Farin Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 I really would have thought The Ditty Bops would be something for you 50s, 60s country folk pop fans, but it seems that's not the case... is it too "indie"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should have been among my votes but I got carried by other songs I knew/loved. It's among my files by now anyways... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't have room on my list, and I have a hard time voting for songs that are totally new to me, but I really liked the song. Thanks to you & to RyanTurtle for the introduction.

Lucky Posted August 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 (edited) As you may have surmised, things were a little off kilter this week for the team, but I know you're wondering so .... Now, clever quips are for me, a bit too Hard To Handle , but if you click the link you'll see just how this weeks votes played out. Tim will come along later and add some fancy stats.

phil Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 (edited) I think this is a very good Ten. Hooray for Gram Parsons, Otis, Joe South, Joe Walsh, and I loved the video for the Castaways. I've always been a Mary-Ann fan. Edited August 22, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
