A look back at day 3 of Woodstock, 55 years ago today.
“Purple haze all in my eyes
Don't know if it's day or night
You got me blowing, blowing my mind
Is it tomorrow, or just the end of time?”

Purple Haze – Woodstock Day 3 – Lately things they don’t seem the same. #MusicisLife #TedTocksCovers
Today is the anniversary of Day 3 of Woodstock. As stated in my previous two posts, my initial plan was to share an old Ted Tocks feature discussing an artist and a Woodstock performance from 54 ye…
“Madly Odd!”One of my favorite '50s tunes! I love Sha Na Na, too. They're so fun! #1970s #rocknroll #ShaNaNa #RockAroundTheClock #classicTV

Rock Around the Clock’ gets the full Sha Na Na treatment
Sha Na Na brings 1950s rock and roll back to life with their electrifying performance of 'Rock Around the Clock' on The Midnight Special 1974. Their gold lamé suits, wild dance moves, and infectious energy make this a must-watch trip down memory lane.
These guys are epic and the cheese you never knew that you needed! #ShanaNa #1970s #Doowop #RamaLamaDingDong #RetroRock
Sha Na Na’s ‘Rama Lama Ding Dong’ gets you groovin’
Sha Na Na's performance of "Rama Lama Ding Dong" in 1973 was a dazzling spectacle of 1950s rock and roll nostalgia. The group, decked out in gold lamé and leather, brought the spirit of doo-wop to life on stage. Their energetic rendition had viewers glued to their screens, tapping their feet to the catchy rhythm.
JakeWhen #ShaNaNa played #Woodstock in 1969, the oldest song in their set list was 12 years old. And the newest one ("Wipe-Out") was only SIX years old!
1. Get a Job (1958)
2. Come Go with Me (1957)
3. Sihouettes (1957)
4. Teen Angel (1960)
5. His Latest Flame (1961)
6. Wipe Out (1963)
7. Book of Love (1958)
8. Teenager in Love (1959)
9. Little Darlin' (1957)
10. At the Hop (1958)
11. Duke of Earl (1962)
It never ceases to amaze me that #ShaNaNa was considered such a goofy, comical novelty act for covering songs that were 15 years old. "Get a Job" by the #Silhouettes was a #1 record in 1958.
This would be the equivalent of somebody today covering Lady Gaga's "Poker Face."
