Funny how songs fit life. On April 1st 1975 I was at Gate#1, Camp Hialeah, S. Korea waiting for my lovely Kim to arrive for our 1st official (escorted) date. I was waiting and waiting. I was slowly twisting in the wind. Nervous. From the gate shack I thought I could hear AFKN-Radio (Armed Forces Korean Network) playing this song...Slow Twistin'... done by Chubby Checker and Dee Dee Sharp. So get up from the chair...stretch it on out...get with the one you love, because...It's Friday! Let's dance!
*If ya got a good dance tune or song in your haid (head) be sure to leave/link it in comments so we can drop by your place. Coming soon: Part#18 of "Love American VS Korean Style". Have a great weekend! JG

Back when I was a poor, no money Active Duty Navy Sailor, this kept me thinking of my future Wife and the fun we would soon have, and we will be having this played at the upcoming 20th anniversary. I am glad someone else is having the "Happy Wife; Happy Life!"
Keep On Rockin' Fearress reader!
It's Saturday, but I'm still gonna dance! LOL!
Locomotion
Thousand Dances
I, apparently, am traveling through the week one day behind...
I can't dance yet, but I danced in my head!!!!
I have a head filled with music to which no one dances. That's okay. I just bop along.
