It's been a gazillion years since I've heard that song!

@berdie

Yes, it goes way back. I have always loved it. Reminds me of Garner State Park. Used to love Bobby Helms' version. Then Johnny Rodriguez recorded it and did a great job (plus he was soooo cute), and I loved that too. But now that I've found this version, I've decided I like it best.


Truthfully, there's really only 2 things that make me sad about getting old. One is having to wear glasses. The other is not being able to dance any more.

Chair dancing counts.  :yowsa: But, honestly, I know exactly what you mean. Sigh.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

'Rolling in my Sweet Baby's Arms'


That's the stuff! BTW I know every word and can sing it, and  pick it on either guitar or banjo, or do a decent rhythm on mandolin.  CLASSIC!  happy77 :beer:

@Hoodat

Yes! Aside from a few audio glitches, this is a fabulous performance!

I'm so glad I enjoy both genres of music and enjoy dancing to both of them. I also love Latin music. Salsa, cumbia, etc. There are some forms of music that just beckon you to the dance floor. I'm all about that.

I really liked her too!  I guess we don't see her anymore is because she pissed off the wrong person....

She recorded her last songs in the 80's.  She had a truly awesome voice!

Thank you for letting  us know.

She was one of the early "true greats". What you heard was what she was putting out there,not a tape machine.
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

Many are on my playlist, so yeah, I'm an Old Fart and I enjoin the term.
Back when music was actually music, not remixes or some such nonsense they call "music" these days.
I miss composer/musicians stuff.

I think that calls for a Time-Out.  Must have violated several BR rules the least of which is insulting the TBR body of posters.

As much as I love disco, I'll take a hard pass on that one.



Here's some ol' fart big band swing music for those who like dancing. The real thing or a cover... take your pick. I'll take both.

Don't dance to this one, y'all. Just sit back and enjoy it. Just awesome. And definitely old fart-y.
