Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Retrospectively funny comment on that show by Jeezy about Ken Nordine, whom FXO played: "Holy Crap! And he's still alive! But he's 98..." IIRC Ken Nordine passed not long after that, and now so has FXO.

I was trying recently to remember the better places to buy records in Boston -- the places we'd stop at periodically to browse -- back in the day of the music in this set. The Coop, early Strawberries...what were the others? Any current or former Boston area people recall the main and better sellers? This would be before Newbury Comics.

Skippy White's was a Mass. Ave landmark, but I never was in there until I got a gift certificate many after my younger music shopping days, which were mostly in mid 70s.

No, she won an Oscar and he's a Congressman.

SIEGEL: Steve Karmen informally crowned himself the king of jingles. Although, there are other pretenders to that throne. He was a childhood pal of singer Bobby Darin. In the 1950s, he played with Darin in a band. Both attended The Bronx High School of Science. Karmen played saxophone and guitar. And then he was lured into the jingle business. And he had some very big clients.
KARMEN: The advertising agency in St. Louis that represented Budweiser had a line. When you say Budweiser, you've said it all. And here's $1,500. And come back with a song.
SIEGEL: Which he did - heavy on the drums.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
VALERIE SIMPSON: (Singing) When you say Bud, you've said a lot of things nobody else can say. When you say Bud, you've gone as far as you can go to get to the very best. When you say Bud, you've said the word that means you like to do it all.
KARMEN: The lead singer is Valerie Simpson of Ashford & Simpson.
SIEGEL: Really?
KARMEN: Valerie wrote "Ain't No Mountain High Enough," "Let's Go Get Stoned," "Solid As A Rock." I mean, Valerie is a most prolific songwriter. But this was - you know, this is how she made a living before she did that.
SIEGEL: And all the music and the whole lyric?
KARMEN: Everything. I wrote the entire lyric. I did the orchestration. I'm, you know, a composer. I do my own productions, my own orchestrations. And that went on the air. And it ran for eight years with that lyric. (Singing) When you say Budweiser, you've said it all. And then the agency rewrote the lyric. (Singing) For all you do, this Bud's for you. And that has been on the air, basically, ever since in various different forms.
SIEGEL: How do you feel about that? I mean, this is your creation. This is your song. It's also a beer commercial. Do you feel as protective of it as if it were an aria in an opera that you did?
KARMEN: I do. I do. You know, the difference between a symphony and a jingle is symphony writers use more paper.
Granny Spicy Tuna:
Even if the tunes sound similar, Karmen concurs that the band didn't rip him off. "If it was close enough, we would have sued," he said in a phone interview. That's not a bluff. In 1970, he sued the writers of "When You Say Love," a similar-sounding Sonny and Cher single, and won the right to future royalties.

Bugging me that I can't recall the few other familiar joints. I remember when Strawberries was the newcomer. I was gone years before Tower showed up.
