Does anyone remember this 1965 song?
A forgotten '45 by Little Anthony and the Imperials,called "Take Me Back?(#16)?It goes "Take me back..I'm beggin' please...take me back I'm on my knees.For you to hold me,hurt me,scold me,darling take me back..(don't know the rest of the lyrics,except)..I promise never to be jealous anymore,Take me back,I'm beggin' please,take me back,I'm on my knees.For you to hold me,hurt me,scold me....Darling(lovingly)take me baaaaack."

Not sure...I think I'd have to hear it to see if I've heard it before. The lyrics don't look familiar, but I used to listen to 50s and 60s oldies stations all the time (starting about the time disco got really big... I refused to have anything to do with disco). So chances are, I've heard it, I'm just not sure how it sounds. |

Just wait for MickeyMac to post here, because he knows all about obscure music. If anyone knows the answer to this question, it's him.

Hi Tweety--If you didnt like the 4-5 year old Disco fun--I wonder what you think of the (still going) 20 year old rap-hip hop fad?

lol, I do remember the "Disco Duck" song... that was funny, I remember hearing it on the radio.
In music, I've always been partial to good singing...that's the first thing I look for in a song. If the person/group can't sing (a subjective judgment, I admit), that pretty much kills a song for me. I like a good melody (again, subjective judgment) ... I've heard a lot of songs that had a "catchy tune" according to some, that I thought sounded like crap lol. And, I appreciate a good musical accompaniment. I like good musicians. When it comes to lyrics, I don't expect much when it comes to rock, or especially rock n roll. Disco, to me, was just an endless loop of sound that went on and on and on... I remember "MAD" magazine one time had an "inside look" inside a disco night club. It was a one-panel cartoon that showed the entire interior of the club, and showed the various conversations people were having around the room. At the DJ's station, the DJ was telling the manager "I'm not sure how good I'll be at this, I still don't know how to mix records".... and the manager says "Hey, no problem, just put on this new Donna Summer album. It's EIGHT HOURS LONG". I'm thinking "yup, that pretty much sums it up, right there". Rap really doesn't have anything that I like in music. There's no singing. They don't play any instruments. Occasionally, someone will do some clever stuff with lyrics, but even if they do, I've never said "wow, I gotta listen to that again!". When rap first starting getting really big on the "mainstream" radio stations, I, of course, thought it was just a fad. I figured "sooner or later, people will realize that there's nothing going on there, musically". As it turned out, of course, I greatly over-estimated a vast portion of the American people on that one, just as I would a few years later when it came to "reality shows". |

And how about this one by Dobie Gray?"The In Crowd"-(lyrics "I'm in with the in crowd.I go where the latest dance-When you're in with the in crowd,it's easy to find romance."Other lyrics:"Other guys imitate us,but the original is still the greatest/We got our own way of walkin'/We've got our own way of talkin',yeah./I don't care where you've been,you ain't been nowhere till you've been in,with the in crowd"P.S:Ramsey Lewis Trio also did an Instrumental version of "The In Crowd".Both were top 20 hits.

This is a hit. I would hardly call this obscure, or forgotten Try "If You Really Want Me To I'll Go" by The Ron-Dels from 1965. There is a forgotten song. |

Dobie Gray had a bigger hit in "Drift Away' Bryan Ferry does a cool version of The In Crowd on his 1974 album Another Time, Another Place. A great album of covers. |
