Howdy!

Another fine fall day.  We have been fortunate lately.  Temps have been in the 60's and 70's for several weeks now.  Look out!  This won't last!  We're living in the Great White North for heaven's sake!  We don't have to look too far back to find snow knee deep and temps in the 20's this time of year.  
Fortunately there are activities that fit in nicely with the cold weather.  Skiing, sledding, snowboarding, snowblowing . . . ooops, there I went and spoiled it!  Oh well, we're all hearty northerners and know how to stay in the house, sit by the fire with a good book and a hot toddy.  Right??   Ouch!  just found out that we might be shoveling in a week???

The Turntable features Bobby Darin and Buddy Holly this week.  Anyone been to Branson Missouri?  Mickey Gilley has a Saloon there where he shows up time to time to sing some of the oldies he's known for.  Don't remember him?  You will today on The flipSide!  On Sucks News JL regales us with his, as always, Brilliant Substantive material.  Check it out!
                               Till Next week / Stay safe and I'll see you on the Turntable!

"Dream Lover" is a song written by Bobby Darin and recorded by him on April 6, 1959. Darin decided to stretch out some chord changes he found on the piano and add strings and voices.[1] It was released as a single on Atco Records in the U.S. in 1959. It became a multi-million seller, reaching No.2 on the U.S. charts for a week and No.4 on the R&B charts.[2] ​
"Oh, Boy!" is a song written by Sonny West, Bill Tilghman and Norman Petty. It was originally recorded by Sonny West in the late 1950s but did not achieve commercial success. It was later recorded by Buddy Holly and the Crickets between June 29 and July 1, 1957, at Petty Studios in Clovis, New Mexico.  The song peaked at number 10 on the US charts, and number 3 on the UK charts in early 1958. ​
​"Great Balls of Fire" is a 1957 popular song recorded by Jerry Lee Lewis on Sun Records[4] and featured in the 1957 movie Jamboree. It was written by Otis Blackwell and Jack Hammer. The Jerry Lee Lewis 1957 recording was ranked as the 96th greatest song ever by Rolling Stone. The song is in AABA form.[5] The song sold one million copies in its first 10 days of release in the United States and sold over five million copies, making it both one of the best-selling singles in the United States, as well as one of the world's best-selling singles of all time.
​"Quinn the Eskimo (The Mighty Quinn)" is a folk-rock song written by Bob Dylan and first recorded during The Basement Tapes sessions in 1967. The song was recorded in December 1967 and first released in January 1968 as the "Mighty Quinn" by the British band Manfred Mann[2] and became a great success. It has been recorded by a number of performers, often under the "Mighty Quinn" title.
