Leroy Van Dyke The Auctioneer Song 1962 HD

[@ArnoldHenderson44th]

This song was played at my grandads funeral, he ran auctions for over 25+ years. We were all laughing when it came on.

[@Stanley-z4d]

I grew up enjoying this song at our hometown street dance in Dumont Minnesota

I had a horrendous stutter when i was a kid and Dad had an idea. He bet me I couldn't learn and sing this song...... discovered I could sing and not stutter! All these years later i still love this song.

[@stewarta5993]

you have a great father and he has a great son.

[@taphhedrof1045]

Do you still have a Stutter

[@tamiaugustson2562]

Challenge accepted!!! It's a fact that the part of the brain that controls speech and singing are in different areas. Mel TIllis was very famous singer who had a horrible stutter. He was in a film called Cannonball Run and the outtakes of him trying to say his lines were hilarious. Probably wouldn't have been able to make that film today... Cheers to your dad for the challenge and to you for running with it!

[@taphhedrof1045]

Most people with a stutter are breathing incorrectly and are hyperventilating. Instead of breathing 10 breaths per minute they are breathing approximately 30 breaths per minute. This is a problem of Psychology. They are breathing out too much CO2 and are getting the Suppressed Bohr Effect, discovered in 1902 by Dr C Bohr MD. Professor of Psychology. All they have to do is retrain their breathing to breath appropriately 10 breaths per minute.

[@mfisher1952]

Carly Simon along with Mel Tillis were two stutters who sang. Carly Simon got her start when her mother suggested she try singing - and she discovered she didn't stutter then.

[@lamoon1525]

When I was a child about six this came out and my uncle was enamored of it. He set to imitating it and was he was finished, said, I believe I have my new employment. He became an auctioneer and was well thought of in the community. He was sure fun to listen to.

[@Johnnycdrums]

Leroy had the best piece of advice I ever heard while speaking to a group of aspiring autioneers. "Get so good you can't be ignored." He had a lot of other good advice too, obviously.

[@cwvoss]

My dad was an auctioneer for over 50 years. He passed today and I had to listen to this in honor of him.

My Dad had been an auctioneer for almost 20 years when I was born, so I literally grew up *IN* the business. When he opened his big auction house in SE Ohio the year before this video was filmed, one of the draws was having the oldest and youngest auctioneers in Ohio that first night. His partner, George, who was 85, and me at the tender age of 5. Dad's been gone for almost 40 years now but thanks to this song, I can always hear him calling for bids again.

[@TheRealFlaming]

Howdy, it's a really good Ole song. One of the songs that keeps me knowing my Old father who served in combat, and was also a farmer on our farm. He died when I was young. I remember him and his voice from this song.

[@RustyCarnahan]

That's so interesting. I'm willing to bet your dad knew my late Paw Paw Jim Carnahan, and or his partner Dan Smith also from southeast Ohio.

[@kendayton]

@@RustyCarnahan Both those names sound really familiar. What city were they located in? I grew up in Marietta.

[@RustyCarnahan]

@@kendayton Both Dan and Paw Paw's home farms were located in Racine. Paw Paw was Ohio State Champion Square dance caller in 1952, which is the year he and Dan graduated High School

[@kendayton]

@@RustyCarnahan ~ Okay...down near Pomeroy which makes you an "Ohio River Rat" too. They were near the same age as my oldest (now late) brother who graduated in 1954. My Dad was born in 1910, so he was older but I'm sure he knew almost all the auctioneers in that corner of Ohio since he opened the very first auction house in SE Ohio in 1948 and called his last auction in 1982 shortly before he died. He was such an "old-timer" that he went to auction school with Dick Kiko who owned Kiko Auctions in Canton for a thousand years!

[@1notgilty]

Mr. Van Dyke gave up a promising future as a fast talking, double-talking political and instead pursued a successful career as a musician. He obviously made the right choice.

I have to admit, that was a tough song to sing. My dad was a musician from age 14 until he died at age 62 and that is one song I never heard him do. He also never played the song Piano Man ( he played the key boards) and one year for my daughters piano recital she had bought the music and learned it. My dad always said the left hand was very hard to play. My daughter personally invited my dad and mom to her piano recital. They actually showed up. She played piano man on the grand piano and when she was done my dad stood up and and started a standing ovation. Them my daughter played the song " music box dancer" for her younger brother who still loves that song, and again, my dad started a standing ovation. After the piano recital my dad talked to my daughter's piano teacher and him play the grand piano. My dad was thrilled. My daughter also plays the drums and before he died, he got to hear her play with the rock band she is part of and he was again impressed.❤ What great memories 😊

[@joehill8014]

I remember going to the OKC stockyards in the 1970s. They had three full time auctioneers and when the cattle were coming in from the Oklahoma and Texas Panhandles, feeder cattle receipts could run 20,000 head per day with the auction running 24 hours a day on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Now that was an auction.

The one I remember the most is 'Rubber Baby Bumper'. God, I love this song! It is on my mp3 player, and I listen to it regularly here on youtube, as well. Dad cannot do his auction cries anymore due to cognitive issues. I miss that so much.

BUT, as a bribe, he gave me his copy of this song on a 45 record. I still have it someplace, although like you, just about played the grooves off it. Yes, true talent, and an amazing song.
