It's Up To You

I did this recording for my dad as an early birthday present.  He used to have me play this song for visitors back in the 70's when I still was in high school.  You may recognize it.

An interesting version of a cool song as performed by Samson and the Delilahs.  Hot backup singers.  Helium.  Kazoos.  Awesome harmonica.  What else does a song need, really?

Little Bit Of Nothing

We recorded a few covers way back, originally intended to just go out to our fan club as bonuses. Then time passed. The Ray Paul Klimek decided to rerelease "Where-Ever-Land" with bonus cuts.....but this wasn't on it....then Airmail records rereleased it in Japan. Bingo!

Where-Ever-Land

Anyway You Want It

In Breaking Walls Episode 103 we visit the town of Wistful Vista to spend a weekend at Walt’s Malt Shop with Fibber McGee and Molly. While between 1938 and 1950, Jim and Marian Jordan’s comedy never finished lower than fifth in national radio ratings, in this episode, we’ll focus on the period after, when the show became a closed production and aired for fifteen minutes, five days per week.
