You seem to be into the Motown/Acapella groups, rather than the swing music of the time.. I like it..
How was Beethoven back then anyways?
Was he as prolific as they say he was?

toss a few quarters in the jukebox and enjoy!
To quote the immortal Alan Freed, "This, boys and girls, is rock 'n roll!"
Since it's almost halloween, I thought this song would put us in the spirit... many years after it's initial release this version was used as the theme for the movie "American Werewolf in London"
[youtube]bJavHuHAjgY[/youtube]
I always liked this one, although it was originally made as a spoof of rock 'n roll...
[youtube]af8gMs0b7qM[/youtube]
And of course you remember this from a fairly recent movie which changed the entire meaning of the song... but this is the original...
[youtube]EXT_SFZ-UME[/youtube]
Here's a really sweet song if you happen to be in love... or ever have been...
[youtube]w16S8WOns5c[/youtube]
Another movie tune from back in the day.... you can still hear this in most any gay bar in the world.... something totally unheard of when this song was popular...
[youtube]Tdfze6zGdbQ[/youtube]
Jay and the Americans sing a song with a message for all you guys...
[youtube]I57VmRIr_8Q[/youtube]
Now to quiet things down a bit....
[youtube]sKaW4HSnmDU[/youtube]
And how can you have rock 'n roll without Dion?? Dion recorded this when he was 16-17.
[youtube]MLn6pUOd5CE[/youtube]
Let's hear from Jay and the Americans again... what a vocal range and a great set of lungs Jay Black has! (try not to laugh at the go-go dancers in this video!)
[youtube]1sFy5_kmEi4[/youtube]
And while we're on the letter "J", how 'bout Dr.Jay Segal and The Tokens?? Dr.Jay *really* is a doctor (PhD) and made the original hit recording of this when he was 16... i couldn't find a period recording, but this one is great... just imagine the old gray headed guy is 16..

enjoy!
