Rock Evolution – The History of Rock & Roll - 1962 (pg 69)

[Saddleworth2]

I took our playlists 'on the road' to various parties and family gatherings over Christmas and New Year and they were very popular, especially the pre 60's pop and 60 and 61. I told folk the basis of this thread and they were really interested. What a library of music we are building :-).

One thing our playlists will show is a great song is a great song irrespective of the era or style. From one of the great albums of 62 - Modern Sounds In Country and Western Music Vol 1.

Ray Charles - You Don't Know Me

Though I'm happy enough to have used my novelty choice on Bernard Cribbins I've just noticed that Monster Mash was 1962 as well.

Adding it in because I have a great memory of my Dad singing it to my kids at a Halloween party we had. He used a comedy voice and had them giggling.

Also, we're having mash for tea tonight!

I've always loved Clyde McPhatter's 1962 version of 'Lover Please.'
