hotstuffandicecream. Sorry to rain on your parade, but we also had muscle cars ( 427 Fords, 426 Mopar Hemis and wedges and 427 Chevy Rat Motors). and.....well paradise by the dashboard lights in the late 50's and 60's. Plenty of parking on our old dirt roads and by the rivers in Eastern WV. C...

I don't care about his sexual orientation. He could sing and not scream like today's so called artists.

Ahh!! The Buddy Holley sound of West Texas. Juice was a great artist.

Yep, my 17 year old girl in the spring of 1966 would give me a double shot and became my wife in late in December. Still together after all these years. Ahhh to relive those years of the 60's and 70's.

Excuse this old Viet vet, but wasn't this originally recorded by The Conquests? Later by Rare Breed and finally by Ohio Express? Possibly by others but these were the ones I remember? Please clear up my fading memory. Thanks for posting.

Oh wow! You're the one I'm dreamin' of! Saw this group at the Jefferson County (WV) Fair many years ago. Great show. Thanks for posting.

Yep, Much Buddy Holly influence and sounds here. Never the less, a super record of the great 60's. Thanks for posting.

I wore this 45 out on the juke box at Jim & Dot's Restaurant at Lake Jackson, VA in 1965/1966. (Near Manassas on VA-234) I was and still am a bit of a rebel. Yaah EEE. Rebel yell! Don't question my patriotism as I had Top Secret Clearances at Level 4 for many years in spite of my southern h...

dowopper51. There is a knockout CD of The Echoes. Blue Lion BL-416. Hard to find and expensive, but for all Echoes fans it is well worth every penny! Thanks again for posting and bringing me back to this wonderful era.

A follow up to my prior comment. For all Echoes fans including ricknelson69. There is a knockout CD available. Blue Lion BL-416. All their hits and not so popular hits. Hard to find and a bit expensive, but worth every cent if you are a true Echoes fan. Thanks again for posting these Echoes...

Old USAF Viet Vet (Lifer) 1962-1982. Thanks to all that have thanked us. Wasn't the case in 1970 at SFO when we were called baby killers and spat at. Service Connected disabled but still and always will be proud to have served. God Bless all our vets!

Was she only 18 at this time.? Regardless she should be promoted in the USA!

This is true mountain music. If you don't like it, so be it. The banjo and guitar rhythm are better, no, so superior to the screaming and noise from todays so called artists.

Arlene Smith has such a beautiful voice and if you watched the PBS oldies shows, she still has it. Just wish todays "stars" would sing and not scream or holler. Glad I was a teenager in the 50's and early 60's as we might have been the last generation to have a great time with cheap gas and mus...

Yes, I knew her name, My first true love and the last time we were together. Happened to be my wife of 46 years older sister. Pleasant memories.

What a wonderful aircraft! I watch in awe at them about 4 miles from my home that are flown by the 167th (WV)) ANG pilots. Last USAF plane I was on was a C-141 from Clark AB, PI to Yokada AB, Japan in 1969. That was also a great palne it its time.

Kudos to the Navy from an old USAF vet. Great choregraphy for a super video. I think the F-16 and for sure the F-15 is a superior figher, but I'm biased. Well done!

This was so much of my early days. I was 22 and my bride was 17 in 1966. Still together after all these years. Great song and it was so revelant in the day.

Brings back memories of the early 60's. My wife's older sister was my first true love, but little sisters grow up. We married and have been together for 46 years so it has been good ever since.

dowopper51 my bad. You are 100% correct. Some times this old Viet Nam veteran gets things a bit wrong. Thanks for the correction.

What a dolly bird! I know this is a British term, but I lived in the UK ffrom 70-74 and

adopted many of their sayings.

Heard this on WICL, Oldies out of Williamsport, Md, Martinsburg, WV while waiting on the bus to pick up my grand daughter this morning. Couldn't remember who sang it or the exact title. Thanks to WICL for letting me know the info from thier play list. A real classic!

Hard to watch Viet videos and causes me some flash backs that will never go away. No support from our "leaders" in DC. Won't use profanity to describe my feelings for the lack of support for our efforts!

Meatloaf was not a sex idol, but his voice was just great and the music was top of the line. Too bad the music industry snubbed him.

Would like to know if the guy in the wheel chair is a wounded veteran. Too bad we had a slut like Jane Fonda during our Viet Nam era. Yes, I'm a disabled vet and I find Jane Fonda dispicable.

Who cares if she doesn't speak English? ABBA didn't either. She has the looks to make it in the USA. Wonder why she isn't promoted?

Nice video of this song that means so much to an old Viet Nam vet when reassigned to the UK . Thanks for posting.

I view every version of this song. Pleasant memories of my time in the UK after 'Nam when reunited with my wife and the birth of our daughter. Thanks for posting.

Very popular for all American Servicemen in SE Asia at this time. B-Girls thought this was their "ticket" to the land of the big BX. Only "Welcome Home" we got was from the flight crew of out MAC Charter. Changed clothes at Travis AFB and still had protesters spit at us in "civies" and called ...

Loved the Victorian scenes. Reminds me of my childhood and scenes from the 40's and early 50's in Eastern WV. Commercialization has killed the meaning of Christmas. Thanks for posting. Merry Christmas....Yes, we still say Merry Christmas here!

Our last year in the UK was 1974 and we saw this on TOTP. Fortunate that in over 20 years in the USAF that we weren't apart for a Christmas. 45 years together have been great. So lucky we chose the right one when she was 17 and I was 22. Peace and Merry Christmas to all!

727 JeffN I don't have a Marantz or Techniques amp but do have Akia with 4 Bose 901's and a Sherwood with 5 KLH medium speakers. I lived in the UK and Germany thanks to the USAF in the 1970s and this reminds me of the UK in particular. Thanks for this posting. Merry Christmas!.

A song way ahead of its time. Just think of what the words are saying.

Jefferson County WV is the only county in WV that has the Shenandoah River. Just wonder if John Denver ever visited the Eastern Panhandle.
