The Taters perform at Mason District Park
Annandale Arts videographer Bob Kovacs recorded a couple of songs performed by the Taters Sunday night at the amphitheater in Mason District Park.
Kovacs calls the first song, “Spend a Little Time,” a pleasant mid-tempo rocker that sounds like an Elvis song from around 1962.
The second number, “Thingamajig,” was written by prolific country/swing songwriter Cindy Walker. There’s a legendary story about how in 1940 when she was a 22-year-old unknown from Texas, she walked into a Hollywood studio office to see if Bing Crosby would record one of her songs. He did, and she had a long, successful career, ending up in multiple songwriting halls of fame.
The free Spotlight by Starlight series continues at Mason District Park and Ossian Hall Park through the end of August.
These guys were really good. I hope they come back next year.
