[L.T.]

  What can I say but, some smooooth Chord Changes. You the man  Funny story on my side, Being of Italian decent,back in the 1950's just about every parent in my neighborhood wanted their sons to be musicians.  I guess in those days it was the next best thing to a college education as the parents in my neighborhood could never be able to afford.  That being said,  my brother took up the accordian and I was schooled on the clarinet later alto and tenor sax. So, every time  there was a family get together, we were displayed individually because  we were not taught transposition to change key as to be in the same key with each other as of yet. So,We would be performing our Azzes off and thinking I was the next out of towner Goodman or at least Aker Bilk.  After we were done with our respective performances my family would give us pity applause and say that was very good,KEEP PRACTICING. Both my brother and I would discuss this with each other.   Our argument was, If that was very good why did we have to keep practicing. We always looked forward to the day when they would just say, Very good  Fast forward into my teens and it all paid off, Chicks really dug tenor sax players in the band, clarinet? not too much.  So now , I'm a Tenor tooter, Daddio  So, years later my musical career gone to the wayside' I meet my future wife, the subject comes up and I break out the Sax and start whalin Honky Tonk, Peter Gunn and my all time applause getter, Harlem Nocterne Where, you get real rauncy and put the groul into the horn.  I get done and think to myself I really nailed it.  She Gives me pity applause an says: you know, if you keep  practicing you ---------------- .  So,SJ I'm not going to tell you to keep practicing but, keep on jammin. Good Job

Although not my fave I think "Christmas Lullaby" by Pogues frontman Shane McGowan deserves a mention.

Not a chance, Rick!   

Come on!
Eddie and LT can help back you up.

[SurfJockey]

Last time I probably played was for the creation of this video. 

[Still Running]

You have time to get back in the grove. It's ridding a bike.

[L.T.]

Cmon SJ, a little practice we could sound like this and be ready for the 2030 NJSF Banquet.  You'll just have to exume me and prop me up with a stick

 

[paul-e]

Jay!!!! Great job 

[Offshore Madness]

Then why did you respond?

 

You asked a question...I answered your question...

[Bucktail]

Wow!  Just got treated to a ton of great stuff there!   I saw this thread earlier, but I can't get YouTube on my phone.

Paul-e (I mean ) - Run DMC huh?  Interesting choice.  
The Waitresses song is definite classic though.
That a cool clip from Hendrix too.  Never saw that before.

Rick - My wife is a big Jimmy Buffet fan.  She likes that and Mele Kaliki Maka.
My daughter liked the disco Santas.

IKAT - I've always loved Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer.  Reminds me of the old Dr. Demento show.
I think we're getting away from the Rock & Roll theme with Joe Dolce.  Still funny though.  We could do a three page thread of "The 12 Days of Christmas" parodies. 

L.T. - I like that version better.   Don Henley's voice gets on my nerves.

Jason - Awesome video!   You now have had your official Bababooey moment!   I think the dog thought you were sing to him!

Mark - Chuck Berry is in my top 5!  Love it!

usd1007 (Still haven't changed that eh? )  - I never heard that song.  Very touching and strange at the same time.

Offshore - You must have one you like.

Keep 'em coming guys.  I love this!

Here's one I posted last year.  I'm calling it Rock & Roll only because Bowie's in it.  Although, it's really not at all.  I just love it though.  Skip to 1:45 if you just want to hear the song.
