The ultimate over-the-hill song

[ladyapple27]

Most people are familiar with Billy Ward and the Dominoes' classic "Sixty Minute Man."  Answer songs were popular in the fifties, and they released their own answer: "Can't Do Sixty No More."  You can imagine the lyrics. A friend recently had a milestone birthday, and I sent him a copy. Priceless!

Note: Clarence Carter released a gleefully lascivious version of "Sixty Minute Man."  I can only imagine what his version of "Can't Do Sixty No More" would sound like.

Daddy told me about stores keeping certain R&B records under the counter, out of sight of casual shoppers to avoid being prosecuted for selling obscene material. The recordings are considered tame now.
