The Creator wants us to Drum. (God) wants us to corrupt the world with drums, dance, and chants. We've already corrupted the world with power and greed, which has gotten us nowhere. Now's the time to corrupt the world with drum, dance, and chants.----Babatunde Olatungi, Nigerian master drummer

Third US Army Soldier Show: Good Time Summer Time (1971)








This show was made up mostly of popular music on the radio in 1971. I can still hear the deep baritone voice of Anthony Burke singing the Robert Goulet's "It's Impossible." His amazing voice sounded like Goulet. I wonder where he is today? Still singing? This show did include the 1971 Broadway show tune, Purlie, from the musical of the same name. We had done "Walk Him Up the Stairs" from Purlie in our show "Getting It Together, Now." The show concluded with "Open a New Window" from the Broadway musical "Mame."
