Ms. Carol was always kind of ditsy. Maybe her mom used to tease her that her father was the milkman and he was black.

I’ve loved him since I was a teenager, and revel in the fact that most of the world thinks he’s a one hit wonder

He had a few other hits--or at least they got airplay in Southern California. I haven't followed this up to see if it's true, but a DJ in a 1963 broadcast said that the Linda in this song became his wife.

Reminds me of how once Blacks were giving categorization by the amount of black blood or creole blood they had.

Wasn’t Napoleon’s Josephine, creole?

Grandma always said I was a “Black Norwegian”. She told me that creamed Herring was soul food.

Sounds funny. I’ll have to try to find on YT. I haven’t seen that movie. The only one I saw parts of with her in it was Idiocracy.

We can’t all be black. Who’s going to pay for our grievances?

Grandma used to jam with Dizzy Gillespie and Miles Davis. After the session, they’d smoke a few fish.
