The FlipSide

"The FlipSide"  is an alternative to the 50's music we play on the "Turntable".  The FlipSide can be anything . . . just not 50's music.  In the following weeks I will release issues to give you a flavor for what the FlipSide is all about.  

The section is open to anyone in the Club to "Post".  Although our members may not have the ability to post a selection on their own, they may email their selections to me and I will post them.  This section is not a "Weekly" issue.  We will publish when the inspiration or suggestion comes.  In the meantime let's check this "First" issue out!

Harold "Scrappy" Lambert
 (May 12, 1901 – November 30, 1987, New Brunswick, New Jersey) was an American dance band vocalist who appeared on hundreds of recordings from the 1920s to the 1940s.  At Rutgers University he was a cheerleader and played piano for a jazz group, the Rutgers Jazz Bandits. He and fellow student Billy Hillpot formed a musical duo, which was discovered in 1926 by Ben Bernie, who signed them to perform with his orchestra. Lambert and Hillpot appeared on many recordings with the orchestra and remained under Bernie's employ until 1928.[1] wiki
Remember these are not "Our Grandkids" they're our Parents and Grandparents!!!  The 20's were a "Unique" period of time with racy music and dancing that Really Turned heads!  Can you imagine how the parents of these young adults felt?  My, my those 20's folks were naughty.  

There were plenty of cool songs during that time.  No iPods or "streaming" music of flawless quality.  You got to hear the song . . . and . . . the scratchy record.
See Ya On the FlipSide!

Really a great change from that morally corrupt rock 'n' roll stuff from the 1950s! The music is very peppy (mostly two step) and one can actually understand the words, not that the words matter much, but the pictures really do the trick. Nothing so refreshing as a mostly naked woman, right Harv? Gosh! What a treat.

Thanks Jerry! Still not sure what "The FlipSide" is . . . but I'm working on it. "Expect to be surprised!"

Gosh, I hope to be surprised... more early 20th century 'soft porn'... maybe, or 21st century music videos of brainless females making like they're singing the greatest hits of the century, naked, or mostly, even. What ever happened to really good music, Harv? Everybody seems to be tone deaf... how about something with an actual melody with words even, that one can actually understand. Paleeeese! JL
