This won't win me any popularity contests, but... If we can't get people to nominate, we might as well just make up a communal list of songs (which we could add to continually) that aren't in the Ten, pick about 50 at random each week, and everyone vote on those ! It would take away some of the enjoyment, but we'd probably get more voters. Actually, it's a very practical idea. I know I've been allowed to vote a couple of times when I just 'dropped in', but the week before I returned (this time) I refrained from doing so because I saw that my vote would determine which song was #1 - and I didn't think that was fair. Of course, I'm not talking about regular participants who can't occasionally nominate.

My Wife and I just saw the TV news. We'd heard of the tornadoes this morning our time, but didn't know just how terrible they were. Hope nobody here is affected ! Our prayers and thoughts go out to all.

Hi Phil. Great minds .... I was going to use Larry Williams for next week's "haven't made it yet" Ten. But I hope 'Bad Boy' makes it for you and I don't get the chance to use him then. (Mine's a different song. It'll keep.)

That's really interesting Phil. A double of cover recordings. I've got the the 1958 single of Bobby Day's "Rock-In-Robin" with "Over And Over" on the 'B' side. Somewhere in a box in the garage.
