There's now a post saying we're going "way back" and should prepare to be "floored" with a link to an Armstrong floor commercial circa 1965.

I was debating going straight to Pandora today, but if it's '65, I am in.

Damn, that's a groovy Excelon Tile commercial. Nothing like a little asbestos on the floor of your active room.

And BOS for Ramsey Lewis and the In Crowd he hangs out with.

Agreed.

A lot of early applications of stereo effects basically just took one performer or instrument and put in in one channel and often the end result isn't that satisfying, esp w headphones.  (Stereo mixes of Beatles is one good example.  If they made it in mono, I want to hear it that way.) But the separation mixing in People Get Ready had a nice twist: the call and response worked well going back and forth.

Left: People get ready...
Right: There's a train a-coming.
L: All you need is faith...
R: To hear the diesels humming
L: Faith is the key
R: Open the doors and board 'em..

has everyone read the Autobiography of Malcom X?   should be required reading in all schools

PS: That was Robert William Conrad (TV's Cannon, narrator on The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show) doing the Pontiac GTO "It's all tiger!" commercial.   GTO = Get Turned On!

I Got You Babe makes me want to laugh and cry at the same time.  I love it.  To quote Tom Hanks from that Bosom Buddies clip we hear every time we get to that 80s year :"Oh Sonny Sonny Sonny Sonny Sonny (and Cher)."

04/26/12 - Thursday! 1965

10. Sonny and Cher - I Got You, Babe

confession:
When I was a freshman at UCSB, I took an archery class, I think early '69.  I had this album, and one day, I brought it in, tacked it to a target, and shot it up with a bow and arrow!  I regret it, but hey, they were already so uncool by '69!

And Cher should be singing "zoo-bee-zoo-bee-zoo" to Jon Hamm.
