Sure, Kathy!   ((HUGS BACK))

Here's one more from 1957 - an instrumental that was quite popular that year, and a version that was released by someone else several years later, which was also very popular, while the 3rd version here is just some unknown guys jamming.        :-)

(It is said that this was the song that got George Harrison into the Quarrymen / Beatles.)

1957 version:

       "Raunchy" - Bill Justis

1963 version:

       "Raunchy" - Duane Eddy

1994 version:

       "Raunchy" - The Beatles (3 of them)

This version was popular on the West Coast. It was a fixture on the playlist of KWIZ, my favorite music station, in the late '60's. However, I like the Bill Justis version best.
