Trashy's specifics in the original book

[César Hernández-Meraz]

Can't wait till your read the DT series, Cesar.

Me neither.

Should I put "The Heroes of Olympus" and "The Shining" on hold? The first DT novel is so short (after reading "It", "The Stand" and "Under The Dome" one after the other, reading those pages look like a kid's game.

This all would have been much easier to understand if the uncut edition was named as originally intended...........The Sit.

He is described to sound as a black singer. A manager is dying (and actually died, I suppose) to have him cover "Hang on, Sloopy" (I would really like to hear that, actually). He is described as having long hair.
All of that, in 1980, would make me think of the Rock 'n Roll 1960s.

This is Darryl Hall of Hall & Oates in the 1980s. He sang "blue eyed soul" and was frequently described as sounding like a "black singer."

Thanks for that! I'll have to listen to that song once I get home.

"blue eyed soul" is not a song, sorry. It's a type of music alluding to the fact that blue eyes are associated with "white people" and soul with "black people."
This would be a good example of him singing a "blue eyed soul" song.

Gotta love Bobby and Sissy and the endless polkas, lol. More cowbell? Nahhh...maybe more accordion.

I only saw it when Mrs. Cunningham, our 80 year old baby sitter had us. The only thing that I remember is when they did the Batman theme, in costume. I loved me some Batman.

I'm currently drawing a(nother) pic of Larry Underwood and this time update was troublesome in some aspects.

He is described to sound as a black singer. A manager is dying (and actually died, I suppose) to have him cover "Hang on, Sloopy" (I would really like to hear that, actually). He is described as having long hair.

All of that, in 1980, would make me think of the Rock 'n Roll 1960s.

But in 1990, I guess I could think of the 1960s, too, but I have other images in my head, both from the 1970s and 1980s. So I don't have as clear an image (sound?) of Larry in my mind as I would if things happened 10 years earlier.

 

[Walter Oobleck]

had another thought...I think this is it.

Spoiler

Frosty the Snowman. Bumpity bump bump, look at Frosty go! I hope I'm not mishearing lyrics again. That happens from time to time.

And yeah, Lawrence Welk was on, not that the kids in the house watched. A one! and a two!, you got the bubbles coming up from behind the set. I liked the bubbles, all those happy campers cutting up the dance floor. There was usually one couple with a little more zip than the others...gin, I think. Ginned up. Wondered if Leon Redbone ever played a bass fiddle, whutchamacallums. Somebody. That guy...Pablo something or other? I think he used a thing...a stick with that cat gut strung from end to end. He played. Can't think of his last name...might not have his first name. Pablo Casals? Something about the G-string. Instrument.

That's just all kinds of awkward.

...more than a little huh?....how 'bout this from my State's pride & joy?....

 

[César Hernández-Meraz]

Now I just want to get home to watch all these videos...

I heard somewhere that Sissy pissed of Lawrence and got replaced.

I had a few black friends back in the day when Hall & Oates came out with their first album. This was way before MTV and YouTube, so no one knew what they looked like until they had their first major TV appearance. I can tell you that my black friends were very surprised (as were the rest of us) that these guys were white.

Sounds good. I like it.

And I love that "Hang on, Sloopy" video. Even as a gay man I cannot deny that Sloopy looks great!

Now go listen to 'Rich Girl'. This is the one that made everyone think that they were black artists.
