Dutch ladies

De Selvera's - Oh my darling Clementine (offline)
Wilma and I used to play this song on parties a lot, but our version was very different. First of all it was a waltz like it should be and not a kind of semi-sirtaki
Patricia (Paay) - Wat moet ik doen? (offline)
I'm not sure if our Starsister/make-up queen wants to be reminded of this, I don't know if my visitors do actually, but hey ... there are no restrictions in genre at Splusp!

Shirley - Georgia (offline)

Werner Müller und sein Orchester - Surf-Medley (offline)

Labels: dutch popstars, nostalgia

NEE!

"When you took this record in your hands the strange title: No! will probably have astonished you! This "no" however is not an ordinary "no". It is a clear statement against the violation of human rights such as occur daily in the republic of South Africa."

There are some people that make me cheerfull instantly when I see them. I was happily surprised to see Martina in foreign eyes in one of our local news papers. I know her as one of the singers of a choir I used to conduct. In this story she tells she came to study in The Netherlands when she was only 15 years old and that she notices how "dutch" she has become when she visits her native country Czechia after all these years. She feels very much at home in Zwolle.

Splogman brings you two unique recordings of this charming singing acupuncturist. I remember she wasn't too happy with the recordings herself and I understand why: she can do much better, especially nowadays. Still I love these renditions.
