Reach Us Here: Doug- @DJDoug Strickland- @NiceGuyonBiz Guest Twitter Show Notes by Intern Strickland Bonner You know, I wasn’t going to do show notes today, I mean with Dani on vacation I’m plenty busy enough already but when I went to the OneNote page for today’s notes…It was empty. And it’s now [1:18] AM so Anna has forced my hand by leaving me noteless (we’ll talk about this tomorrow Anna). You know, I do have a day job, I need to be up in like 4.5 hours to get my kids off to school but since some of you actually chimed in on the Facebook group today (www.niceshortcut.com) to day that you actually read my notes on Tuesday, I guess I can’t disappoint the Funk’Nfans. I mean, it’s not enough that Doug and I publish episodes 6 days a week and never take a break even for holidays, nooooooo we need to do this stuff for you guys too? Well, that’s what we get for raising the bar, right? We’ve set expectations and now we have to live up to them, we’ve buttered our own bread and now we have to sleep in it, (sleepwalk was Johnny and Santo, one of the first instrumental hits to make the pop charts in 1959 and then The Ventures did a remake of it later which is interesting because they later had an instrumental hit with “Walk-Don’t run”, something you should always do if there’s a fire which was a hit for The Crazy World of Arthur Brown AND Jimi Hendrix, although it was 2 different songs even though they had the same title, speaking of Jimi Hendrix he started his career opening for The Monkees (he was booed off the stage and feigned illness to drop out halfway through the tour) but the Monkees are still the only group in Billboard history to have their first 4 albums all make it to #1, not even The Beatles did that (because their first album “Introducing the Beatles” was released in England and didn’t top the charts, but “Meet the Beatles” released in the US did) but as big as The Beatles were, Grand Funk Railroad actually sold out Shea Stadium faster than they did in a record 15 minutes, they were huge at the time although few people remember them now except maybe for their hit “The Loco-Motion” which was actually a remake of a song from Martha and the Vandellas who had a hit with it in the early 60’s but that wasn’t the first time a remake would be a bigger hit than the original, Bruce Springsteen wrote and recorded “Blinded by The Light” and it never even hit the charts but Manfred Mann’s Earth Band did it a few years later and it was their biggest hit, in fact many of The Byrd’s hits were actually Bob Dylan remakes but their biggest hit “Turn Turn Turn” while credited to Pete Seeger was actually quoted directly from the bible which Prince was also known to quote from, although usually in a more sarcastic way…Oh shit, did I take up all the space for the show notes? Sorry guys, that’s just how my brain works and if you want me to write the show notes, you get what you get. I hope you enjoy the girls’ takeover part 2 today.
