This is the Anthem of the world; Jan Peerce's Blue Bird of Happiness,
is real music with a voice to grab your hart, What ever happened to good
clean music? What a voice ? We played
the 78 rpm record on a hand winder at sea,God I remember the words now, Our skipper played it on the P.A,Sytem day & night,There was always some1to crank the handel, On the oppisit side was Mario Lanzua doeing BECAUSE OF YOU
Through good times & bad times the
The Blue Bird of Happyness has sustained
a generation of warriors; Gave hope to
millions of GOLD STAR Families who gave
there HUSBANDS~FARTHERS& SON'S TO WWII,
And KOREA, I'm old as dirt now!tear's
roll down my cheeks listening to those
REAL songs! And I fill guilty that the
post war generations of kids had to listen to tons of horce menure that was
called music, That was not even close to
real music, Thank you so very much for
giveing me time to VENT, I will order the
B.B.O.H, by THE BEST OF THE BEST

Representative of Jan Peerce's Best The selections were representative of Jan Peerce's best. Peerce's style does not get in the way of the musical selections. The sound quality is good to very good, considering that the originals were not recorded in a low distortion or high fidelity medium.

A song that redeems life I grew up listening to my parent's 78rpm record of this recording: The Bluebird of Happiness. Through changing careers, marriages and divorces and marriage, and deaths of a parent and sibling and friends, this song brings my feet to earth and my heart into the clouds. Even at 58, I still sing the song when low or up, and my students seem to appreciate that music can uplift and not just entertain and amuse.

Bluebird Of Happiness
$24.45 Although they have had their songs covered, Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings are not known as a songwriters the way that Bacharach/David or Lennon and McCartney are. They were not known as professional songsmiths, nor were they bandleaders whose tunes were covered frequently even as their own band remained active. They are known as the leaders of the Guess Who, who had several huge hits with Bachman/Cummings songs in the '70s before the pair went their separate ways, with Bachman forming Bachman-Turner Overdrive (with C.F. Turner, naturally enough) and Burton Cummings launching a solo career. The 2006 release The Bachman-Cummings Songbook essentially acts as a greatest hits for all three projects, gathering the biggest hits from the Guess Who, BTO and Cummings on one disc.
