Thanks George for posting Popcorn Mania 18 - Any Way You Wanta!
ReplyDeleteMy personal opinion "Mari Norleen - Knock Me A Kiss" is a song that should definitely not be missing from any popcorn collection.
Kind regards,
Muske
You're welcome Muske! And indeed, "Knock Me a Kiss" is a great tune. And to think, there are so many other greats I haven't used... yet! I try to steer away from the more obvious tracks, and stick more to the rare or unsung gems.
DeleteHi George. Much appreciated. I am having problem navigating towards the download. I am sure I am being stupid and it is glaringly obvious!
ReplyDeleteThank you, and no problem. First, you click the link on the bottom left that reads "Popcorn@320." It opens to another window in Proton Drive, a completely safe host. You either click the blue download button right under where it says "This file is too large to preview" or just click "Download" in the drop-down menu on upper right. And that's it. Enjoy!
DeleteMany thanks George. You are a star!
DeleteYou're welcome! Please enjoy.
DeleteHi George,
ReplyDeleteI'm new here,
I got some of these Popcorn Mania compilations through some popcornfriends of mine.
But i missed some volumes of this beautiful series.And a little search on google brought me to your blog. It's just amazing when lookin' around what a beautiful collection you shate over here with us. Thanks for all (and especially the missing volumes of this "popcorn Mania" series.
THNX, GRTS & KEEP UP THE GOOD VIBES
Thank you kindly BaDmutti! I originally had no plans doing any 'Popcorn' mixes. I think it was "Muske" who requested it about three years ago. At the time, I didn't know popcorn had its own thing/genre. I've seen the comps in the past, and recognized the tunes, and figured it was just a series. Anyway, up to 18 mixes and probably more to come. Thank you again.
DeleteFinally getting to this, volume 18 and am loving this entire series (as you know) and also all the Doo Wop. The Deep cut ones are especially fun for me. Been quiet, but it doesn't mean I haven't been enjoying the work you do! Great job! BTW, I am especially pissed off at you. Now I am having to listen to much too much Max Webster (and Kim Mitchell) since you led me down THAT rabbit hole. I'm making my own pick of that all because of your introduction.
ReplyDeletelol, thx Pol. btw, I will not apologize for Max Webster & Kim, lol. I'll keep watch for your mix but you can't go wrong with any of their tracks.
