I’ve been listening to 2 good cd’s from my library called Bubblegum Classics, great songs from my youth.
One song I sure liked isn’t on there.
I need to know who it was by?
I suspect it was a one-hit wonder.
Chick-a-boom.
don’t ya jes love it
Damn, I thought this was a thread about porn flicks.
Pff.
Damn, I thought this was a thread about porn flicks.
Y’know, chicka-chicka-bow-bow.
Pff.
oops. Thats dumb, it posted when it said I had that 60 second no-posting window.
Oh well. Excuse my incompetence please.
Haj
ah, thank you.
Obviously not his real name.
Daddy Dewdrop, March 1971, #9 (Billboard). You’ll find it on several Rhino '70s CDs. Look under “Have A Nice Day”. I have it on the “Have A Nice Decade” box, but you can find it on a single CD.
I remember seeing this on the Groovie Ghoulies.
There were some good songs back then.
Like I Gotcha by Joe Tex, and Tommy Roe was quite good.
Richard Monda, according to this real-names site.
Great song, out about the same time as “Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep” by Mac and Katie Kissoon. Ah, memories …
Cool sites.Thanks!
Anyone used to like Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes,
Spill The Wine, Dizzy, In The Summertime(Mungo Jerry)?
We must be about the same age… these are the songs that were on the radio when I started listening to it, and I still like them very much. I bought the records when they came out, and missed out on whole genres while researching and buying other ones.
Like John Lennon said, (paraphrasing from memory) “I have become my parents, I have my music period and I’ll never leave it…”
If you liked “In The Summertime”, you should hear the B-side! It’s even better! “Mighty Man” could have been a hit, too.
Just one hint, if I may: please don’t listen to oldies radio. They only play the songs that are the least offensive to the largest number of sheep, I mean people, so unless you want to hear “Baby Love” three times a day, and 244 other of the most drippy oldies of the period, in an endless loop, buy the CDs with the songs you like on them, and play them when you feel like it!
And somebody tell those advertising guys that there was more to the 1970s than disco!
I was born in late 58 and started listening around 1965.
I never liked the Beatles and figured there was something wrong with me!

BTW, I now love disco thanks to www.discoinferno.cc
No. See, if you all are going to have a thread called "Chick-a-Boom, it must be really about the book “Chicka Chicka Boom Boom”
(Will there be enough room?)
What else could it be about? Don’t get me wrong, those songs are nice and all, but Ray Charles sang Chicka Chicka, so, clearly, that’s what you are talking about, right?
If this thread isn’t about Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, my 3-year-old is gonna be pissed…
never heard that one.
My best friend in 5th grade turned me on to this song. No mention of her in our 25th high school reunion booklet. I wonder where she is now. Chick-a-boom Chick-a boom boom boom.
