THE BAITALIOt
Merrie Melodies, Looney Tunes
By TED BORISKIE
Memories can be a very profit
able commodity, just ask anybody
who has backed an oldies record.
The first ones were called “Old
ies but Goodies” and used enough
hits from the fifties and early six
ties to fill about 20 albums. These
were noble enough collections but
the genre has degenerated into
an order - through - TV system
with a come-on like “Hi! (giggle)
I’m Mickey Dolenz! (giggle) Re
member me?” If only he would
let us forget.
Few of these records really
stand out as being different from
all the rest. The “Cruisin’’ series
released a few years ago are
ahead and shoulders above all the
rest with their blending of old
songs, old DJ’s spattering their
old fifties super-cool lingo and,
most important, old commercials
selling things like Studebakers. In
effect, the series not only pre
sented the songs popular in a cer
tain year, it captured the entire
atmosphere of the period.
George Lucas, who directed
the science fiction film, “THX
1138,” has a new movie out called
“American Graffiti.” This new
flick is about a bunch of guys
leaving town and their girls for
college in the summer of ’62. Lu
cas obviously lived the part be
cause he remembers how there
was never a second without music.
It came blaring from car radios,
juke boxes, record stores, sock
hops, proms, everywhere. Music
plays an important part in
“American Graffiti” and anyone
planning to see the movie may
profit from picking up the sound
track album. Anyone who likes to
label longhairs a “sub-culture”
should be interested in seeing
what a now dead sub-culture was
like when it was thriving.
The soundtrack features tunes
popular in or before 1962, songs
by Bill Haley and the Comets,
Buddy Holly, the Diamonds, the
Beach Boys, Chuck Berry, the
Platters, Fats Domino, the Five
Satins, the Big Bopper, Booker
T and the M.G.’s and Joey Dee.
Flash Cadillac and the Continen
tal Kids have a couple of num
bers on the discs as they play
Herbie and the Heartbeats, the
band that plays at the prom.
Anyone uninitiated to the fif
ties era may think that groups
like the Platters are a bit lame
but after seeing the movie I’m
sure it will be easy to see how
the group was one of the biggest
sellers of all time. Besides, Tony
Williams is one of the greatest
singers ever to pick up a micro
phone.
Like the “Cruisin’ ” series, this
too has a DJ, the howling, prowl
ing Wolf man Jack, probably the
most notable DJ to come out of
the era.
In 1965, while stationed in Ko
rea with a good hit of the U.S.
Army, Richard Nader would play
these old songs on the Armed
Forces Radio Network, He was
interested in the response he got
and decided that when he got
back to the states he would look
up these old rock ‘n’ roll artists
and find out what they were do
ing. None were having much
success so it was not so hard to
talk them into putting on a big
nostalgia concert and in 1969 the
first Rock ‘n’ Roll Revival show
was presented.
“Let the Good Times Roll” is
the name of a documentary film
of one of these concerts and the
soundtrack album presents us
with a different sort of oldies
album, one recorded live.
On the album are Chubby
Checker, Bill Haley and the Com
ets, the Five Satins, Fats Domi
no, Danny and the Juniors, Bo
Diddley, the Coasters, the Shi-
relles and Little Richard. I don’t
think this is a wholly successful
album in any way. The studio
versions of these songs fare
much better than any of these
live versions. It’s a long way
from the fifties and Nader ob
viously never read Thomas Wolfe
because he tried to make it back
home and this is a record of his
failure.
These are tired versions of
songs that make them sound
more dated than they really are.
I saw the Shirelles on television
a couple of hundred years ago
when “Soldier Boy” was their
present big hit. When the band
broke into the opening strains
the Shirelles snapped to a sloppy
attention and saluted the cam
era. Four years ago I saw them
in one of these oldies concerts
and at the beginning of “Soldier
Boy” they snapped to a sloppy
attention and saluted the and;
ence. This year on the “Mid
night Special” TV show wls
the Shirelles sang “Soldier
they snapped to a sloppy attet
tion and saluted the camert
Somewhere along the line tb
must have gotten tired of tlj
routine and it shows on record ■
However, to its credit, live tr i
cordings of fifties artists m 1
rare, so if we can’t find any gov, ?
live versions we will just han;
to settle for fair to averajiR
When

Both
and botl
versions.
Noted rock critic Lenny %
was too young in the fifties
be affected much by these artisti
His formative years were spei
in the Beatle era. For those tv
young to relate to the Shirelk
Kaye has something just for yo;
It’s called “Nuggets” and its’a;
album subtitled “Original Art;
facts from the First Psychedelil
Era, 1965-1968.” That just akj
says it all.
While the Beatles, the Stowj
and the Animals were big, then
were hundreds of minor group
that would record a couple n
hits, build a small following is;
then fade out. They had naras
like the Electric Prunes (f»f
tastic!), the Vagrants, the ThL'l
tee nth Floor Elevators, the At!
boy Dukes, the Magic Mml!
rooms, Nazz, Sagittarius, Uous{
and the Blues Magoos.
Some members of these gioupf
are still recording today althoup
with different bands with ib
names. Mountain’s Leslie Wes;
plays on this record with Hi
Vagrants, Sly Stone with
Mojo Men, Gary Usher wi
Sagittarius, Todd Rundgren wi
Nazz and A1 Kooper, BS&'
Steve Katz and Seatrain’s Ai
Kuhlberg with the Blues Projer.
I really enjoy listening to tl:
album although there are mayi
a couple of songs I would likes
have seen on the collection, noil
bly “96 Tears” by ? and
Mysterians and “Black is Bli
by Los Bravos, but then I gua
I can’t have everything.
