"Come Go With Me (Single Version)" by The Del-Vikings

Listen on Apple Music (music.apple.com/us/album/come-)

What song makes you feel nostalgic for a time you never lived through?

Using the daily prompt today because I absolutely love the 50's and 60's music. I didn't live through that era because I was born in the early 70's. However, my parents turned me on to some good music, including a ton of 50's and 60's music and I even had the pleasure of seeing a lot of those singers and bands in concert at Little Darlin's in the late 80's in Kissimmee, FL.

So with that said, the song I'm choosing today is Come Go With Me by the Del Vikings. A group that I actually became very good friends with in the late 80's and early 90's. We became so close, that when two of their founding members passed away, my dad and I were both invited to their funerals. We also used to go fishing with them out in the Florida Keys.

[Intro]
Dom-dom dom-dom dom-de-doo-be
Dom dom dom dom dom dom-de-doo-be
Dom dom dom dom dom dom-be-doo-be
Dom woa-woa-woa-woah
Dom-dom dom-dom dom-de-doo-be
Dom dom dom dom dom dom-de-doo-be
Dom dom dom dom dom dom-be-doo-be
Dom woa-woa-woa-woah

[Verse 1]
Well I love, love you darlin'
Come and go with me
Come home with me
Way beyond the sea
I need you darlin'
So come and go with me
Come, come, come, come
Come into my heart
Tell me darlin'
We will never part
I need you darlin'
So come go with me

[Chorus]
Yes, I need you
Yes, I really need you
Please say you'll never leave me
Well, say you never
Yes, you really never
You never give me a chance

The Kuba Komet entertainment center from 1957. It had eight speakers - quite a design masterpiece for the time, and it still looks pretty damn good today

🎥 Sunset Boulevard (1950) stars Gloria Swanson as fading silent-film star Norma Desmond. William Holden plays screenwriter Joe Gillis - drawn into the deadly orbit of an actress who longs for a return to the limelight.

Watching the 1954 series: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes.

It is pretty fun. I found it on archive.org. It has 39 episodes which are each around half an hour long.

The actors play the characters very good and the episodes are pretty good in terms of story and visual quality (good rip).

The actors haven't been in anything else of note.

Mary Ford was an American guitarist and vocalist, comprising half of the husband-and-wife musical team Les Paul and Mary Ford. Between 1950 and 1954, the couple had 16 top-ten hits, including "How High the Moon", which was a number one hit on the Billboard charts. In 1951 alone they sold six million records. Ford became one of the early practitioners of multi-tracking.
