The summer of 1967 and The Bee Gees


Summer is here and it's time to think back and recall some of our favorite summer memories.

Let me remember the summer of 1967 and The Bee Gees.

In the spring of '67, Barry, Robin & Maurice Gibb released their first US album.  It was called "First" and it included three of their greatest songs:  "New York Mining Disaster 1941", "To love somebody" & "Holiday".

There were others, such as "Turn of the Century" and "Cucumber Castle".

The Bee Gees "First" sounds as fresh today as it did back then. I bought the CD version and the brothers are great.

"Horizontal" (the second album) was released later in the winter and it included "Massachusetts", "World", & "And the Sun will shine", and quite a few others.

It was enough to make me a Bee Gees' fan!

As this summer ends, let's remember the Bee Gees 1967 and wonderful music!

We remember Felice Bryant (1925-2003)


We remember Felice Bryant.   She was born Matilda Genevieve Scaduto in Wisconsin on this day in 1925 and died in 2003.

Along with her husband Diadorius Boudleaux Bryant, they composed some of the most popular tunes of the 20th century.  One of their greatest songs was " All I Have To Do Is Dream", a hit for The Everly Brothers.
