Freddy "Boom Boom" Cannon - Palisades Park

In looking back over the history of rock & roll, the sad fact remains that very few of its original practitioners stayed true to its original big beat vision. Some made a handful of brilliant sides before broader horizons -- television or the movies -- beckoned. Others were rockers in name only, pop singers who couldn't wait to shimmy into a tuxedo, trading in stomp'n'shout hysteria for the more "respectable" future of dispensing supper club schmaltz. But Freddy Cannon was a true believer, a rocker to the bone. Freddy Cannon made rock & roll records; great noisy rock & roll records and all of them were infused with a gigantic drum beat that was an automatic invitation to shake it on down anyplace there was a spot to dance. Freddy Cannon remained true to the beat and made some really great fun rock & roll records in the bargain. Because of the time frame he enjoyed his biggest successes in -- the late '50s to the mid-'60s -- Cannon is wrongly lumped in with the "Bobbies and Frankies" that proliferated during that era. But a quick listen to any of his finest records -- all to be found on Rhino's The Best of Freddy "Boom-Boom" Cannon collection -- quickly dispels any preconceived notions of him being a pretty-boy teen idol no-talent. Cannon could genuinely rock and on two of his very best records -- "Talahassee Lassie" and "Buzz-Buzz-A-Diddle-It" -- Freddy Cannon supplies his own electric rhythm guitar, with his scrappy work on the latter record being particularly effective <b>...</b>

Great R&R hit from 1959/60. It made #3 in both the UK & US charts. I've 'enhanced' the original mono sound for added enjoyment. For superior Stereo sound add &fmt=18 to the url and refresh .... or better still go to uk.youtube.com (Recommended) Well, way down yonder in New Orleans in the land of the dreamy scenes There's a garden of Eden, ah you know what I mean Yeah, Creole babies with flashin' eyes softly whisper with tender sighs And then you stop Oh won't you give your lady fair a little smile And then you stop You bet your life you'll linger there a little while Yeah, there is heaven right here on earth with those beautiful queens Yeah, way down yonder in New Orleans Way down yonder in New Orleans, in the land of the dreamy scenes There's a garden of Eden, well you know what I mean Well, Creole babies with flashin' eyes softly whisper with tender sighs And then you stop Oh won't you give your lady fair a little smile And then you stop You bet your life you'll linger there a little while Yeah, there is heaven right here on earth with those beautiful queens Well, way down yonder in New Orleans

Freddy Cannon recorded THE URGE in 1960. It was the B-side of his Top 40 hit, JUMP OVER.

I though it might be nice to show a clearer video of my little Dansette Junior record player - spinning a 45 this time. This was one of the 10p singles I bought in Birmingham this Monday. I've always liked the tune and it's been going around in my head all this week! It dates from 1959 and is on the "Top Rank" label. The song was originally published in 1922 and there have been quite a few versions, but this must be the liveliest - "Whooo!". The Dansette does need a little work, so will be heading into my workshop for a quick service soon. The motor is a bit noisy and there is a hum which needs sorting. The sound would certainly benefit from a new cartridge too, especially the treble. Anyway, once it's sorted, I'll post another video of it sounding a bit better! Oh, by the way, I know the speed change knob is the wrong one - that will be sorted too. Hope you enjoy it!
