The Buckinghams and Freddy Cannon--Memories of Minnesota, 1986

Minnesota is a favorite state for Buckinghams' concerts, and a particularly great concert was the Faribault County Fair , held July 26, 1986. Featuring The Buckinghams and Freddy "Boom Boom" Cannon, the concert was considered 'retro' as " Back to the 50s and 60s ". Today 'retro' is 'classic'. Sponsored by radio station KBEW-AM, whatever the event was part of the festival/fair heydey of the mid-80s. No matter how high the hair piled atop their heads, Carl, Nick, Bob, Bruce, and Tom, are ever much the same today as back in 1986.
