HOMER AND JETHRO IN PONCA CITY, OKLAHOMA

Mix 'N' Match

My records are all in storage at the moment, which severely limits my ability to pitch in, but there's no way I'm going to sit out "Homer & Jethro Month" in its entirety. So here's a relatively early (1954) photo with a relatively late (1970) track that doesn't relate to it. And just so you know, digging out that magazine got me a fat lip when the box it was in slid off the stack and pasted me one in the chops! The things I do for you people...

I Don't Flirt Anymore

In 1954, Hank Snow sent I Don't Hurt Anymore to the top of the country music charts.

Several years later, Homer & Jethro lampooned it with I Don't Flirt Any More on their Wanted For Murder lp (1966).

Get Down, and Do The Do

"We gonna get down. We gonna do the do. I'm going to hit these motherfuckers."

-Dock Ellis, in a clubhouse speech to his teammates before a 1974 game against the Cincinnati Reds in which he plunked the first three batters he faced (Pete Rose, Joe Morgan and Dan Driessen, for those of you keeping score at home).
