Hey gang, it gives ol' Dewey great pleasure to welcome one of our favorite songbirds to the Record Party. She's agreed to do a bunch of her biggest hits for us, so let's really make her feel welcome!

It's none other than PETULA CLARK...

Love this thread! Except I have to watch it at 2 am, to get the youtube to feed through. Sigh.
I went to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with my kids this past weekend and wow. I always considered myslef fairly conversant with classic rock but boy, was I wrong. Especially about the groups of the 50's and the early influences. Try youtubing Leadbelly, Howlin' Wolf, Bessie Smith, and Professor Longhair for starters. Great stuff.

[Dewey1960]

Hey Tracey, a big Thank You from the gang here at the Record Party for your kind words! Congrats on making it down to the R&R Hall o' Fame in Cleveland! In the meantime, here's a special dedication just for you!

Wow. Mrs. Dewey and I just got back from a fun-filled day in the sun with some of our pals in Berkeley. All we did really was lounge around, drink a little and listen to 60s French pop music. Around a pool. And just cuz Dewey's a benevolent host, here's a sample of how the day went...courtesy of SERGE GAINSBOURG and some of his more alluring friends---

Just this morning the beautiful Mrs. Dewey gave me one of those looks and said, "Why aren't you playing that groovaliciously intoxicating Japanese pop music that I love so much at your oh so cool Record Party?" She had me there. So I made a few calls and cashed in a few favors. These are for you, Sweetheart!
