      @Mel Wood81 I am not disagreeing with you. I simply feel that Donna was a very good choice for the job. She sang with the Skyliners for some 40 years.

    • @ronlheureux7623
      @ronlheureux7623 4 роки тому +4

      @Mel Wood81 Yes, there are many. Just search The Skyliners. If you find some of the 2000s PBS Doo Wop specials, like Do Wop 50 and 51, etc. You will find Donna over may years. Personally, I and the other guys that comment on those performance drule over her.
      The Drummer, Mark Groom is her husband. He was a member first. Also, there are at least 3 videos, one or two Janet Vogel singing "I Can Dream" and two of Donna singing the song. The one where Donna is in the gold lama dress is the better of the two. Enjoy and let me know what you think, my friend.

      "Not sure why they chose that decor and those outfits at the time,"
      One reason would be that westerns were very popular in those days.
      Another reason would be that the scene and performance was part of either a movie or stage play. When they do this, it's part of their marketing plan to get people interested in the movie or play. It's still done today; people just don't realize it when it happens.

    My son is in radio in California, knowing that this is my absolute favorite song, on my 60th birthday 12 years ago, he did an interview with Jimmy Beumont , and he had Jimmy call me and what a surprise, he taped the interview. About a year later the Skyliners came to Las Vegas for a show, where I live and we had chance to visit a bit. Rest in peace Jimmy. Thanks for your great music and memories.

Good trip, Master Jimmy Beaumont. Forever Jimmy and his Skyliners, who already cross the sky for eternity.

I was 16 when my Mom's sister Jerry took me to see the first showing of American Graffiti in 1973, I chuckled at the dress style for the guys but fell in love with the music, especially Since I Don't Have You! I still love this song in December of 2021!!!
