Jim Dandy - Black Oak Arkansas

[lasudio]

VeronaHills, Round Twenty Six: Shikibu

In her nine to five, Kestrel's duty was to keep her eyes on the net.

Intelligence gathering on certain subsections of the world wide web was crucial to act preventatively against antisocial behaviour, rather than waiting at the bottom of the cliff with the redundant ambulance. Kestrel understood this well, having worked her way up in her government role with her faerie status giving her an edge on societal response to cultural difference. She'd delivered many a PowerPoint on the changing landscape of Riverblossom Hills since the fae migration from the forest; this had impressed the higher-ups enough to give her her own task force and a blank cheque to run surveillance on those with anti-fae sentiment. So, on her days off, Kestrel liked to look to the stars to remind herself - no matter how crazy the world was getting, and how bad things could seem, there was a whole universe out there.

Downstairs, Maria was having a gathering to watch a particularly important football game. Kestrel didn't know too much about it but was glad her girlfriend felt comfortable enough in her new home to enjoy her hobby with others. It also helped to know there was a faerie and an elvin human in attendance - Kestrel decided to wrap up her stargazing for the moment to pop down and introduce herself.

Community would be the saving grace of humanity.

It’s a Jim Dandy showdown!

Here's LaVern Baker’s live rendition bursting with charisma and rhythm!

Sara Lee & the Spades inject raw rockabilly energy into their take —a blazing, fast-driven version that crackles with attitude.

1961

Born on this day 95 years ago: blazingly soulful and sensual rhythm and blues queen LaVern Baker (née Delores LaVern Baker, 11 November 1929 – 10 March 1997). In her prime in the fifties and early sixties, Baker’s only rivals were fellow R&B divas like Ruth Brown and Etta James. My favourite songs by Baker: “Jim Dandy” (1956) (memorably used by John Waters in the Pink Flamingos (1972) soundtrack), the ferocious “Voodoo Voodoo” (1961) and especially her quieter, more subdued moment “I’ll Never Be Free” (1957). Onscreen, the fierce Baker makes a vivid impression (belting out the song “Tra La La”) in the 1956 jukebox musical Rock, Rock, Rock! (starring a young and adorable Tuesday Weld).

I don’t care if this is off beat or not. I see absolutely no content for my mans so I had to make a cringey edit myself
