No one in this world, so far as I know...has ever lost money by underestimating 
the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people.

Ah, the Interlude Period, as in a temporary break in the action. That does kinda 
fit the Doggie In the Window / Mama Will Bark Era. It just doesn't seem to 
measure up to the intensity of the big band years or the rockabilly years in 
terms of exciting music. Some stuff, sure, but decidedly bland by comparison 
with that which surrounded it.The armchair social historian in me wants to find 
an explanation for all that by looking st the folks who had just survived a 
horrific war and found great comfort in the peacefulness of Dinah Shore records 
and the escapist humor of Spike Jones. Has there ever been another act that came 
close to the zany sounds of Spike? Ever? And for ten years America loved that 
stuff. Gotta ask - why?Sent from my iPod - which explainz any bad typjngOn Apr
