Cora really likes to have music playing while she is spanking as she loves to use the rhythm in the song to time her swats. (I have a pretty good idea what the cover on a snare drum feels like.)
This time, the spanking took place in our kitchen (next to her 'Rack'). She asked me to turn on the FM radio. 'Louie, Louie' (Kingsmen's version) was starting to play on the classic rock station we often listen to. Now, if you know the song, the rhythm goes something like dum-dum-dum, dum-dum and so on. So I was getting five swats for every two bars. She started out with one of her leather paddles but quickly found it to be too flexible to keep up with the drummer. So she eventually found that the Spencer paddle worked quite well.
By the way, the Kingsmen's version of this song was recorded in a small recording studio in April, 1963. The boys only had enough funds to pay for an hour of studio time and had recorded another song first. There was only a few minutes of their time left and they cut 'Louie, Louie' in one take. Little did they know what was to come. The rather crude recording made the charts more than once, was banned in Boston, banned by the Governor of the state of Indiana and led to a controversy over the alleged 'obscenity' of the lyrics. This led to an investigation by the FBI and even J. Edgar became involved.
Its a very interesting story and I was fortunate to have seen this band play 'in person' several times and even purchased the original vinyl album (which is proudly still in my collection). I also sang and played this song with some of the bands I was with. And as far as the lyrics, well, growing up in Western Washington, we all heard the previous version by the Fabulous Wailers where the lyrics were perfectly intelligible (as were the Kingsmens', in my opinion) and certainly not obscene.
