The Boney 500: Songs 224-221

[T_Bone0806]

The next 3 tunes on the countdown:


224. DA DOO RON RON-THE CRYSTALS (1963)
Single

Phil Spector may be a jerk, to put it mildly, but he made some great records. This is one of them. It charges
right out of the gate and never lets up. A classic bridge between the 50's and 60's sounds.




223. HONKY TONK WOMEN-THE ROLLING STONES (1969)
Single

Need more cowbell? That's how this one opens, and Mick is at his struttin' best vocalizing here. Greasy guitars over
a slow cooking groove seal the deal. They got away with some pretty naughty lyrics for that day and age, too.




222. NEAL'S FANDANGO-THE DOOBIE BROTHERS (1975)
Album: Stampede

A concert staple of the band..every time I saw them (4 times total I think), in their various lineups, several
concert videos I saw, they always played this song. No wonder, as it's a blazing "barreling down the road" type
of tune perfect for firing up a crowd and showing off solo chops.

I say it every year - When will the Doobies make it into the R&RHOF?

I say it every year - When will the Doobies make it into the R&RHOF?

I say it every year: They're no Gladys Knight and the Pips

Preaching to the choir on this end, my friend...I'm with ya.

I say it every year - When will the Doobies make it into the R&RHOF?

I say it every year: They're no Gladys Knight and the Pips

That Knight woman woulda been nothin' without those mighty Pips.

Woo, Woo!
