Movie Music Monday – Fast Times at Ridgemont High

It was on this day in 1963 that the Tymes took So Much In Love to the top of the charts. While their version is not heard in Fast Times at Ridgemont High, a cover by Timothy B. Schmit of the Eagles is, and it is on the soundtrack. Songfacts.com tells the story of the … Continue reading Movie Music Monday – Fast Times at Ridgemont High →

Due to my current work schedule, I was just not … Continue reading Haunted Hits →

Tune Tuesday – How Long

If you are like me, you have songs that when you hear them on your MP3 player, or your iPod, as soon as they end, you play them again.  I have quite a few of them.  I would wager a guess that these songs will end up here in future Tune Tuesday blogs.  Today's song … Continue reading Tune Tuesday – How Long →
