Sunday after hours

*
There is only one reason I'd ever post such a thing to this blog. See if you can guess what it is.



A Walk In The Black Forest, Horst Jankowski (1965, Mercury Records [catalog information unavailable]), via YouTube, embedded for noncommercial critical discussion and educational purposes.

Editor's note: some wags might consider this tune 1965's answer to Kyu Sakamoto's 1963 hit, "Sukiyaki," and also to the eternal question "Who won World War II, you so smart?"

  2. well, thank you for that. I thought I was waking up in the fog on the Illinois river this morning. Up next-- King of the Road by Roger Miller

  3. The rather impressive sound quality?

    Or it could be you've decided to form a lounge act and take it on the road. After all, the Armada Room has never topped "Murph and the Magictones"!

  4. Marginalia: No. I believe you're thinking of "Don't Sleep In The Subway."

    BO: maybe Marginalia is right; I believe you've fetished your weekend vacation memories beyond all recognition.

    Zed: It is a decent upload, but that's not why. See Item 2 above. I'll bet Horst Jankowski didn't really perish of lung cancer; I'll bet he was sick to death of playing that song for over three decades in a row.
