Why cant they make music like this anymore? Yakity Yak....

Boots Randolph, I think is who you mean on yakety sax.

I'll listen to it, but will not play it for all the money in your pockets.

Ive heard this one too but--nope--I was talking about The Coasters song. I never tire of music from that time frame..

The 2 "nonsense" songs that come to mind are.

"Teeny weenie polka dot bikini"
and
"One eyed, one horned flying purple people eaters".

Amazing what we would actually listen to.

Speaking of "Bikini" that song recently had a sixtith?? anniversary a few months ago.

As I recall that music was made a felony by the opera crowd.
My Sunday School teacher said it was the devils music.

They would have a series of heart-attacks if they knew what is played on the radio now?

And I don't think I've seen this one mentioned! One of my all time favs and it almost makes me want to buy one!

The Little Nash Rambler .........beep beep

Ive never heard this one or the group before? This would take some getting used to.

The father in law was making sport of my taste in music some years ago.

I mentioned a popular song from his era called 'Ragg Mopp'. No only was it nonsensical, it's wasn't even spelled correctly. We agreed no generation had a lock on 'real' music.

Still a fun song though...,

Now I feel like listening to: Ollie Oop and Purple People Eater.

One reason is most of the new "artists" today don't know how to play a musical instrument. That use to be a prerequisite.

they are out there, they just don't make it onto most radio stations...

 

[speedyquad]

Sadly--yep. The only rap I actually like--is the very old school stuff.The funniest I heard was by a guy named: Ugly Kid Joe--and it came out about twenty three years ago.

ugly kid joe was not (c)rap, or even close to it. nor was it one guy. it was a real band. slightly more towards the less serious side though...

about the same time, there was green jello until they were sued and had to become green jelly...very nonsensical...and not a lot of talent though...

Nonsense, you say? Hard to top this one from Weird Al.

this is sadly true.
its the ones that actually DO know what to do with an instrument that are shoved into the underground.

Alter Bridge "Blackbird" comes to mind.
Might not like it, but you can't say they did it wrong

On watching that clip--I noticed something interesting. Who in hollywood--do you think looks -- facial-wise--like Oop? Hint--he is a main character in: The Walking Dead.

I never said Ugly Kid Joe was ****--I liked what I heard. However--im no fan of ninety-nine percent of rap music.
