It's been a long time since I went to a thrift store, so on Friday, we stopped at our favorite, called...Rediscovered Treasures.
It has thrifty things, antiques, repainted and fixed up treasures that are so beautiful. But, one of the things I love about this store is the vinyl...I love records and they have a super good choice! My husband said, "do you even listen to your records?" I said, "Yes, I do and I love them!". There's nothing quite like the sound of a vinyl record. One of the records I found this time was, The Best of the Statler Brothers, do you remember them, or did you listen to country music?
DO YOU REMEMBER THESE
The Statler Brothers
Saturday morning serials
Chapters one through fifteen
Fly paper, penny loafers, and lucky strike green
Flat tops, sock hops, Studebaker, "Pepsi, please"

Ah, do you remember these?
Cigar bands on your hands
Your daddy's socks rolled down
Sticks, no plugs and aviator caps, with flaps that button down

Movie stars on Dixie cup tops and knickers to your knees
Ah, do you remember these?
The hit parade, grape truaide, the Sadie Hawkins dance
Peddle pushers, duck tail hair, and peggin' your pants
Howdy doody

Ah, do you remember those?
James dean, he was "keen", Sunday movies were taboo
The senior prom, Judy's mom, rock 'n roll was new
Cracker jack prize
Stars in your eyes
"ask daddy for the keys"
Ah, do you remember these?
The boogie man, lemonade stand and taking your tonsils out
Indian burn and wait your turn and four foul balls
You're out!
Cigarette loads and secret codes and saving lucky stars

Can you remember back that far?
To boat neck shirts and fender skirts and crinoline petticoats
Mums the word and dirty bird and double root beer float
Moon hubcaps and loud heel taps and "he's a real gone cat"

Ah, do you remember that?
Dancing close, little moron jokes and "cooties" in her hair
Captain midnight, ovaltine, and the whip at the county fair
Charles atlas course, Roy Rogers horse, and "only the shadow
Knows"

Ah, do you remember those?
Gables charms, "froggin" your arm, loud mufflers, pitching woo
Going steady, veronica and betty, white bucks and blue suede shoes
Knock, knock jokes
Who's there?
Dewey

Remember these
Yes we do!

Hi Barb. That looks like a super fun thrift store. We got rid of all our vinyl years ago - but still have a bunch of CDs. I don't remember that song at all. Hope you have a great weekend. See you again soon.
I'd not mind shopping there. No don't hit me because I lived through that era...I do not remember these. I'm either losing it or I lived under a rock.
This was an enjoyable post! You are still a young one. I do remember all of this. I loved country music, and this was a great song. I have a few vinyl records, but not a record player.
I love the music of my era and play songs all the time. It helps me remember.
Thanks for posting this one.
Miss you, girl, and I hope we get up there sometime soon. Our life just keeps moving faster than I would like. I still haven't had time to read a good novel. I'm supposed to be reading in my rocking chair at this moment in time.
Sending loving thoughts and hugs!
That looks like a fun thrift store.
I so regret getting rid of all my vinyls. Those were good days.
Hi Barb.... seems like forever since we've talked. I love thrift stores and antique stores. So many great things. Now, that was some great music. We still have several of the old vinyls and our grandchildren are so fascinated by them. Enjoy your week...
Hello Barb, I loved this post!
I remember The Statler Brothers and so many things on that list, although I am a wee bit younger having been born in 1965. :-) Oh, I sure miss those days.
I love a good rummage in an old antique or thrift store too. Just like a library, I could while away the time for hours.
Hope you are enjoying your week.
God Bless,
Christine
