The Sweet Voice Of

Eddie Holman...do you remember "Hey There Lonely Girl"...pretty much a 70's classic that had a lot of people singing very high soon after...he was a lead singer for some other groups and then went his solo way...had some other hittish songs, but none like his famous one...he's still a singing and is a Baptist Minister, to boot....BUT...did you know the song was really, "Hey There Lonely Boy" and he changed it?  Yup, so true...it was originally put out by this little group with a humongous smash "Our Day Will Come"...Ruby and the Romantics...in fact, I had this album and I think Snook stole it from me...I digress...disc it up if you can find it...and tell me if it's not one of the top 100 of all time...

Voices of the Everly Brothers...in their prime went in to the army and put the duo's hits on hold...never really recovered...BUT...had a boat load of big ones prior...the best?  "All I Have To Do Is Dream"...top ten ever...but, had some others, "Cathy's Clown", "Walk Right Back", lead the pack...Cris and I saw them perform in Anaheim when he was going to Pomona College, back in "02 or so...the harmony was still there and it was a surprise of nice dimensions...seems like a good group to come to Humphrey's...

OK, I know these are so way back, most of you have no clue to what I am writing about...but let's be clear...the melodies were dynamite and are worth you finding them on itunes...and it'll only cost you $1.29 a song...you'll be happy you did...

The news around here centers on the building of a new Charger's stadium....the hot rumor is that LA is going to build one...and then they will come...the Bolts...really?  In this day and age...it seems like a huge gamble...well, enter the SD Mayor, Jerry Sanders...who's doing everything he can to keep 'em....he's going on a 3 city tour of the latest built NFL teams...it's in the plans to erect the structure here in downtown...around 14th or so...I think...it'll happen and this city continues to grow...
