But When the Sun Comes Up…..

Dude in previous wedding photo I dubbed as ? has been identified as Jerry’s sister Joan’s date that day so we still aren’t sure who it is. 

But it did get me thinking about the most famous ? of all time –  Rudy Martinez.  You may know him as the lead singer in his band the Mysterians.  OK, so maybe you don’t know him by that, but I’m betting you know the song that they did.  It went to Number 1 in 1966 and has been ranked at #213 on Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time (click here.)  To which I would say that that is about 200 too low. 

Folks of a certain age here in the County will forever associate this song with Tall Timbers Tavern and the band The Montels.  If you’ve no idea what I’m talking about, ask your Mom or Dad and they’ll tell you all about it.
