    OK will take your word for it.  But I would say that was just normal for a lot of people back then.  Except for the Starbucks which wasn't around then.

  • How about Roy Orbison?  He was a little later than Buddy, but a real hipster.

  • I agree.  Buddy helped pioneer the Rockabilly sound, and Orbison contributed.  Loved him in the Traveling Wilburys. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at January 23, 2019 7:38 AM MST

  • Roy, Buddy and others were pioneers in a sound known as "Rockabilly" that would influence the British Invasion of the sixties. Roy Orbison had a wonderful unique sound that helped define the late fifties and early sixties. Buddy was a prolific songwriter and we can only wonder how much work he might have turned out.

    What about Liberace?



    Was she the original penisless pianist?

  • Haha:) I don’t really know anything about that artist, but if you say that’s his title, I believe you.
