In 1958 Buddy Holly and the Crickets brought out 'Oh Boy' on a seven single record and I was totally crazy about this song. We were on the farm visiting my mother's other sister, Auntie Doris, who I was definitely not that fond of. She had a little transistor radio in huge farm kitchen. Whenever 'Oh Boy' was played, I used to jump up, grab Ian and start dancing round the kitchen (I was 10, he was 9). Auntie Doris got so fed up with us, she used to 'shoo' us out of the kitchen with her apron flapping at her waist. We danced out of the door, and continued jiving till the record finished, straining to hear it on the other side of the closed door. We must have danced to that song at least 4 times a day, thus driving everone mad. Why didn't they just join in?
