You guys ignore lyrics, but the lyrics of this one send chills up my
spine as "Ike" (probably not really him) threatens Tina with bodily harm.
Now *there* was a misogynist.
A fave record of Roger's and I'm pretty sure he would know the nature
of the lyrics of this particular song. In *this* instance, I don't
accept your "You guys ignore lyrics" defense.
I feel that it's very likely that Tina *is* singing with Ike because
of the way she often calls out in a spontaneous way "I-kee". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VPfbimcKOA

I don't like it much though. It never gets anywhere.
7. IT’S EASY CHILD – LULU (sic) REED & FREDDY KING
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSYCvSWyCc4

Excellent? On what planet?
Never heard of either version before. I don't
think the Moody Blues made it "famous," they just recorded it. When I searched for it on Youtube by the Moody Blues it did not come up on its
own as I started to type the title, as famous songs do. I had to type
the full thing.
8. NO-ONE CAN MAKE MY SUNSHINE SMILE – THE EVERLY BROTHERS
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAaVD7ctTV4
Methinks USA picked wrong “A” side on this release—a #9 hit in UK where
it was the topside
Did not know it. I don't think it's anything special, but I am gonna
download it and keep an MP3. But not from the video you posted where you
see the 45. There's a better sounding one to get it from.
19. T.C.B. (TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS) – DON GARDNER & DEE DEE FORD
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwnpvkHRoK8
Did not have it. As much as I love their first hit, this one is weak
IMO.
20. LOE & JOE – THAT’S HOW I AM WITHOUT YOU
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnPsP7jjg4k
Did not know it, it's good. I'm not that strong on odd items from the
early 60s because I don't like them all that much. Nice touch with the Spinners. I downloaded it from a better sounding video than the one you
used with the noisy 45.
23. BARBARA ANN – JAN & DEAN
Was not aware of this one. It's not necessary for me to have it. I don't
see any release on this in 1962, is it unissued?

No it's on their "Golden Hits" Liberty LP from 1962

Years ago I ranked the years based on the ratings I had given for songs
from each year. These were my 20 favorite years for music:
RANK - YEAR - RATING
1 ---- 1956 - 1283.5
2 ---- 1955 - 1204.0
3 ---- 1957 - 1027.5
4 ---- 1954 - 1004.5
5 ---- 1958 -- 758.5
6 ---- 1953 -- 749.5
7 ---- 1965 -- 667.5
8 ---- 1964 -- 589.0
9 ---- 1952 -- 529.0
10 --- 1966 -- 477.5
11 --- 1960 -- 468.0
12 --- 1967 -- 464.0
13 --- 1959 -- 462.5
14 --- 1961 -- 433.0
15 --- 1969 -- 412.0
16 --- 1963 -- 408.0
17 --- 1951 -- 387.0
18 --- 1968 -- 365.5
19 --- 1962 -- 342.0
20 --- 1970 -- 318.0
There would be probably be some small changes if I did this again now as
I have added loads of things to my database since I did this. Especially
50s things from the Cash Box reviews. like #21 was 1950 at 259.5, but
that likely has pulled ahead of 1970 by now.

She calls him Ike and Ikie in several songs where another guy is doing
the singing.

Could not disagree more. It's one of my favorites by them

I think you have to come to terms with this sound thing. Again this must
have been the best sound I could find. Please remember that because you
see (hear?) a better copy it doesn't mean it shows up here. And of
course that works vice versa (as you found out with the Sam & Dave
above). Not every YT clip I post shows over there just as not every Cash
Box YT clip you post shows here (or sometimes I find a better one)

If you have the time, Bruce, some more detailed proof please.
On "It's Gonna Work Out Fine" with Mickey Baker, she did not call
out Ike or Ikie.

Are you wacked or what?
In "It's Gonna Work Out Fine" she says "I wanna tell you something Ike"
and then starts the next line with "Ikey." Check here at about 27-28
seconds in, stupid!

been DECADES since it was last on TV.
Good to report Elly Mae looks as delicious as ever :)

You're older than Granny now, you should be looking at her, not the
young girl who could be your great granddaughter.
