Crunchy granola?

Bah! Monday again...

Never mind, eh?

Among another cornucopia of fellow celebrants, that include William Wordsworth (his 255th, indeed), Billie Holiday, Sir David Frost, Janis Ian, Russell Crowe, Yves Rocher, Ravi Shankar, James Garner, Ian Richardson, Andrew Sachs, Gorden Kaye, Florian Schneider of Kraftwerk, Jackie Chan, Wayne "Trapper John" Rogers, John Oates of Hall & Oates, Gerry Cottle, Francis Ford Coppola, Duncan James of Blue and - erm - Ole Kirk Christiansen, founder of Lego, it would have been the birthday today of that ultimate master of easy-listening music, Mr Percy Faith!

Utterly perfect to cheer us up on this Tacky Music Monday, here's his orchestra's version of a choon originally written by Neil Diamond, with a most bizarrely-choreographed dance routine, to boot!

Have a good one, dear reader.

  1. That is one odd bit of choreography. But I would love a pair of those braces. Today’s meme is brilliant.

    1. The dancers are German. In the 1970s. What can I say? Jx

      PS If only alcohol were permitted in work meetings - they'd go much quicker!

    2. I thought about you this afternoon, we went to the Leigh Bowery show at the Tate, it was great and very poignant.
