Remembering Jimmy Sabater (1936 - 2012)

Where's side one?

This has got to be the first time i've heard this one in about 50 years.

Grandpa is a great comedian! How much you believe of his various rants is up to you.

Ten foot references? No doubt he'll be playing for Rex Ryan next year.

was the interview done before the trial? the reason i ask is because the chloroform issue came up at the trial.

The crowd looks like it's listening to a eulogy at a funeral.

Give 'em hell, Harry!

Ah yes ... Jahns of Brooklyn ... a free sundae on your birthday. And for the really adventurous, you could order the "schissel". Don't even ask.

What were they drinking when they recorded this? The group should be called the Moonshiners. No way this ever should have ever made it to wax.

@tomthefunky Depends on what she looks like (lol).

Sonny and Brownie; as good as it gets .... the real deal.

It's amazing what good living can do. Bobby got skinnier and younger over the years.

If you include their acappella work, the Nutmegs are one of the truly great vocal groups (imho).

I always thought that 'Gotham" was a strange name for a Philly record company since that phrase is used in association with New York.

Nobody is forcing the Palestinian pickers to work for the Israeli growers. If their own region were anywhere as near as prosperous, there would no need to work in Israel.

@ArbitrarilyAwesome The depth of your stupidity is astounding.

sweet!

@09mskitty Also, the Nutmegs/Lyres/Rajahs were just about the finest acapella group going. Quite a few examples of their acapella work are out there on YouTube to be enjoyed.

IGY = International Geophysical Year

I love the bridge! You just can't go wrong with the immortal Ink Spots.

Real name: Baldemar Garza Huerta

My vote is for the Shirelles' version.

Remembering Joe Duncan.

Recorded on my 10th birthday! (And many years later, I did get to actually see the White Cliffs of Dover.)

Nice, faithful re-creation. It sounds like it went over really well in McKeesport. Nice to see that a fan base for this music still exists.

I have always loved the Randazzo version (the original version of this song). The Orioles' cover has a different feel to it but is also very listenable.

1948 does seem so long ago ... but the sounds are still beautiful.

Even funnier than Jeff Foxworthy.

@MistrzKubica There have been many wars having nothing to do with religion. However, consider the Crusades, the WW2 Holocaust, Notherrn Ireland, Israelis vs Arabs, Sunii vs Shia, etc, etc. Religion has provided much richness to the lives of many people but has made many others into bigots.

@strandwolf Thanks for the additional info on this topic.

@hankp123 If singers are not polititians, perhaps Toby Keith should shut the hell up.

Gee how original! Did anyone actually buy this?

I have some reel-to-reel tapes of the Time Capsule Show as well as a few of the Times Square Records show (with Slim Rose) which predated Tom and Joe's show. In fact, on one tape, Slim actually mentions Joe Marchesani's name (he had sent in a joke). One of my tapes of Slim's show can be found on...

What the lyrics tell me is that the sixth member of the group was the bottle of Sneaky Pete in the lead singer's back pocket.

Blah blah blah. I guess the Jews of Europe just disappeared into thin air during WW2. The case is settled ... shut up.

The pre-soul Miracles were a GREAT doo-wop group.

Did I see someone say that The Beeb sang a Smokey song better than Smokey? I guess that opinion is possible; for a tone-deaf person.

Must be an old doo-wopper on the NFL Network staff. Nice to see this late-50s classic resurrected; however it's silly to say that the "new" version is better than the original.
