Drip drop....


I've been trying to think of something good to post for Valentine's day, but I can't get past my own perverse nature. Ask me to post something for 'Anti-Valentine's Day' and I'll come up with the mushiest tune you've ever heard, but Valentine's Day itself only brings to mind songs of caution, love gone wrong, and murderous intent.

So, I compromised on a song about missing a lover very badly. Best I could do.

The discography I'm looking at says this song is from 1963...I was under the impression it was issued earlier, but hey, what do I know?

I hope that your lover is near....and that you enjoy.

    Hey C., Yeah it was a bit cold on Sat. night...but the amazing thing was that I managed to make both parades and wasn't all that late to the party afterwards. I'll be in Austin in a couple weeks, see ya then.

  6. Hey, Thanks Anon....

    That's more what I thought, as I've seen copies of the record with the earlier Minit label which wasn't used past 1961. The discography I was using is obviously wrong. Thanks again..
