   Good Morning Everyone!
              John "No were not going back!  
  You've already have everything but the kitchen sink!

We'll, we arrived in Florida!  Can't say we enjoyed the trip that much.  Traffic was horrendous!  It rained most of the way down here.  In Tennessee a guy in a pickup pulling a rather large enclosed utility trailer passed us like we were standing still.  We were driving at about 74 mph at the time.  About an hour later, after a rather long traffic delay, we passed him . . . he was off on the right side of the road . . . truck smashed right into the stone outcrop you often see in the Smokies.  We couldn't tell if he was hurt.  It looked like he could have survived if he had his seatbelt on.  Will we never learn?

The Turntable begins with The Sheb Wooley song "Purple People Eater" . . .   On The flipSide it's all Roy Orbison with a little bit of Johnny Cash sprinkled in for good measure.  Skip will be back next week with the final installment of   "Halibut Spirit story"  I've previewed it and can tell you,  you don't want to miss it!

​
That's a wrap!  
​Till Next week / be safe and I'll see you on the Turntable!

​"The Purple People Eater" is a novelty song written and performed by Sheb Wooley, which reached no. 1 in the Billboard pop charts in 1958 from June 9 to July 14, reached no. 12 overall in the UK singles chart and topped the Australian charts.

​"
Young Love" is a popular song, written by Ric Cartey and Carole Joyner,[1] and published in 1956. The song became a hit several times over the years with well known cover versions released by Sonny James, Tab Hunter (in a version that went to number one in 1957)
"Crying in the Chapel" is a song written by Artie Glenn for his son Darrell to sing. Darrell recorded it while still in high school in 1953, along with Artie's band the Rhythm Riders. The song was rejected by Hill and Range Songs and Acuff-Rose Music. The song was eventually published by Valley Publishers which also released the single featuring Darrell Glenn. It became a local hit and then it went nationwide
"Earth Angel" (occasionally referred to as "Earth Angel (Will You Be Mine)") is a song by American doo-wopgroup the Penguins. Produced by Dootsie Williams, it was released as their debut single in October 1954 on Dootone Records. ​The Penguins' only hit, it eventually sold in excess of 10 million copies. The original recording of the song remained an enduring hit single for much of the 1950s, and it is now considered to be one of the definitive doo-wop songs. In 2005, it was one of 50 recordings chosen by the Library of Congress to be added to the National Recording Registry, deeming it "culturally, historically, or aesthetically important."

​Till Next Week
