Ohio State Buckeye here. The girl who inspired the song, "Hang on Sloopy" was a woman namded Dorothy Sloop, a jazz singer from Steubenville, Ohio, and a student at Ohio University. The "Dancing Sloopy Girl" in the photo was Lisa Leonard Dalton who was a dancer from California and was filmed for the song in 1975 by Rick Derrigner.

My first concert from a nationwide act was KC and The Sunshine Band at the old Legend City. Playboy Mansion music 😅

These are such a great way to take a little trip back in time. These songs remind me of riding in the back of my parent’s station wagon. Keep making these and can’t wait to see which year comes next!!

In 1965, The Beatles released rubber sole also in 1965. The Beatles number one hit Ticket to Ride. Was riding the charts? Did you know

So funny. Help & ticket to ride split the vote. Hymie had final say on this one...and help was a slam dunk for him. No wrong answers tho.

The Belfast Gypsies. Why do so many people and bands gravitate to the name gypsy. Have any of these people actually hung out with gypsies? And come away with their wallets?
