Booned

Step right up see the main attraction 

Form a line she's a sight to see 

Come up close and watch the action 

First in line stands right behind me

 

Although the shots of a naked Pat Boone were taken back in the 50's, they were never actually published in LIFE magazine.  Tamer ones appeared in the magazine, and although these were taken, they were never actually published and added, then discovered in the Time LIFE vault.  Every few years, they seem to surface and make a temporary splash on-line.

The images did just that last year, and I thought about a post.  I then began to see them pop-up everywhere.  That, along with a bit of research on Mr. Boone, had me deciding not to bother. Reading about his anti-gay views was enough to ditch the piece.  

The main reason not to bother however, was more about connection. I usually post about and actor or performer that I've seen, heard, or enjoyed.  Although I may have as a kid, I didn't really have any memory of ever seeing Boone on TV of film or even hearing him sing.  Then... about a month ago... I finally did.  Check out more on the NEXT PAGE HERE:
