daslied Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 OK, we need a band-aid on this thread. Maybe I should be prohibited from broadcasting anything even slightly offensive to anyone's intellect or philosophy of life? Of course, some people are way too easily offended, and seek to make sure other people aren't exposed to certain things. The man's always trying to keep me down - damn censors. Gotta protect us from ourselves, after all. OK, I'm spent. I'm going to clear my head, and try another channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daslied Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 I was hoping the "band, bandanas and bandoliers" thing would seal it. Do you know how hard it was to get in a fluid sentence that had a BBC pun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazooka Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 I'm hard at work searching "Sophomore-lookin' early 60s but post-Beatles five-member groups". ------------------------------ new link: Joe Cocker David Lee Roth David Cassidy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Laurie_ Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 All covered hits from 1967?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazooka Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 Well Laurie, 'covers' is on the right track. The link I'm looking for can be measured by the specific songs. Cocker did two covers -- one each from '66 and '67 originals. Diamond Dave's was '66. And David "Keith Partridge" Cassidy went way back to 1965.

_Laurie_ Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 Okay...With A little help from my friends, the cover was much slower than the original, and I'm not sure about the other songs...Cherish or How Can I be sure by Cassidy, and California Girls or Gigilo...was that a cover?

bazooka Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 ... or Gigilo...was that a cover? Laurie! Turn in your Songfacts badge! "David Lee Roth recorded a word for word, note for note, solo for solo copy of Louis Prima's 1956 version of Just A Gigolo - I Ain't Got Nobody. Just A Gigolo was originally recorded by jazz artist Ted Lewis in 1931. It also had been done by Bing Crosby, Les Brown & His Orchestra, Jaye P. Morgan, Sarah Vaughan, Carmen McRae, Louis Armstrong and others before Roth's 1985 hit." ------------------------------- By the way, none of the songs you named are connected to the link. I guess I'll have to help the hint medicine go down with small doses of sugar (The 'covers' are all from one big-hearted source). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Laurie_ Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 Hey Bazooka give me a break OK?....get the violins out for my sob story, coz it was 3:00 in the a.m when I was reading this and I just didnt have time to look that up, and another thing, I'm not a real big fan of David Lee Roth...so there and I'm gonna go have some coffee and I'll be back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazooka Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 and another thing, I'm not a real big fan of David Lee Roth... Are there any? I sure don't want be branded even a very small fan. What's with that little squeeze-toy squeak? He effed up all the 'covers' he's done (Beach Boys, Kinks, etc.), including the less well-known one in my question. Louis Prima and Keely Smith. Now that was something! I guess I'll have to interrupt my daydream. Because you're a younger girl, you'll probably need more hints about the source for the Cocker, Roth and Cassidy's remakes.

bazooka Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 OK Laurie! You can have your badge back -- but we're keeping the gun. Looks like you made the link mere seconds before edna pounced. just the facts, ma'am: Joe Cocker (who pretty much does nothing but 'covers' in his own grand style) did both Darling Be Home Soon and Summer In The City. Not only did David Cassidy cover Do You Believe In Magic, but his step-brother Shaun Cassidy outdid him with the same song (charted in the Top 40 in 1978). And David Lee Roth effed up the Spoonful's Coconut Grove on the same album he effed up Just A Gigolo and California Girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
