This song was written by a prolific songwriter, but is a bit of a switch from others that he wrote and sang.  To me it has a caribbean flavour, wheras his previous efforts were more like ballads.

This band was very prolific during the late sixties and early seventies.  They were right up there with Led Zeppelin in popularity.  But like LZ they broke up before their popularity waned.  This was one of their biggest and earliest hits.

A popular music song from the sixties.  I think I was about 14 when I heard this one.

This is a really old song....going back almost 100 years.  This version was popular in the early 70's.

This street musician, Roberto Jimenez, was gifted an American 52 reissue telecaster. Jump to 1:40 to hear a stylish cover

Here is a song from one of the most important songwriters of the last century.  He passed away yesterday.

Burt Bacharack. An absolute genius. His use of big band backdrop, Hal David lyrics and extreme talent singers. There will not be another like this guy.

The album was Revolver.  It was the best album to date and maybe the second best they eventually produced.  It was a turning point from silly love songs to more serious topics.  They began to experiment with multi track recording and strange sounds.  This was one of their strangest songs.

He wrote many popular songs, but not this one, although of all of his work this is the one I like best.  Sure wish though that he would add six inches to his pants cuffs.

 Chubby Checker made this song famous but he wasn't the first to record it.  This guy wrote and recorded it a year before CC.

Love songs can be emotional.  This one brings tears to my eyes.

I listened to this song a lot back in the day.  It was an essential album for anyone into rock music to have.

I was sent this video of a busker in England playing guitar. A pretty good attempt of the Shadows classic Apache.        https://youtu.be/JRzi6VOUpzU
