Speaking of rockabilly, the other day I was listening to the car radio with my mom and a song was playing, don’t know who was singing but it was “Crazy Little Thing Called Love,” and the DJ said after it that it was reminiscent of early Elvis.

Mom huffed, “Does no one recall Gene Vincent?”

And I knew exactly what she meant. But Tony Orlando? That name I had to google.

I’m not much better at ‘70s films, although a few outstanding made-for-tv flicks are in the repertoire.

Looking forward to a ‘50s music thread...
