Ishake,
Many years ago, a friend and I fronted a gig at a Silver Wedding Party and one of their relatives played the Drums, Everything was tried without success to get somebody up to Dance, the Organist and Drummer went off to get a Pint leaving Mike and myself to do something, we played Albatross, and to our complete amazement the floor filled up, and when the lads returned virtually the whole place was up Dancing, how anybody can Dance to Albatross still beats me, but that is how it was !
MjO
Sorry - I actually placed the answer in the chatbox, the little story was a separate issue, that I thought you may find interesting

Nice story that MjO. The next 60's clip I'll have to make much harder.
Let me think......

ishake,
I thought the intention was to make it 'much' harder, not impossible, it hardly registers on my player (0.023 secs) and for all the good it did me, it might well have been three members of Foden Motors front section screwing up their crisp packets before striking up with BB & CF, or Bo Didley tuning up a Dobro in the Toilet, but certainly along way from T-Bone Walkers Stormy Monday Blues ??
A confused ... tired ... and ready for Bed ... MjO ... but looking forward to seeing Linda and Jim dancing to Albatross in the near future ...

We'd have to get our respective spouses' permission first, eh, Jim?

Hi Roy,
As promised a 60's Clip for you, time at a premium at the moment, and have just given it the 10 min fix-up, hope it comes down the pipe OK, you may have to click the browser refresh if you have a relatively slow machine(not capable of fast streaming) after page load, but its all only a bit of fun anyway. I will sort any problems later if there are any! ...
60's Clip - Server Link Removed

I will have to give this some thought, lots of those intro's sound similar..... to the untrained ear like mine.
MjO, your production is very slick I am impressed.
