Great show Rick... thank you for allowing us to tell our story and give others the inspiration they need.

LOTS of great one-hit music!!

Extremely well done Mike!! You are a fountain of information about the Twin Cities and I appreciate you sharing this with us. Please do more of these types podcasts when you can. Very enjoyable! Corky

Great podcast, Pops! It is great to see you healthy!

Give me the "Crickets" especially Buddy Holly anytime. And I'm from liverpool. You Americans should celebrate the life and music of the greatest (arguaby), innovator of popular music, bar none more often❤. ..Ringo not in the same class as Jerry Allison, Buddy's drummer. Ask Mick Fleetwood

Loved this - so many memories of how things were back when we were kids! Thanks Rick and Kathy!

I don’t know if it was summer, but I remember you and Randy playing records in your basement. As a little kid, I thought it was so cool to be there

Great Podcast!! Wonderful stories Randy and Tere!!! Keep James and his music alive!

This was fun to listen to. Now I’m going to check out Weezer, POCO and Buffalo Springfield. Thanks for the memories 😊 ❤

What a great journey down musical types!!! Great job, Rick & Brian. Also loved Poco. Buffalo Springfield was scheduled to be on the Tonight Show & didn't show. Carson said they would never be invited back. Drugs, I bet!!!

Find some new jokes for next year :-)

I feel like you could do a whole episode just talking about the vibe of this one hit wonder. Strawberry Alarm Clock kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqPaYpJ8g8msY7sfeature=shared

Check out the show notes below after you check out this episode, for KZbin links to the One Hit Wonders we mentioned. Thanks for watching and please like, share and subscribe! Thanks, from The Boomer Buddies!

It’s amazing how many of these I remember! Lots of fun! Thanks Rick and Quincy

Loved the memories!!! Thanks,.guys. Keep up the good work!

Hi Auntie Muggs, Rick and Tere - loved this - so many great memories of hanging out with my Reed cousins. ❤. Looking forward to another podcast with the 3 of you!

Agree on being retired & driving & cart etiquette. Thanks for showing a terrific picture of The Beatles!!!

Thanks Rick. This was fun. I remember at Horstmans (I always call it Ruth’s), we would pool our money and go to the store. Underneath the cash register she had the boxes of little candies that you could pick out 3 for a nickel or a few cents. Ruth had the patience of a saint as we picked our selections. 😂. My favorite was the Slow Poke. A bit later… the Black Cow. The same type of toffee sucker as the Slow Poke but it had a milk chocolate covering. Thanks for the think back. I had to laugh at the candy necklace

Another engaging and enjoyable episode, Rick! A few candies on my list include Mild Duds, Whoppers, Lemon Drops, Cherry Drops, Jawbreakers, Bit-o-Honey, Chicklets, Gold Nugget bubble gum, Chuckles, Slo Poke, Black Cow, Bonomo Turkish Taffey (vanilla was the best - and another one you freeze before eating), Tootsie Rolls, Tootsie Pops, and Necco wafers. And I'm sure there are many many more!!

We also loved Reese’s peanut butter cups, Bub’s Daddy’s, Snickers and Candy cigarettes.

When I was a tiny tot, I watched "Perry Mason," and enjoyed it a lot--although I don't think I was old enough to understand the legal goings-on portrayed in the show. Strangely, the sharpest memory I have connected with the series was the Public Service Announcement that William Talman appeared in posthumously in which he warned people not to smoke!

One more thing....Gertie was a Bette Davis body double. She was not only perfect for that but also a great Gertie!

I didn't watch Perry Mason until about five years ago. Why do I love this show? Well... besides the theme song, Park Avenue Beat, I loved the exceptional crafting of the story, the script, the cast, the fashion, the cars, etc...Perry Mason had everything. Too bad the producers and studios don't get anything right today. I love seeing "Lt. Tragg" in roles on major movies.

One of my favorite shows..............

Thanks for sharing your HEART and challenging us to be our best selves. . . especially when it comes to taking care of our aging parents and friends! Love you, brother!

15:47 I really enjoyed listening to this. You are loved as well.

Great show Rick. Hits close to home :-(

I loved the cross overs of these 3 shows.

Max Baer Jr. I believe his dad was a boxer. All of these shows were my favorites, along with Gilligan's Island.

"The Man From U.N.C.L.E." (especially during it's first two seasons) was the best of the secret agent adventure shows that were so prolific during the 60's. Coolest props (the pen communicator, the U.N.C.L.E. special, the THRUSH cycloptic scope rifle, transparent gas grenades, U.N.C.L.E. HQ with it's hidden entrance and all the cool defense systems within), the two leads had the best chemistry of all the tv spy duos, Leo G. Carroll was just irreplaceable, Jerry Goldsmith and Morton Steven's brilliant music, memorable guest stars like William Shatner, Barbara Feldon, Vincent Price, Ricardo Montalban and Kurt Russell, and it had the right balance of intrigue and humour (before the network foolishly made them go campy in season 3). It was just an excellent action series that (like 'Star Trek") still manages to be entertaining even after all these years.

All time favorite movie, "Field of Dreams".

David McCallum was not happy about the reference to Illya Kuryakin.

I loved all the Police Shows, Adam 12 a favorite in the 1960's. So many, Police Story, Mod Squad. Dragnet, Police Women, the list goes on. My Uncle worked personnel dept. of a major police agency. Before all these cop shows recruitment for new officers was hard with constant advertising to find applicants. By the late 1960's police agencies were inundated with people looking to join.

I liked all those shows too. Times were changing! I became obsessed for a short time with Honey West in the mid-sixties. Anne Francis played the part of a clever, strong, and somewhat independent investigator, and she was blonde. But she still had a guy that was always nearby to rescue her when needed. I liked it when she dressed in black for sneaking around at night. (I think she wore black, but then the show was in black and white.)

Fantastic Show Rick and Tere! Love The Owl!

Great podcast with Art, Rick. Although I never followed the local music scene in the Twin Cities, I found Art's story very interesting . Thanks for sharing\, and God bless Art for his service.

Perfect rendition of Randy too.

Great story on the speakers Newt.

I encourage you all to consider ordering the limited edition print of "James Walsh: Then & Now" through Tere Walsh. Please order at: [email protected]. Many Thanks!

Great show Rick and Newt

Love this broadcast. Thanks for mentioning the art and your tribute to James.

Thankyou for this❤❤. I'm a Buddy Holly fanatic, and really appreçiate things like this!...where can i buy those çd's Quincy was on about in this video please.?❤

Waylon Jennings gave his seat to the Big Bopper. Dion is a liar.

Elvis to a lesser degree? That’s one of the craziest things I’ve ever heard.

Loving your podcasts Rick!

Love Ed... Perfect is our song :)

What about the bass player Waylon Jennings. Buddy's good friend, he had come to New York City where Buddy Holly was living with his wife Maria, to become the bass player on the tour. Buddy Waylon sat and talked about why he was not going to take the plane, it was due to J.P. having the flu and being very sick, so during the talk, Buddy said so, get back on the bus and freeze, and Waylon said, I hope your ol plane crashes.

Rick looks like Jerry Dwyer

Yes, I realized after I listened to the podcast that I had misspoke. Dion was only saying that the $36 for the flight would have been out of his price range . The decision about who would fill the two other seats came down to Buddy’s bandmates, Tommy Allsup and Waylon Jennings , and The Big Bopper and Ritchie Valens.

Ive been out to the crash site. Sprinkled some of my dads ashes out there. He was a huge Holly fan . He was 15-16 back in 59
