vladavsnarod Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 'Louie Louie' singer Jack Ely dies in Oregon at 71 http://mashable.com/2015/04/28/louie-louie-singer-dies/?utm_cid=mash-com-fb-main-link In addition to the song's fame, Ely's incoherent singing also made it one of the most misunderstood. The FBI was so mystified by the hard-to-understand lyrics that it conducted an investigation into whether the song was obscene. They found it to be "unintelligible at any speed." Over the years, Ely and other band members attributed the indistinct lyrics to the microphone suspended from the ceiling, forcing Ely to shout up at it. Sean Ely said his father got "quite the kick" out the FBI's 455-page investigative report. He said his father certainly knew the words, and wasn't just slurring nonsense. https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=12&v=4V1p1dM3snQ
Аврам Гојић Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) Buddy Guy This morning, I come to you all with a heavy heart. BB King was the greatest guy I ever met. The tone he got out of that guitar, the way he shook his left wrist, the way he squeezed the strings... man, he came out with that and it was all new to the whole guitar playin' world. He could play so smooth, he didn't have to put on a show. The way BB did it is the way we all do it now. He was my best friend and father to us all. I'll miss you, B. I love you and I promise I will keep these damn Blues alive. Rest well. All my love, Buddy Edited May 15, 2015 by Грешни Василије
