Historical Musical Ditties From My Novel

Thank god for the internet! Here are some little historical musical ditties I found there while writing my novel, "Because We Could: An Unauthorized Love Story."

Article in the Tonawanda News, Saturday, January 4th, 1975
"Crazy David prefers making money, not war."

Often a Hammond B3 organ and Leslie are mentioned in the book. To hear the sound of this quintessential Rock and Roll combo, listen to Lee Michaels at:
