Fluid Drive was an automatic transmission effort put forth by Chrysler I think!

This Dinah Washington tune from 1954 was considered a bit risqué! You could only hear it on the hip (good) music stations and not the square(Normal Broadcast) stations! That was the way it was back then Folks believe it or not!

I first heard this over 50 years ago at age 7. I loved it! She has been my Diva ever since. Of course I thought it was about TV -- I hear it slightly differently now at 60. It remains one of my all time favorite songs & they should play it at my wake when the time comes (not soon I hope). There are NO bad Dinah Washington songs -- she could sing any drivel & make it good.

"When he finally hit my channel eleven, I cried mama, he treats your daughter good" My my my... To all the youngins wanting to know about seduction, there is so much more to it than getting undressed. Ain't enough jelly in the world to rival what the imagination can do!

This is amazing; I'm only a teenager, but I am interested in starting my own vinyl collection. Starting won't be hard, because my grandparents have lots of old records (mostly 45s and 33s) that they wouldn't mind me having. Cool beans! Any advice would be appreciated, :)

I had this on 78 when I was about 11. My oldest sister gave it to me. Wish I still had it.
