it’s been 47 years, not 37 since Mama Cass passed. The 70’s have drifted so far away!

She was a hell of an entertainer with a great voice. A sad soul for sure. She had a child out of wedlock but refused to say who the father was.

Precisely. If she plays her cards right, maybe 200. Wouldn’t another century of Pelosi be swell? /s

Willie Winfield, who headed the Harp-Tones, a singing group that waxed a number of disks in the 1950's, passed away recently. Although they didn't see much action on the national charts, they were popular in the northeastern US, and their disks are sought after by collectors. They were still rockin' in the early 2000's, sounding better than they did on shellac.

He wrote very widely admired children's books. This is perhaps the most famous:

It's on YouTube as well. I read the book to my kid; I play the video for the next generation:
