CAN-CAN OR DO THE DO?
ON this date in 1858 - The Can-Can was performed for the first time in Paris...
Right you are, Bun and Purple were front and center in the audience.
Actually, the name was not known but when the Boys saw the lasses w/ those high-kickin' legs continue to shoot up to the sky, they turned to each other and said "She CAN-CAN"...
The Name just kinda stuck after that...
Bun would later ask "Do she do the do?"
Later...SHE DO.
And you know why, why you and I...
ON this date in 1958 - Buddy Holly recorded his last studio session.
Holly and the Crickets recorded "True Love Ways," "Moondreams," "It Doesn't Matter Anymore," and "Raining in my Heart."
Co-Producers Bun Man and Mr. Purple were so proud of their work in this session and signed on for more w/ Holly & the Crickets.
It was short-lived as this artist would die early in '59.
Bun said Buddy was the single most influential force in early rock & roll.
ON this date in 1918 - Margaret Owen set a typing speed record of 170 words per minute on a manual typewriter.
When Bun Man heard this, he immediately became infatuated w/ Margaret (Fast Finger Peggy as he called her).
Mr. Purple and I could never figure it out as Bun had never even seen Margaret or knew whether she was taller than him or not.
