garfish: here's one that's true, but hard to believe. the night before buddy holly, richie valens and the big bopper died (after performing at the surfer ballroom in northwest iowa), i saw them all in concert at the orpheum theatre in davenport, iowa. ".....the day the music died," indeed. and another: one of my wife's goood friends was a cheerleader at the highschool in lubbuck, texas when buddy and peggy sue were there; she was a friend of peggy sue's, but barely knew buddy holly.
Guilty Pleasures
garfish’s recent thread on c/w music brought to mind the “guilty pleasures” admissions recently submitted by TAS writers and reviewers. a “guilty pleasure,” roughly speaking, is a musical selection one adores but plays only in secret, fearing its publication as an audiophile’s favorite might elicit ridicule or, at least, laughter. so, fellow a-goners, are you willing to confess to a couple of your guilty pleasures? I’ll start with two and add others if this thread gets going: (1) “not for kids only,” j. garcia & d. grisman; (2) ‘the little mermaid,” OST.
