Marty Robbins--Cool Water I like the version of this tune by Noel Parmentel entitled "Cool Goldwater." The refrain is as follows:
Democrats are hacks.
They will always show their backs.
They're too chicken to attack,
And they'll never counteract Goldwater. Man, can't you see, since '33,
This tax-and-spending spree's
Been killing off both me and you.

This song was penned by a young Neil Diamond who was yet another Brill Building alumni along with Jeff Barry, Ellie Greenwich, Barry Mann, Gerry Goffin and Billy Martin among others. Many of Diamond's early songs including "I'm A Believer" became instant hits for the Monkees and helped launch his recording career, but artists like Carrol King and Harry Nilsson also owe The Monkees a debt for exposing their music to a worldwide audience.

For my last selection of the evening here's Davy singing another song written by Neil Diamond. The song went to the top of the charts for The Monkees and paved the way as a prototype of Diamond's own monster-hit "Cherry, Cherry". The hand-clapping was added for the top 40 radio single and was such a success that the clapping was carried over on "Cherry, Cherry" (which is essentially the same tune and strum pattern in a different key). When a songwritter composes the same song over and over with success it's called "style". When done without success it's called recycling. Either way, this classic Wrecking Crew jam is relentless.

Oh my gosh, Taz....that was pretty close. Do you have a cellar? A basement? Some place safe to hunker down in?
Prayers for all those in trouble from the horrific weather.

You’re most welcome Kathy.
Down to snow showers now, and this week has been 1-2” of snow day and night for the most part this week.

It’s gonna be a white St Patrick’s Day.
Sounds like your tractor was busy.
Fortunately our weather guessers have been wrong all week....a couple inches Monday night, about 3 Tuesday night, and only minimal since then. We made it through today with only a dusting.
We’ve had enough, thank you very much.
