Ah, the weekend is almost here. Me, I plan on sleeping through it if at all possible. After the past month, I’m beyond fried.
But since it is, after all, the weekend, here’s a list of a dozen songs I would insist on having with me were I ever marooned on a post-atomic test atoll in the South Pacific.
…a prospect, BTW, that doesn’t sound all too bad to me right here, right now…
Here they are, in no particular order:
Theme From “The Endless Summer” – The Sandals
California Girls – The Beach Boys
Guantanamera – The Sandpipers
Banks Of The Ohio – Olivia Newton-John
Baby, I Love You – The Ronettes
Flamingo – Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass
‘Til I Die – The Beach Boys
It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere – Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffett
Slow Dance With A Fast Girl – Aqua Velvets
He’ll Have To Go – Elvis Presley
Hey Jude – The Beatles
Zydeco Gris-Gris – Beausoleil
Enjoy the music, and have a great weekend everyone! Catch you on the flip-flop.
I have most of those titles in my dessert island collection and thanks for the additional cuts. Rainy ass Friday..better Sat/Sunday. Hope you get some peaceful sleep and recharge after the ORDEAL..Love to you and Tracey.

Good list Doug. I had never seen the Alan Jackson/Buffet version.It’s almost time to break out the Herb Alpert Christmas album. I usually try to wait until at least the day after thanksgiving
