Today 2004 Doris Troy died

Doris Troy (born 6 January 1937 and died 16 February 2004 from emphysema at her home in Las Vegas, Nevada) was an American R&B singer, known to her many fans as "Mama Soul."
She was born Doris Payne in The Bronx, the daughter of a Barbadian Pentecostal minister. Her parents disapproved of "subversive" forms of music like rhythm & blues, so she cut her teeth singing in her father's choir. She was working as an usherette at the Apollo where she was discovered by the 'Godfather of Soul', James Brown.
Doris Troy worked with Solomon Burke, The Drifters, Cissy Houston and Dionne Warwick before she co-wrote and recorded Just One Look which hit #10 in 1963. The song has been covered by The Hollies, Linda Ronstadt, Bryan Ferry and Harry Nilsson, among others.

Doris Troy - Just One Look includes nice Popcorn songs like the title song, Time and What'cha Gonna Do About It
01-Just One Look
02-Bossa Nova Blues
03-Stormy Weather
04-Someone Ain't Right
05-Lazy Days (When Are You Coming Home)
06-Be Sure
07-Tomorrow Is Another Day
08-But I Love Him
09-What'cha Gonna Do About It
10-Trust In Me
11-Somewhere Along The Way
12-Time
13-Please Little Angel
14-One More Chance
15-Hurry
16-He Don't Belong To Me
17-How My Heart Aches (Heartaches)
18-You'd Better Stop

First Popcorn broadcasting 2001_10_06

We'll forget the short time Theo Dumoulin played his records way back in 1973 on the famous Radio Veronica but tonight we celebrate the fact he had hist first Popcorn radio broadcast on midwave exactly six years ago on Radio192. After the deficit of R192 he joined internetstation Laser radio so there's a party tonight.....


For tonight's Popcorn playlist go to LASER radio or the The Popcorn Is On.
So take a look at the playlist. My personal 'rate' is, like last month when I joined in the studio, just a small 30%.... What's yours ??

Saturday at exactly 20 hours local_CET time Theo Dumoulin starts again. You can be live present if you JOIN us (click there on the 'listen' button) !
This way you get the internet stream directly in your Winamp or Mediaplayer.
You can also go to the LASER stream page and their stream.

I suppose it'll be tomorrow when I have time to post some music to the show. Sorry.

No Popcorn this saturday !!

Some Popcornlovers got a mail there will be no Popcorn next saturday because of the 'holiday season' ! Holiday season ???
Most of the songs played on Laser radio Popcorn are from expensive vinyl.
On this video you can see how 'Theo' prepared himself this week (as he usually does). Playing records and reading some interesting notes to tell the listeners.

When you watch this video you can understand why there's no Popcorn this saturday. Hope 'he's' recovered saturday september 1 !!! :-) :-)
It's (only) 21 seconds fun !

Maybe there's a 'stand in'.....

Luckily we can amuse ourselves tonight in the following Belgian disco's :

Popcorn is alive and kicking.....

Miss X Joyce Blair

During the last week I notice on Google almost every day a search to Miss X Joyce Blair.
She/he comes also to my Blog where I posted that song february 3 (Popcorn ...).
Sadly I noticed my link is gone but I wonder why that, or more, person(s) doesn't give a comment so I can re-upload. Too much effort ??

I also wonder why there seems to be such a desperate need for this song.
At E-Bay you can/could buy the single at about Euro/dollar 3-9, so a quite fair price.

By the way Joyce Blair passed away 19 august 2006 at the age of 73 years.
Go for instance to News independent to get some more info.
Your obituary left out a fun bit of her long career when she had a connection, albeit somewhat remote, to the Profumo scandal, writes Ellis Rich.

In 1963, under the pseudonym "Miss X", she recorded a single on the Ember Records label entitled "Christine", a then slightly risqué song about Christine Keeler, who featured so much in the John Profumo/Stephen Ward case. The single entered the charts and, in August 1963, Joyce found herself on the iconic TV show Ready Steady Go, sharing the bill with Pat Boone, Billy Fury, Brian Poole and the Tremeloes, Burl Ives and Chris Barber.

I believe I have more info (...) to that TV show Ready Steady Go so who knows maybe in the future ....

Belgium 'Popcorn' invasion ?

While working and listening to 'Popcorn V-Rocket radio' I notice a Belgium invasion..... :-)
See people from Lokeren, Lede, Geraardsbergen, Kapellen, Berlare, Bever coming by.
What's up ? What's happening ? Is there something I can do for ya ?

Well here's something you Belgium can do for me :-)
During the first 2007 popcorn prg by Theo Dumoulin januari he played two unidentified songs. Your fellow countryman 'Witte' said he knew/had both of them.
The day after I wrote we'll 'hang him' if he should be wrong.
A few days later I got mail by 'mister Mellow Theo' himself proving 'Witte' was wrong on one song. So he has to be hanged.....!!!!!
