The most recent Zillow ad had me running to the television. The song they had chosen for advertising effect was “Cattle Call” by Eddy Arnold. I have this recording on a 45 record!
I’m pretty sure my sister and I obtained a slew of 45 records from a Dad-attended-auction. While other kids were listening to the Beatles or Stones, I was listening to old recordings from someone else’s youth. “Let’s Have a Tiddley at the Milk Bar,” “Volare,” “I’m Getting Nuttin’ for Christmas,” by the ever-popular Ricky Zahnd and the Blue Jeaners, and many more.
I still have an old phonograph and those little plastic inserts for playing 45 rpms. And I still have those old records. And I still know all the words. And that probably explains a lot.
