Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:28am Brian in UK:

You get a mention, Joe. (last verse)

I know a dark secluded place
A place where no one knows your face
A glass of wine, a fast embrace
It's called Hernando's Hideaway

Ole!
And all you'll see are silhouettes
And all you'll hear are castanets
And no one cares how late it gets
Not at Hernando's Hideaway

Ole!
At the Golden Fingerbowl or any place you go
You will meet your Uncle Max and everyone you know
But if you'll go the spot that I am thinkin' of

You will be free to gaze at me and talk of love
Just knock three times and whisper low
That you and I were sent by Joe
Then strike a match and you will know
You're in Hernando's Hideaway

Ole!
Just knock three times and whisper low
That you and I were sent by Joe
Then strike a match and you will know
You're in Hernando's Hideaway
Avatar ♥ 9:33am Sem Chumbo:

Ah, Hernando's Hideaway. I stage managed a production of The Pajama Game in high school, BiUK. Thanks for the memories.

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

@tadpoles: They were both presenters - but Sandie was the barefoot one I think...But I got to read wigkey say:
...'While McGowan had answered an advert for 'a typical teenager' to work as an advisor, she found herself presenting the show. Her strength was that her status as a fan of the artists was evident in her style; stumbling over her lines, losing her cool and apparent inexperience only made her more popular, and by the end she was presenting the show alone. She may have been the inspiration for Susan Campy from the Beatles' 1964 film A Hard Day's Night, when George Harrison tells the producer of a fictitious teen television show that Campy is "... that posh bird who gets everything wrong", to which the producer played by Kenneth Haigh replies, "She's a trendsetter. It's her profession." '...
- Which scene were the best thing ever.

I'm havin' flashbacks! Thanks for this groovy grooves set, Joe McG.

I'm not much of a metal fan, as regular listeners know, but this song has several redeeming features: There's that bolero part, the part where it boogies (just begun), and then there's the stolen riff. :)

next thing will be Blues Magoos "Ain't Got Nothing Yet" and Purple "Black Night"?

We had this Deep Purple live album. It was a double. And I think it had a total of about 7 songs - 2 each on three sides and 1 more taking up the last...
Avatar ♥ 11:47am Joe McG:

@Tyler: Don't tell them we have it! @Guido: ha ha ha! Purple is worse than Zeppelin with the sticky fingers.
  11:48am Brendan:

Ian Gillan has said that "Child in Time" is based on It's a Beautiful Day's psychedelic song "Bombay Calling".[1] It's a Beautiful Day in return borrowed Purple's "Wring That Neck" and turned it into "Don and Dewey" on their second album Marrying Maiden (1970). ~Wiki

@Tyler: It's OK by me, but I think WKCC might have our copy of "In Rock" since ours isn't here! Exchange program.

loverly Purple, Joe! Happy happy to ya!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Purple always had pretenses of Classical influence - BaroquePsych & then Prog...Make mine the related CaptainBeyond for ProgMetal - who picked up loose members from both U.S. & UK bands...
Avatar ♥ 11:51am Joe McG:

I never listened to the lyrics before. Is this an anti-war song?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...they were very early as Metal bands go. This thing of a HardRawk period then that wasn't all Metal yet is talked about these days...
  🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:53am tadpoles:

When did Metal first get coined? Early Deep Purple was always just called "Hard Rock" ... loved it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:53am Planet Tyler:

Joe, WKCC isnt around anymore le' google says so we're stuck w it.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:53am Brian in UK:

Nice one, Joe.

Have a great day tomorrow everyone, those not working ofcourse.
Avatar ♥ 11:54am Joe McG:

@Tyler: Aw, too bad!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Even Sabbath's fast mode was a Boogie. Surprising how early they were, really.

'Heavy' was already a Hip term...wouldn't be surprised if BlueCheer had already called themselves HeavyMetal by accident...
  11:57am frenchee:

LOOOOOOVE. You go 'round, Joe! <rose emoticon>
  11:57am Rudd Dimension:

Steppenwolf's "Heavy Metal Thunder" was an early reference, I would think.
Avatar ♥ 11:58am KP:

Woo. Great stuff here, Joe!
Avatar ♥ 11:58am Joe McG:

Thanks for keeping me company this morning, guys. Ending with the randy Tim B. wasn't exactly what I meant to end with, but I'm out of time. Have a great 4th and I'll see you next week!

I always long for the Lorca album, but it is rarely summoned.
