Man o' man, mi amici... I thinks we need to kick this swingin' season off with a COOL COOL & BOUNCY little jam! A tune that will REALLY shake off those wintery webs & gets us in a "sunshinin' state of mind"! 

Ok, Ok, Ok...Let's get a wee bit silly for this special Serenade, pallies! 

We'll start with a jumpin' drum beat...add some maniacal backup singin'... mix in a touch of Dean's sweet sweet Italian type croonin'...shake it all up...real good...& pour us a TALL, COOL, REFRESHIN' glass of "Tik A Tee Tik A Tay"!!! Ha! 

Now THAT'S a concoction to get ANYONE flyin'! I'm buzzin' just thinkin' 'bout it! Hahaha!!! 

OK, my Dino-diggin' Spring chickens...I'm ready! Are youse?! GREAT! 


So as my pops, Big John G, would say..."Shake it...Don't break it"! Haha!! 


I'm pourin' up shots of Dino, today! Drink em' up, my friends!
