An estate sale find that I must share.
The Lady Sunbeam Serenade.
Just look at her, the picture of beauty.
She spins some vinyl while she prepares herself for her beloved.
Hair and nails perfectly done; the pedicure on her size 14 feet is flawless.
Her appliance servants have not let her down. Not a lick of stubble on these legs or pits.
She wears a blue nightgown, not white. She is married. Her knees touch. She has the faint scent of Lysol. She has class.
The following songs waft gently throughout her room:
Secret Love
Sophisticated Lady
The Way You Look Tonight
Moments to Remember
And This is My Beloved
Stranger in Paradise
These Foolish Things
It Isn't Fair
Innamorata
Her beloved is in another room listening to his record. "The Best of Braun" plays on his Admiral Penthouse stereo. He snuffs out another Lucky Strike before joining his lady.
The result of this evening is a lovely young lady. A young woman in today's world.
So much has changed since 1958. So, so much has changed.
New songs need to replace the old.
If you were to reissue this record in today's world, what songs would you pick?
Me:
A) El Cumbanchero (speeds up her prep processes)
B) The Stripper (let down your hair, girl!)
