PAUL JABARA Yankee Doodle Dandy
With the imminent Independence day holiday, I am posting this odd little minor hit from Oscar and Grammy winning Paul Jabara. Best known for the hits No more Tears, Last Dance and It s raining men, Jabara died in 1992. His classic songs have been with me all these years are among my all time favourite compositions. He left us way too soon. Yankee Doodle Dandy it seems was never released as an A side single in America, but it did show up on the Australian charts for a solitary week back in June of 1978, entering the Top 100 at, 99. Strangely, some 5 weeks later it resurfaced and spent a further 8 weeks climbing to a peak of, 64 It was featured on his 1977 LP Shut Out. My apologies for the incomplete version of the song. The song ex vinyl cuts off about twenty seconds before its end. Enjoy it anyway, please To all my American friends have a great Independence Day.
