"Let's Talk Dirty In Hawaiian," John Prine
No problem. I wasn't sure why it made you smile but you didn't do anything that needed an apology.
This came out on a 45 rpm (set to music) when I was in high school, and was all the rage in my circle of friends... I had the 45 rpm of it, and one day my Dad decided to see what was on the flip side...Shel Silverstein, Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out
Yep.Well, because the name was sometimes listed as Billie Joe, not Billy Joe, there are many theories that the jumper was female. And perhaps making it an inappropriate song for humor, the inspiration was the murder of Emmett Till.

(Warning the following may be inappropriate for some listeners) ...a tune called "Stacey Brown Got Two." Not halfway thru, Dad was rolling on the floor laughing... never seen him laugh so hard in my life.
Shel Silverstein, Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out::
Hey, Woody —Removed my original post. I of course would not have known that song’s history or intent.
I was driving home from dump.
song came on. I thought her vocal inflection was humorous. I knew this song to be fictional and it was enjoyable.
I apologize Jeff and Fro.

Cement sneakers.Yep.
FWIW, you'd have to jump headfirst to die jumping off any bridge over the Tallahachie. Delta's pretty flat
Jon Lord (from Deep Purple) splits his signal from the Hammond, one side to a Leslie, the other to a overdriven Marshall. It's the key to the DP sound w/ that mid grit and growl coming from the keys. I don't think it came from the Fudge.Believe it or not I got front row seats to see Vanilla Fudge in October! Original members other than bass player, Tim Bogart, who passed away recently.
I did get to see the original members about 15 years ago.
Interestingly led Zeppelin was the opening act back in 68/69! Apparently they told Led Zep they needed bigger amps!
So the story goes the band went to see the Supreme's, got high on likey more than weed, and then did the "You keep me hanging on cover".
Apparently the band couldn't get a name that the studio executive liked and when a secretary at the recording studio told them her dad's nickname for her was "vanilla fudge" they found a winner.
Drummer and bass player went on to form Cactus then joined up with Jeff Beck in Beck, Bogart and Appice.
Word has it Deep Purple Hammond tone was based on the Vanilla Fudge tone. Not sure if that is true as VF uses a lot of fast Leslie swirl. However the overdriven tube amp tone is similar.

The clubs pay, in the form of hefty annual dues to ASCAP/BMI which give them a blanket liscense. (Same goes for having a juke box in a commercial establishment...or a commercial satellite radio subscription) The dues are based on # of nights per week w/ live music and max capacity ratings given by the regional fire Marshall.How much do tribute bands have to pay to play other people's stuff as their whole set?
Love that guy! Here's one I've been singing since I was a kid (but not in public):
