Recommended Posts

FYC......

Sugar Shack - Jimmy Gilmer & The Firerballs (1963)

ahh the sweet, chewy bubblegum of pre-Beatles pop :guitar:

Europa and the Pirate Twins - Thomas Dolby (1981)

this song, to me, defines 'new wave'. Do try not to actually look at the video tho :P

and the bonus, xmas special, track ....

Merry Christmas From the Family - Robert Earl Keen

I really prefer the 2005 studio version with Daryl Singletary and David Lee Murphy but couldn't find a vid

--------------- :popcorn: --------------

Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, Kwanzza or whatever your saturnalia might be known as! =:P

Note: If I announce that you have an hour left to nominate, then you can nominate until I post the nominations. Same with votes - if you don't see me posting the list of nominations or the final results (or me telling you to stop voting now), then just go ahead, I always check the thread right before I post anything. Of course sometimes I preview the final Top Ten and quickly hit refresh only to see someone's voted at the very last second, but even then I'll just make a face and count your votes anyway :shades:

Thanks kiddo. I wanna swap Pink Floyd for:

Winter Window s - Sea Wolf

I don't think Floyd will do to good this week and my kid just played Winter Windows for me and I really, really like it :D

I didn't check but I'm pretty sure it's not already on the list and I will PT you the dates because I forgot those in all the holiday goings on :doh:
