🎡 RIP Freddy Cannon 🎡

I played his 1962 single Palisades Park over and over as a child ...

🎵 You'll never know how great a kiss can feel
When you stop at the top of a ferris wheel 🎵

Born in Revere, Mass in 1936, he was 89 when he passed

I was talking to a bloke at one of the gigs I went to last week. We chatted mostly about jazz, but got into gigs generally.

He said that the first gig he went to was the Beatles, with the Yardbirds as support (and Hughie Green as the MC) at the Hammersmith Odeon.

His father took him; he was nine.

A quick search pulls up a Christmas show in 1964.

What a start to a gig-going career! Sixty one years of music.

Howdy,

For me, reliving what our country went through in the 60's gives me hope. I’m less concerned about Trump. Because we made it through segregation, civil rights, voting rights, deep divisions in our country and Vietnam. We put a man on the moon. If Trump does win maybe things have to get worse before they get better?

Owning a fallout shelter was the ultimate status symbol in the ’60s—if you could afford it. Explore the class divides and absurdity of the fallout shelter craze.

The Gaslight Cafe

The Greenwich Village coffeehouse opened in 1958. Originally it was a "basket house" where unpaid performers would pass around a basket at the end of each set in order to be paid. The cafe became a gathering place for beatniks, artists, poets, and folk singers with a large variety of performances.

Selma to Montgomery Civil Rights March, 1965

Am interested in comparing historiographical arguments that effectively broaden a concept in order to include precedents, adjacencies, or later events that previously were treated separately.

Example #1: the long #CivilRightsMovement

Example #2: The Movement / #TheSixties (a la Terry Anderson)

Other examples, #Histodons? Does this "move" have a name?

(If not, could we call it umbrella-ing?)

Been a long time since I listened to this rock masterpiece. It was a mainstay of my 1968 - 69 life. It's long, it makes weird noises, and it's in actual real STEREO. Give it a whirl. It's mind-bending. #music #rockmusic #classicrock #TheSixties

#Podcast number three this morning is another of my absolute favourites: #Goalhanger’s #TheRestIsHistory with historians Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook. It’s part two of their look at #TheSixties - miniskirts, Sgt. Pepper, hippies, youth culture, the whole gamut 😊 https://open.spotify.com/episode/4ketE3UViKhrTgNbzWMogx?si=p0CMsledQgWcLg_me7PiOQ #Spotify

I have to say, I haven’t read a biography of Seeger’s life, but I haven’t read a biography of Dylan either

But #PeteSeeger comes up more often in the stuff about the #FBI and the #blacklist and the #environmental movement in #theSixties

Like they made those movies about #MrRogers and everybody recognized him as a good person?

The world would be a better place with a movie about the Seegers

Toshi met him at a square dance and they were married for 70 years, so wholesome!
