    Temptations (I think?)

    The Ready Or Not I was thinking of was the one by Jackson Browne, from his For Everyman album.

    The Run Run Run I was thinking of was by JoJo Gunne (one-hit wonder from the 70's).

    But, Fugees and Velvet Underground are fine bands as well.

    uh-oh.....sounds bluesy to me. Not my forte, really, although I did see Muddy Waters. Wait, it's not the Ragin' Cajun is it? I have no clue...Bueller? Bueller?

    No, wait! Ray Charles?

    haha, well I can sing it, but I don't remember the artist. I'll have to sleep on that. Same with Draggin' the Line - boy I was singing that all night, saying "who, who?" like a little owl. I knew it was somebody that had a real trippy hit (Crimson & Clover) but I couldn't remember that song either. It's fun to get these tunes stuck in your head, or better yet, my son's head!

    He's 21 and likes his alternative rock. But we have a parakeet in his room, so I make him leave iTunes on all day so the bird doesn't get lonely. So then I made a few "sets" for the bird with good, happy, hoppy music so my son rotates the sets. Every now and then my son will pass through the room humming something like "Garden Party" or "Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes" and I start chuckling. His friends think he likes weird music - hahaha!

    Love it!  Get the good stuff in his head!  In addition to classical & big band, my mom played "happy feet" music from Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass, and Sergio Mendez and Brasil '66. Bossa Nova anyone? LOL!

    I figured I could get'cha on that one! Wink

    The band is Trapeze - it's a band I first heard in the early 70's and I thought, "Man, they're good." So I bought it on 8-track. Nobody else had ever heard of them over all these years, but my son looked them up a while back on Wikipedia after I found the CD on Amazon. He said, "Well, no wonder you liked them so much." Most of the members are associated with all my favorite bands: Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, Black Sabbath and Whitesnake.
