It's my Pop's birthday today, so instead of waiting until Father's Day, here are some Pop or Papa songs. I called my father: Pop. I was called Papa and both of us were called Pap for short. So here are some songs with those in the title. I like this pick, because it goes all over the place. I may pick a few different for Father's Day, but you'll have to wait and see. If you tried to make this in something like Spotify, they would not have all these songs. So you can get them here. And yes, that is my pop on the cover.

You've pretty well covered it. "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" is the big winner for me. A few suggestions for a volume two - The Monkees' Papa Gene's Blues; The Rivingtons' Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow; Sweet's Poppa Joe.
ReplyDeleteAll great suggestions! And I love the Monkees...
