Conversations With Marva: Old School Friday: Grown Folks Music

  • Texas_JAM · 1 year ago
    Not sure I would call it "grown folks music." I would just call it good music. :)

    Now that grown folks' music. I enjoyed all three. :grin:
  • MarvalusOne · 1 year ago
    Texas - It is definitely good music...

    HD - Isn't that good?

    Thank you both for dropping by...have a good day!

    Great, great choices. Jackie Wilson should be much better known today, and Lil Richard was the perm originator along with James!
  • MarvalusOne · 1 year ago
    Thanks IW...

    How could anyone forget that scene from Coming to America? He was singing at the top of his lungs and everyone was like Shut the &*#&($*& up! :lol:

    Definitely grown folks music...and good music!

    V - I know right!? I had to go and pull out the movie last night just so I could get my giggle on...

    :smile:
    We were of like minds on number 3. One way to make sure it stays old school is to bring out the perm.

    Have a great weekend!
  • MarvalusOne · 1 year ago
    Danielle - You got that right!

    Have a great weekend yourself!

    You really did your homework this week. Good stuff!

    Little Richard is a scream! His mannerisms haven’t changed a bit.

    James Brown is a legend!

    B - It took me a while to get these going...I was knee deep in YouTube yesterday! :lol:
  • MrsGrapevine · 1 year ago
    I like Little Richard back then before he started dressing like Elton John, he was kind of cute in a masculine way. They are certainly dancing there butts off!

    This is the second Jackie Wilson song today.

    James looks nice in this video with hat on
  • MarvalusOne · 1 year ago
    Mrs G - I was giggling at how it seemed like the audience couldn't contain themselves...it was like they were moved by a spirit to dance, dance, dance!
  • Danielle · 1 year ago
    Great choices! I love all those old-timers. :wink:
  • Marcus LANGFORD · 1 year ago
    Her name was Lisa :lol: and I never knew it was a Jackie Wilson song. I clearly learn something new every day! Great vid picks!
  • MarvalusOne · 1 year ago
    Lisa...yeah! :lol:

    I didn't know until yesterday that it was Jackie Wilson either...
  • Quick · 1 year ago
    The little Richard shout! lol Nice choices- :mrgreen:
  • aj · 1 year ago
    I just lurve Fridays. Excellent picks.
  • MarvalusOne · 1 year ago
    Quick - I was whooping and hollering right along with Little Richard! tee hee hee...

    AJ - I think this is the greatest meme EVER!!!
  • Chocl8t · 1 year ago
    I like all of your choices but the one that tickles me most is Little Richard!! He's still rocking his perm!!
  • MarvalusOne · 1 year ago
    Choc - Ain't he though?! I saw a picture of him the other day, perm still tight...
  • regina · 1 year ago
    Great minds... I also posted James Brown!
    But little Richard is a hoot!!!
    I love Jackie Wilson, I think he is barely known to this present generation.
    This perm theme was an interesting one!
    it is a good thing I am currently unemployed because every Thursday I am up until about 3 am on YouTube!!
  • MarvalusOne · 1 year ago
    Ms. Regina - I saw your JB and Snoop...tee hee hee...

    I was literally in my office at home cracking up at Little Richard...at 3 in the morning too!
