KC & THE SUNSHINE BAND: Please Don't Go

[Albion Wilde]

“Without You” Harry Nilsson

I live in a suburb of a medium-sized city, so our grocery store usually plays bland Muzak. But recently I was in there and "Without You" came over the loudspeaker, rocketing me back to a breakup in the 70s, one that got away. Thought I would cry right there in the store. It's a gut-ripper. But I loved it. Went out and bought the CD of the album it was on for my grown kid. Some classics are worth passing on.

Another type of "break-up" song:

• I Didn't Hear Nobody Pray (aka Wreck on the Highway)--Dorsey Dixon (1938)

• The Wreck of the Old 97--Vernon Dalhart (1924)

• The Wreck of the Westbound Airliner--Fred Pendleton (1931)

• the Wreck of the Shenandoah [US Navy Airship]--Vernon Dalhart (1925)

• The Sinking of the Great Titanic--Vernon Dalhart (1928)

If that will get me burning in heck, I would hate to see what some of my other parodies would get me (Beethoven, Wagner, Verdi, Handel, Borodin, Rimsky-Korsakov, Orff, Gershwin, Rogers and Hammerstein, Bizet, etc)

hehehe.
