  • Cry! Cry! Cry! or Hey, Porter

    From Steve Mc@21:1/5 to All on Wed Oct 18 10:25:22 2023
    Hard to chose, but I'd have to give Hey Porter a slight edge.

    It's a tie for me, Steve, I can't decide between these two Sun sides.

    For me, better sides can be found in these two playlists:

    1955-1956 "Johnny Cash with His Hot and Blue Guitar" (16 tracks) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgAUl9KQrtM&list=OLAK5uy_l2u9SdJbEMu5giKsvs-0v2n4JW3WkTEXU
    starts with "Rock Island Line"

    1957-1958 "Sings the Songs That Made Him Famous" (16 tracks): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-DjCdKcg_s&list=OLAK5uy_mrA9nm5b8AdXUASZHaDMWBVeyGpK-sm8E
    starts with "Ballad Of A Teenage Queen"

    I don't like either one. Wish you had asked about Don't Take Your Guns
    To Town/I Still Miss Someone!

    Both 7's but "I Still Miss Someone" in front.

    He did a memorable version of this live in a London show I saw many yearsago that I'd rate an 8

    I bought this record in 1959. I bought it for the "novelty" side but
    once I turned it over I liked "I Still Miss Someone" even better. 7 for
    Guns, 8 for Miss.
    (Editorial: But I must say the message behind the lyrics to that
    "novelty" side resonate even more strongly 64 years later in an America
    plagued by gun violence.)

    I Walk The Line / Get Rhythm

    Train Of Love/ There You Go

    All much better.

    It's one of the music's all-time best double-siders, but I'll give a slight nod to "Hey Porter."

    Does the phrase "in my opinion" exist anywhere in your vocabulary?

    Of course, but you simply posted:

    As if this was some sort of accepted fact as it is with things like...

    Hound Dog / Don't Be Cruel
    Wouldn't It Be Nice / God Only Knows
    Penny Lane / Strawberry Fields Forever
