The Coachmen's Turntable 11/27/2017

Oh my God! It's Christmas already!

Good Morning Everyone!
Happy Cyber Monday

Buy something online today and you're part of the "high tech" community.  How hard is that?  Oh, by the way, as the picture on our dining room table clearly reflects, Christmas is right around the corner.  Hmmmm!  seems to me  that

---

today you could become a "techie" and get a really good deal on a Christmas gift at the same time.  Not bad!

Special social commentary:
I used to try to "grab people's attention" when I had something important to say.  Not anymore . . . In view of today's political environment I don't want to get caught "grabbing" anything!!!  Seriously, this is not funny.  Especially if you're the one being grabbed.  Personally I have never been grabbed myself.  Apparently I fall below people's "grabbable" standards.   That's OK . . . I'll get over it!  In the meantime I hope those folks, who have been "grabbed", keep those reports coming.  Perhaps, in time, people will learn to keep their hands to themselves!

Great stuff on the Turntable today.  First up . . "The Colorado Trail" by The Kingston Trio!  The flipSide features Earl Stephen Bishop.  Probably don't remember his name but I'm sure you'll remember the music!

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

"Rebel-'Rouser" is a rock and roll instrumental recorded by Duane Eddy. Released as a single in 1958, it charted #6 Pop.[1]  The song was used in the 1994 movie Forrest Gump and was featured on the film's soundtrack. The song was also used in the 2010 video game Mafia II.
​

The Colorado Trail is a traditional American cowboy song, collected and published in 1927 by Carl Sandburg in his American Songbag.[1] Sandburg says that he learned the song from Dr. T. L. Chapman, of Duluth, Minnesota, who heard it from a badly injured cowboy being treated in his hospital. The cowboy sang it, and many others, to an audience of patients in his ward.[2] The song got its widest attention from its 1960 recording by The Kingston Trio. ​

​"That'll Be the Day" is a song written by Buddy Holly and Jerry Allison. It was first recorded by Buddy Holly and the Three Tunes in 1956 and was re-recorded in 1957 by Holly and his new band, the Crickets. The 1957 recording achieved widespread success. 

"On and On" is a song by American singer/songwriter Stephen Bishop. The song became a major hit, peaking at number 11 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.[1] It was his greatest hit, and spent 28 weeks on the chart. In Canada, the song peaked at number 6.[2]
