Motherf**ker I'm Broke (obscure 50s music)
Музыка
Plucked out of vinyl obscurity and restored via ai music magic comes this obscure late 1950s song from Errol Pennywhistle.
The late 1950s weren’t kind to Doo Wop upstart Errol Pennywhistle. I’m Broke, his first vinyl record, never saw store shelves, instead being sent “accidentally” to a local landfill. “I spent days diggin’ every copy I could outta that garbage palace,” Errol stated in his statement to the local PD after being arrested for trespassing and theft. “How can you be arrested for takin' your own sh*t?” It would be months until Pennywhistle was back on the streets with records in hand, peddling the one by one from his cardboard box on street corners around Detroit. But like so many relationships, what started with pity eventually grew into a little something more. Pennywhistle developed a cult following, allowing him the opportunity to purchase more studio time from a reluctant Motown Records, who wouldn’t voluntarily back him until after his third release.

"You shouldn't smoke" part was so wholesome❤
"and it may not be the life for you, but I'm free, no one to answer to. Just kidding, I'm fucking screwed" I literally laughed so hard I almost began to choke
I remember back in 1956 playing this on the jukebox at the diner where I met my wife. Now I'm in a nursing home that smells like poop because my kids took my money and I'm singing this song once again.

i remember my grandfather pulling his old records down and pulling this beat up record out and playing this forgotten hit for me when i was a small lade. A classic.
One of his bests, I remember visiting the landfill and his record were still found to this day!
Very relatable how most people feel. I'm broke as a joke. 😞

True story: Errol Pennywhistle went to his local 7-11 store in 1961, and bought a few scratch off tickets, and he ended up winning 50000 dollars. Later on that year, a good friend told him about investing, and he invested 10k into a fledgling startup company called Amazon, and the rest as they say is history. BTW, Errol is not broke anymore.

😄This reminds me of the Ray Charles song, 'Busted'.
Grandad was notoriously racist in his day, but he always had a soft spot for Mr. Pennywhistle’s records. I like to think he helped make Grandad a better person with his inspiring music.
OMG. You got me laughing in my cubicle man.
The rhyming scheme of the verses is unironically so cool.

Fun fact: This is a cover of an obscure Sam Cooke song.

"... and my suits are NOT bespoke ..."
Nice backstory.
Beats all the music being played now.
What's the problem, Errol? Just arrange some job interviews, put on your suit and see what happens. No, wait . . .
Should make more records like this.
Why is everyone so mad about it being restored with AI? It’s not like it was WRITTEN by AI, it was made by a person, it’s just the distortion and scuffs on the vinyl that were edited out by the AI. (To my knowledge)
