Something about that phrase "put my camel to bed, be my belly dancer and I'll be your shiek..." still gets 'em every time.

Tough to make out and play them at the same time, but it can be done. |

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | The year was 1966. I was sitting in my girlfriend's living room during dinner time with all my gear hooked up. She was eating dinner with her parents and siblings. I wanted to impress them all with how well (I thought) I could play some nice dinner music, so I cranked up the amp and proceeded to honk out "My Baby Does the Hanky Panky" by Tommy James and the Shondells. Song selection was questionable at best, even for a 15 year old, but the timing couldn't have been worse. |

this song came out a year after i got out of high school. i had just joined the army reserve and was flying to fort ord, california for basic training. i was missing my sweetheart badly and this song was on the airplane's playlist. her photo was in my lap and a triple ginger lei she had given me at honolulu airport was around my neck. this song came on and there was no way i could fight back the flood of tears! |

i enjoy just about any song nora sings. my wife, on the other hand, does not like nora's vocals at all. i don't get it... :confused:
this was a clever sesame street edition with nora singing this song, "i don't know why Y didn't come"
