OMG! Musique, "Push Push In the Bush"!  And now Peaches & Herb shakin' they groove thangs!

ETA: Now here's P&H doing one of their "Groove Thing"-soundalike follow-ups, "Roller-Skatin' Mate" (!) which I have heard OF, but never heard.

Trivia of the day: That song was written or co-written (I forget which) by Bobby Hebb ("Sunny").

and now my fave J-5 non-hit, "Blame it on the Boogie."

"We spent the night in 'Frisco
MacCauley brought the Crisco..."

and speaking of Frisco & Crisco: Sylvester!

wow, the Sylvers' "High School Dance", which I haven't heard since 1977.

and now a Peter Brown twin-spin! (betcha never expected to see that phrase written anywhere) "You Should Do It" and "Dance With Me".

Followed by Melba Moore covering the Bee Gees' "You Stepped into my Life".

Tues: Dean plays "resurrection Shuffle" -- the AG&D version. I was hoping for Tom Jones, but this'll do.

here's a rarity: "Third Finger, Left Hand", a 1972 Brit hit by a female duo called the Pearls, actually a cover of a Martha & the Vandellas LP cut (a Holland/Dozier/Holland tune). New to me.
