Dennis Diken's avatar View Dennis Diken's profile Favoriting

Step into Denny’s Den to give yourself a little lift as you make your way through the busy day. Or take a break and make the world go away for a while. Dig on platters a-plenty, from The Chantels to Del Shannon, The Small Faces to Jimmy Reed. And so much more. Maybe some Basie and Kenton? Relax. You’ve earned it!

funny you played bang bang when i've been thinking about it since last night, when someone on the comments board posted (for no apparent reason) "toot toot", and my unavoidable reaction was to post "beep beep"...

MC's "Field Day" is still one of my favorite albums of all time! I love the reverb!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:37pm
Dennis Diken:

@Wild Honey - so cool to see you here! @Gaylord - COPY THAT!! @coelacanth∅ - funnily, I discovered from the Joe Cuba pic sleeve I posted on the playlist that it's actually "ah bi bi" -! who knew? @Reechie - agreed!!
  3:37pm
Dudski:

It isn't often someone's second album is better than their first but "Field Day" was really good.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:38pm
Dennis Diken:

@Dudski - I dig Field Day the most!! agreed!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:42pm
Gaylord Fields:

That MHC followed up his all-killer-no-filler debut with an album that begins with a tune as essential as "Whenever You're on My Mind" still blows my musical mind.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:44pm
coelacanth∅:

ha...*i* didn't know! i wonder if Donna Summer knew!
