“Crimson and Clover” / “Some Kind of Love” – Doyle’s Space: Music Hall of Fame – SOS Award

This “Stand Out Single” spent sixteen weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached number one in February 1969, remaining there for two weeks.

Released in late 1968, “Crimson and Clover” marked a dramatic artistic shift for Tommy James and the Shondells. Up to that point the group had built its reputation on energetic pop-rock hits such as “Hanky Panky,” “I Think We’re Alone Now,” and “Mony Mony,” but Tommy James wanted to move into a more psychedelic and atmospheric direction.

In Soccer, Why is the Field Called a “Pitch”?

Soccer inherited the term from the sporting vocabulary that developed in Britain during the nineteenth century.

The term “pitch” for a soccer field is one of those words that seems puzzling unless you know a little about the history of British sports. To most Americans, a soccer game is played on a field, while baseball is played on a diamond and football is played on a field or gridiron. In Britain, however, the word “pitch” has long been used for the prepared playing area of several sports, especially cricket, rugby, and association football (soccer).
