That's another one I would have bet came long after 1963. It's also the nastiest thing I've ever tried to drink!

Chas.
You never tried to drink a Ba Muoi Ba (33) Beer did ya? That stuff would make a drunkard take the pledge. Tab is wonderful in comparison. :thumbs2:
I'm not old enough to have been involved in that region of the world, but I remember reading a book by some gentlemen who were there and that beer was mentioned. They didn't have very favorable things to say about it. Something about a large cat, IIRC. :biggrinjester:
Some people used to say the same thing about Coors. :reddevil
I felt, and still feel, that way about Miller Lite and The Beatles.
I feel that it is my mission to change your opinion about the Beatles.
I don't think that's gonna' happen, Bill. :tiphat:

Have y'all never heard of Bo Diddely, the Crawlin' King Snake, Jimmy Reed, The Kinston Trio, Ramsey Lewis Trio, Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, Peter, Paul and Mary, the Statler Brothers, il Divo, Sissel, et al?

The music didn't die when Buddy Holley's plane crashed, it died when the Beatles' plane landed...and, that's all I have to say about that.

Who were the Beatles? Were they before or after Sinatra?

I guess I'm a little unusual, but my musical tastes span alot of territory..."eclectic" I suppose. I like George Jones & George Strait...Beatles & Joan Baez ...Sinatra & Tom Jones...Tammy Wynette & Loretta Lynn... Van Morrison & Jim Morrison... Aaron Neville & Ray Charles... Willie Nelson & Jerry Jeff Walker... Jim Reeves & Patsy Cline.... both Hank Williams (Sr. & Jr.)...The Kingston Trio & The Mamas and Papas...Gary Puckett & Wilson Pickett...Rod Stewart & Norah Jones... Tony Bennett & The Eagles...Kristofferson & Haggard... Ray Price & Carlos Santana...and on and on and on. My wife burns CD's for me and most people would look at the mix on each of them and think it was made for a schizophrenic. :cool:
