​HAPPY THANKSGIVING

I hope you all have a Wonderful day!  Not so much for the guy in the upper left!  Oh well, I guess we all serve different purposes.  In his case HE just gets SERVED!  Pretty lame joke . . . even by my standards . . . Oh yes I do have standards.  Who knew?

Man!  Christmas is coming at us like a speeding bullet!  Shopping is always such a chore!  Unlike most,  we don't do our shopping at "brick & mortar stores" or "Online".  And yet, we've never had a disappointed child or adult, no shipping cost to detract from the gift's value, never had to hassle with a return, exchange or refund.   We do our shopping at the bank!  Ok! Ok! it's a bit like cheating but it works for us!

​The Everly Brothers and The Kingston Trio are on the lineup today on The Coachmen's Turntable!  The flipSide this week features Billy Joel!  Great Songwriter and performer.  Be sure to tune in.  Finally JL brings us "Signs of the Times" on Suck's News.

Till Next week / be safe and I'll see you on the Turntable!

​Frankie Valli (born Francesco Stephen Castelluccio; May 3, 1934) is an American singer, known as the frontman of The Four Seasons beginning in 1960. He is known for his unusually powerful falsetto voice.

​Sold Out is an album by American folk music group the Kingston Trio, released in 1960 (see 1960 in music). It was their third LP to reach #1, stayed there for twelve weeks, and received an RIAA gold certification the same year. "El Matador" b/w "Home From the Hill" was its lead-off single, though it just made the Top 40.[1] Sold Out remained in the Top 40 for 54 weeks, longer than any other Trio album.[2]

​Roy Kelton Orbison (April 23, 1936 – December 6, 1988), nicknamed the Big O, was an American singer-songwriter known for his distinctive, impassioned voice, complex song structures, and dark emotional ballads. The combination led many critics to describe his music as operatic, giving him the sobriquet "the Caruso of Rock".[1] Between 1960 and 1964, 22 of his songs placed on the Billboard Top 40, including "Only the Lonely" (1960), "Crying" (1961), and "Oh, Pretty Woman" (1964).
