THEM GLORIA (1964) This week in 1965, THEM released their debut album 'Angry Young Them' (June 1965). From the album, the garage rock staple GLORIA, written b...y VAN MORRISON. NOTE: The surviving black & white copy of this promo isn't in the greatest condition but I’ve managed to sharpen the picture and inject some colour. The promo is particularly notable for the appearance of SUBLIMINAL SHOTS OF A SMILING DONKEY inserted between the band performing! Released as the B-side of "Baby, Please Don't Go", according to Van Morrison, the song was titled after his cousin Gloria, who was 13 years older. The song is not about her though but a girl who comes by for (presumably) sexual encounters.... ----------------------------------------- Hello, and a warm welcome to COLOURING THE PAST.

When Them (and later The Doors) performed the song live, it often became an extended jam with Morrison going into more graphic, spoken-word detail about the encounter. The song got little airplay in England, but found a following in America among the same garage rock audience that loved "Louie Louie." In the US, it was first released (as the B-side) in March 1965, but was reissued as the A-side of the single in April 1966, which is when it charted at #71. It became the most well known song for the group, despite its humble beginnings. In 1966, The Doors shared a bill with Them at the The Whisky A-Go-Go in West Hollywood, California for a series of shows. Them's Morrison was a big influence on The Doors' Morrison, and Jim learned a lot about stagecraft and incorporating poetry into his act from watching Van. The final night of the performances, both bands shared the stage to perform this song. It’s since been recorded by numerous outfits. The Shadows of Knight made a version that hit #10 in the US two years later. Some of the other groups to record the song include Blues Magoos (1967), Patti Smith (1975, with a line from her poem Oath added at the beginning: "Jesus died for somebody's sins but not mine"), Count Five and Eddie & The Hot Rods. In Rolling Stone magazine's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time issue, Morrison says of this song: "I was just being me, a street cat from Belfast. Probably like thousands of kids from Belfast who were in bands."

Un clásico de R.E.M. que nunca pasará de moda

TONY ORLANDO & DAWN - TIE A YELLOW RIBBON ROUND THE OLE OAK TREE This date in 1973 saw the UK release of 'Tie A Yellow Ribbon', the third album by American popu...lar music group Dawn (Tony Orlando, Telma Hopkins & Joyce Vincent Wilson) (June 12th 1973) The album was released as 'Tuneweaving' in the US. From the album, the classic single TIE A YELLOW RIBBON ROUND THE OLE OAK TREE. NOTE: I've upscaled this TV clip and improved the colour saturation. Written by Irwin Levine and Larry Brown (credited as L. Russell Brown), who wrote the previous #1 hit for the group, "Knock Three Times," the song is based on a story called "Going Home" that Levine read in the January 1972 edition of the magazine Reader's Digest. The story was originally published in the New York Post on October 14, 1971, appearing in a column called "The Eight Million" written by Pete Hamill. In the story, six kids riding a bus from New York to Fort Lauderdale strike up a conversation with a man named Vingo, who tells them he was just released from prison after four years in jail. He told his wife, Martha, that she could start a new life without him, and for the last three-and-a-half years of his incarceration, he didn't hear from her. In his last letter to her, he gave her instructions. The story reads: "We used to live in this town, Brunswick, just before Jacksonville, and there's a big oak tree just as you come into town, a very famous tree, huge. I told her that if she'd take me back, she should put a yellow handkerchief on the tree and I'd get off and come home. If she didn't want me, forget it - no handkerchief and I'd go through. Everyone on the bus kept a lookout for the tree, and when they arrived, there were lots of handkerchiefs tied to it, giving the story a very happy ending." ----------------------------------------- Hello, and a warm welcome to COLOURING THE PAST.

Pete Hamill heard the story at a Greenwich Village bar called the Lion's Head, where writers would congregate. Levine and Brown thought it would make a great song, so they used the story as the basis for the lyric, changing the handkerchief to a yellow ribbon, since "Tie A Yellow Handkerchief Round The Ole Oak Tree" would be awkward. Many associated this song with soldiers returning home from the Vietnam War; yellow ribbons began appearing on trees to welcome them home.
