Hello Everyone!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the wonderful birthday wishes! I haven't been writing for such a long time. I'm keeping busy with school, work, church, and friends. And Judith: Yes, I will listen to Andre's music on my birthday. It keeps me happy and energized. I ecspecially love listening to him when I'm in the kitchen. Sometimes I'll be sweeping the floor, and when the Blue Danube comes on, I dance with my broom. hehe. Thanks again everyone! Take Care,
Sarah

HAPPY BITHDAY RICKY NELSON !!
Singer and Actor. Eric Hilliard Nelson was born in Teaneck, New Jersey, to Ozzie and Harriet Nelson. Ozzie was a band leader and Harriet was the band's vocalist. Later, they were best known for their radio show, "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet." Ricky and his brother David joined the show's cast playing themselves in 1944. He made his first movie in 1947's "Here comes the Nelsons." This lead to their television show, "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet." The show became the first and longest running family sit-com. Rick was also interested in Tennis and was ranked fifth in California among tennis player's 15 years old and younger. He competed nationally, and at one time had ambitions to go professional. His first recording was his rendition of Fats Domino‘s "I'm Walkin'." The record flew out of the stores and sold one million copies in a week, completely unheard of at that time. The song went to #2 on the Billboard Chart, and its flip side, "A Teenagers Romance" hit #2 as well. Through the power of television, he became one of the first artists that audiences saw and heard simultaneously. He would perform a song at the end of every show. Consequently American teenagers had far greater access to Rock n' Roll than they ever would have had, one of Rick Nelson's most important contribution to music. Life magazine ran a cover story on him, and coined an original phrase to describe what he had become: a "Teenage Idol." At the age of 21 he had 9 gold records and his single hit that year, "Travelin' Man," sold over 2 million copies and went to #1. Its flip side "Hello, Mary Lou" proved to be his biggest hit ever, reaching #1 in 32 countries. For the television show, Ozzie overlaid Rick's performance of "Travelin' Man" with some footage specially shot on location, making it the first conceptual rock video in history. He appeared in "Rio Bravo" (1959) and "The Wackiest Ship in the Army" (1960). He married Kristin Harmon in April 1963. They had a daughter, Tracy, and three sons, Gunner, Matthew and Sam. He and Kristen would later divorce. "Garden Party" became Rick's first million-seller in over a decade, hitting at #6 and going gold in 1972. "Interviews from the class of 55 Recording Sessions" won a Grammy in 1986 for Best Spoken Word Recording. It was Rick's only Grammy, and vastly ironic to those who knew him well as the quiet man who would rather sing than talk. On December 31, 1985, en route from Alabama to a New Year's Eve show in Dallas, Nelson's DC-3 crash-landed in a field near DeKalb, Texas. The burning plane trapped its passengers inside, killing all aboard, except the pilot and co-pilot, who escaped through the cockpit window. He was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and the Rockabilly Hall of Fame.
I still have my signed 45. I met Rick when he played at a local fair. He was a kind and NICE man.
And yes...he was Handsome!
New tweet from Andre on Twitter. He just landed in Melbourne! See "The Daily Rieu" page!
Happy Birthday Ricky Nelson.
He was a favorite of mine. I loved his singing. I enjoyed "Garden Party" very much as was quite interested in knowing the story that went with that song. Being a person who really doesn't always go along with "conformity", I appreciated his stand...
Taken from Wikipedia:
""Garden Party" was a 1972 hit song for Rick Nelson and the Stone Canyon Band from the album Garden Party. It tells of his being booed off the stage at Madison Square Garden, seemingly because he was playing his newer, country-tinged music instead of the 1950s-era rock that he had been successful with earlier, and his realization that "you can't please everyone, so you've got to please yourself".
I feel he was quite a guy. I wished I had met him. Nice, Sally, that you were able to. I agree, he was handsome.
Happy Birthday Macky Meyers!
I hope you have a wonderful day tomorrow full of happy surprises!
