Stand by Me
I have always been a fan of the music of Leiber & Stoller. My husband & I have seen “Smokey Joe’s Cafe” multiple times. 4 for him, 3 for me. As a matter of fact, we just saw a local performance of “Smokey Joe’s” THIS Saturday at the StageDoor Theatre in Coral Springs.
Jerry Leiber & Mike Stoller wrote songs for the likes of Elvis, Bobby Darin, The Coasters and so many more. Their music is a constant presence in our culture with hits including: Kansas City, On Broadway, Jailhouse Rock, Spanish Harlem, Love Potion #9, YaketyYak and Stand by Me.
“Stand by Me”, as performed on this video, has even more significance today than ever before..
