ALL EARS. I love that your family listens and comments too. Cheeers.
Hey dude this isn't a good tune for you, it's a bit of a looser tune but if you like it you like it. The worst looser song ever written is 'Everything happens to me' a jazz tune from way back. Some songs are self indulgent vacuous panty-waisted froth and bubble. No substance. Now Shake rattle and roll is only a 12 bar riff but it's got balls or a one eyed cat anyway Sorry man but the vocal volume should be back a bit closer to the backing. You look good without the hat and shades,good cut too.
Hey BP. Thanks for the technical pointers and I like to hear your opinions on the music as well. 12 bars and a one-eyed cat do make a fun song for Shake/Rattle. I will probably hit some Elvis or SRV or sumthin' ballzy next week. Thanks for taking the time to tell me what you think. Cheers.
Yeah another oldie for BluezGeek. Fun to open up the garage, shake off the dust and take 'em for a spin, eh? I have all these great Elvis fans as friends and subscribers. I will probably do an Elvis tune soon. (Maybe next week). Cheers.
LOL. That was the easy job. Singin' is the hard part ;) I'm glad you liked what you saw AND heard. Have a wonderful weekend Kathy and love to Dina and the rest of the fam.
Well Bluezy, this is a "different drum" indeed and I'm not sure that this jenre is your forte, although you do have great voice! You must be a very deep person, because, I keep wanting to pinch you, to see if you will allow me just a tiny glimpse of the big hearted soul, hiding on an un-propped stage, where it would seem impossible for anyone to hide. To be continued....
However, I am so happy to see this projection of you, without the shades and hat and I love the way you bring a new approach to all challenges. So I will be popping in from time to time to check out the stats and will gladly listen to any of your renditions. You truly are a lovely soul! Oh, and 5***** for being you!
Hey I will take the starz for my heart/soul or my music. Thanks for such a thoughtful response. I love singing whether it's blues, folk, jazz or pop depending on how I feel. Thanks for putting up with schizo weekly genre changes ;) That is the mark of a true friend.
Hey Jamie. Yeah I think some folks were expecting Shrek or sumthin' ;) Just a regular guy singin' in his living room on a Friday night with the cat supplying backup vocals from the couch...Glad U liked the face and the song Luv.
Yep. It's a bit easier to do the song with the glasses cuz I can look anywhere or close my eyes when I'm singin' and the camera doesn't catch it. Hope you're weekend is BLESSED YK.
Hiya Ute. I was actually hoping the hat/glasses just focused the attention on the music but it kind of ended doing the opposite. I will enter your vote for au natural. Let's see what the wardrobe does next week. Hugz 2 U.
Glad U liked both Betrisse. I felt a bit naked without them but I made it thru ;) Next week, who knows? Maybe back to my old habits. At least now you know who is hidin' behind the H&G.
Hey Theo. I will pass along your props to my haircutter. He's this great older English former 60's partier turned philosopher. And I'm glad you liked the song too.
Glad you like it...I can change the song but the face.....Well then again I live in Los Angeles where I suppose any feature can be changed for the right cash ;) I think I will keep what I got. Thanks for bein' such a great friend Pee.
Another great song...and sung great too...I can hear the lyrics that I don't always catch in the original. Thanks for sharing your gift of song with us all.
You're welcome Jacquie. Thanks for sharing the gift of LOVE back. I think I more back in kindness than I could ever put in with song. Enjoy your Saturday!

Oh Bluezy, I hope my comments didn't cause offence. I certainly wouldn't subscribe to a storm on your parade and I do "like ya" or I wouldn't be here!

Absolutely NO WORRIES! I kinda like to mix it up a bit and all smiles and rainbows gits a bit tired. If you have a suggestion for what you would like to hear, I am ALL EARS. I love that your family listens and comments too. Cheeers.
BluezGeek 3 years ago
Hey dude this isn't a good tune for you, it's a bit of a looser tune but if you like it you like it. The worst looser song ever written is 'Everything happens to me' a jazz tune from way back. Some songs are self indulgent vacuous panty-waisted froth and bubble. No substance. Now Shake rattle and roll is only a 12 bar riff but it's got balls or a one eyed cat anyway Sorry man but the vocal volume should be back a bit closer to the backing. You look good without the hat and shades,good cut too.

Hey BP. Thanks for the technical pointers and I like to hear your opinions on the music as well. 12 bars and a one-eyed cat do make a fun song for Shake/Rattle. I will probably hit some Elvis or SRV or sumthin' ballzy next week. Thanks for taking the time to tell me what you think. Cheers.

One must needs agree with the donny on this one. BluezGee-Kee is singing in tune (mostly) but this is not a song for the ole Geek-a-roo.

Yeah another oldie for BluezGeek. Fun to open up the garage, shake off the dust and take 'em for a spin, eh? I have all these great Elvis fans as friends and subscribers. I will probably do an Elvis tune soon. (Maybe next week). Cheers.

Well Bluezy, this is a "different drum" indeed and I'm not sure that this jenre is your forte, although you do have great voice! You must be a very deep person, because, I keep wanting to pinch you, to see if you will allow me just a tiny glimpse of the big hearted soul, hiding on an un-propped stage, where it would seem impossible for anyone to hide. To be continued....

Continued....
However, I am so happy to see this projection of you, without the shades and hat and I love the way you bring a new approach to all challenges. So I will be popping in from time to time to check out the stats and will gladly listen to any of your renditions. You truly are a lovely soul! Oh, and 5***** for being you!
LJABC 3 years ago
Hey I will take the starz for my heart/soul or my music. Thanks for such a thoughtful response. I love singing whether it's blues, folk, jazz or pop depending on how I feel. Thanks for putting up with schizo weekly genre changes ;) That is the mark of a true friend.

Yep. It's a bit easier to do the song with the glasses cuz I can look anywhere or close my eyes when I'm singin' and the camera doesn't catch it. Hope you're weekend is BLESSED YK.

Hey ! - All the time you've hidden this nice & attractive guy by wearing hat & glasses.
I like the face "without" simply dressed by a smile. ;-D
Very nice cover, Michael. I like it, too.
Thank you for sharing. - Ute.

Hiya Ute. I was actually hoping the hat/glasses just focused the attention on the music but it kind of ended doing the opposite. I will enter your vote for au natural. Let's see what the wardrobe does next week. Hugz 2 U.
