I've never met Dave in person but in my book he's a class act. We've corresponded off and on for a few years and I continue to enjoy his long narratives about those "good old days". "40 Years Too Late" could have been a big hit in the 50's but unfortunately came in about 50 years too late and...

@scotpens I'm not sure what "twee" is but if it has anything to do "lackluster" I'll go along with it. But then again in the 60's this was pretty much par for the course. Multi-vocal tracking, echo and other such wonderments certainly boosted the careers of people like Shelley Faberes, Gary Lew...

  Whoever choreographed this should shot. Song is mediocre. Vocal is OK but you can only do so much without good material.

  @ChickweblisLuv I'm happy to leave it at that but you misunderstood my reference to "Linda Schmoe". My point was that if an unknown name was on the recording instead of "McCartney" nobody would have been interested. No disrespect intended. Have a good day my friend!

  If Moon Stomp TKO paid for this performance they should get a refund. Judging by the "applause" at the end there were maybe three people in the audience. If there were more they were either sitting on their hands or walked out before the finish.
