Born and raised in eastern Nebraska. Graduated from Millard High in 1966. I love the oldies and wish they were more readily available. My hope with this channel is to create an archive to educate ourselves and younger people in the music and culture of our times.
My channel is not R rated. Not even PG-13. I remove all comments that contain foul language or are hateful and if repeated I block the member. If you aren't sure what is OK just think broadcast TV in the 1950s and 60s - zero tolerance.

The Paris Sisters - What Am I To Do
The Paris Sisters bridged the gap separating the traditional vocal pop of the post-World War II era from the equally generation-defining girl group sound that emerged in the wake of rock & roll. By the 1961 release of their Phil Spector-produced breakthrough "I Love How You Love Me," the siblings were already longtime veterans of the music business. Albeth (the oldest), Sherrell (the middle child), and Priscilla Paris (the baby) were born and raised in San Francisco. Their mother, Faye, was the quintessential stage parent, a former opera singer who continued her career vicariously through her children. The Paris Sisters got their start singing and dancing at local Air Force showcases, and circa 1953 they made their recorded debut with a pair of singles for the tiny Cavalier label: "The Bully, Bully Man" (a tie-in with local radio personality Red Blanchard) and the seasonal effort "Christmas in My Home Town." In 1954, their mother engineered a backstage visit during an Andrews Sisters performance at the Warfield Theater, and the trio was so impressed by the Paris siblings' uncanny imitations of their hits that they were invited on-stage for encore performances of the canteen classics "Rum and Coca Cola" and "Beer Barrel Polka." An MCA Records executive in the audience signed the Paris Sisters to the label's Decca imprint immediately thereafter, and the single "Ooh La La" appeared by year's end.
Despite the snowballing popularity of rock & roll, the Paris Sisters' early Decca efforts adhered to the increasingly old-fashioned vocal harmony approach popularized by the Andrews Sisters and the McGuire Sisters. As a result, their singles earned little notice. Although their records fared poorly, the Paris Sisters toured relentlessly, appearing at county fairs, USO showcases, and even in Las Vegas, casino performances made possible with the aid of falsified birth certificates, makeup, and padded bras. After their seventh Decca single, 1956's "Daughter, Daughter," the label terminated the Paris Sisters' contract, and the siblings signed with Imperial to release 1957's "Old Enough to Cry," quickly followed by "My Original Love." Imperial opted to cut its losses then and there, and the Paris girls did not make another record for four years. When they finally resurfaced on Lester Sill's fledgling Gregmark label in 1961, the impresario insisted on a top-to-bottom overhaul of their approach, tapping up-and-coming producer Phil Spector to shepherd the transformation. Spector relegated Albeth and Sherrell to the background, and while he turned the spotlight on Priscilla, he insisted she dial back her powerful voice to a dusky whisper.
While the Paris Sisters' Gregmark debut, "Be My Boy," earned little notice, the follow-up, "I Love How You Love Me," cracked the U.S. Top Five, galvanized by Priscilla's intimate lead turn and Spector's atypically restrained production. After the 1962 singles "He Knows I Love Him Too Much" and "What Am I to Do" also generated positive response at radio and retail, Spector began work on a Paris Sisters LP, but as production costs began to skyrocket, Sill attempted to exert control of the project. Their skirmish ended disastrously when, according to Sill, one of his assistants accidentally discarded the master tapes, although rumors persist of a far more nefarious outcome. Either way the Paris Sisters suffered the most damage, and while their relationship with Sill disintegrated under the threat of litigation, the siblings did not make another record until 1964, signing with MGM to cut a cover of the Bobby Darin smash "Dream Lover" overseen by Spector's erstwhile arranger Jack Nitzsche. After a pair of singles for Mercury, "When I Fall in Love" and "Always Waitin'," they signed to Reprise, which paired them with Nitzsche and production partner Jimmy Bowen -- though a commercial failure, the Paris Sisters' 1967 Reprise LP Everything Under the Sun!!! remains an unsung classic of the waning girl group era, featuring several original songs written by Priscilla herself.
Not surprisingly, Priscilla released her debut solo single, "He Noticed Me," on the York label shortly after Everything Under the Sun!!! belly-flopped. The solo LP Priscilla Sings Herself soon followed, and she closed out 1967 with Priscilla Sings Billy, a tribute to jazz immortal Billie Holiday. The Paris Sisters reunited the following year to release "Stark Naked Clown" on the GNP Crescendo imprint. "Golden Days," a 1968 one-off for Capitol, proved to be the siblings' swan song. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi

❤❤❤❤❤ I love Patsy Cline
I fell in love with the Paris Sisters in the 50s with I Love How You Love Me! I then was in a trio and was asked to sing! They influenced me along with The McGuire Sisters!
Cool
Still love this song,all these years later..thanks Pat x
greetz from Bates Motel
Several years ago, I came across a wedding rehearsal in a public park. They were using this song (sans lyrics)as the wedding march. It was all I could do to stop myself from interrupting and asking them if they were jinxing their marriage - had anyone listened to the words?
Sweet, innocent America
Such a catchy pop song ❤❤❤
Susan dey ❤❤
Just beautiful. What a loss to the world. Listening in August 2024.
super Hit The Ohio Express año 1968
If they wanted to make a movie about her, Kelly Clarkson wouldn't need much makeup.
I guess you mean a new movie?? Jessica Lange did use a bit too much I guess lol.
My fave song of theirs...❤
get it overr
I get the same feeling I get when I watch Lefty- as if she's looking right at me.
Nem sonhava em nascer, mas é uma das minhas favoritas. Grande artista! Quanta saudade!!

I always read that Lori had no actual music talent (neither do I). She was just an actress. Question: they seem to zoom in on her piano playing quite a bit. Her playing looks realistic to me.
Exquisitooo ! ❤️
my old dance!
I LOVE THIS as we all do

Let's Fu*king Gooo Deadpool & Wolverine ♥️💛
Loved David Cassidy. He had a great voice! So adorable 🥰
Deadpool & Wolverine!
Deadpool & Wolverine
Everyone, dont let David's memories and voice ever be forgotten. Here today and always
This person butchered the video. The pitch on David's vocals is way to high! It sounds horrible!
You must have of read my mind
Those kids are dancing on a show called "Teen Time" from a local station in Weirton, West Virginia.
I always want to remember this...a happy part of my life.
David Cassidy is dead.
All I cared about was Shirley and her tambourine.... great wrist action
A legend we lost too soon😢
Still listening 🎉
Here's another fun fact. In the 1960's Johnny O'Keefe acquired The Australian rights to Where The Action Is and simply called it Action. In 1964 Olivia Newton-John entered a Talent Contest that he sponsored and she won.
מתה על השיר הזה
Mein Jugend das ist lange her.
Pretty amazing that it was just David Cassidy and Shirley Jones no one else in the band had any musical talent whatsoever.
This is the year I started to learn to play the Guitar 1965-6
Does this require electronics?
Where's FRANK OURSLER
Love this song ❤❤❤
A great gold nugget from that era of music.
I always loved this song but although i cherished it, it was super sad in my eyes and in my heart and i didnt know why??? Fast forward.... I honestly didnt hear this song in thirty something years but recently came across it and immediately after prior years of councelling realized it was because my father never had time for me and then died when i was a teenager without anything bring resolved. The sadness came from this prior wishful subconscious or buried loss of connecting with him. I had never put it together until it recently played.. it hit me like a ton of bricks now that I healed from it all. Amazing complex minds that we have!!!!
I remember I went to the cinema with the movie and the music ...oh oh oh Bernardine in Vietnam when I was 5 or 6 years old
