This Chilly Willy from 1967, which illustrates the age old tension between rock & roll, authority, and shameless commerce, has emerged as Twins A&B's top pick. Doin' the mukluk bop ...
I am not sure the place you are getting your information, but good topic. I needs to spend some time learning more or figuring out more. Thanks for excellent information I used to be looking for this information for my mission.
“Being is becoming,” and if we’re not “becoming,” we’re probably not doing much “being” either. This blog was started in a half-assed attempt at self-excavation. I have at least two unusual personality traits. The first is that I’m abnormally comfortable with ambiguity. I can happily muck about in the gray areas for years on end. This is probably why I love Seattle. The other is that I have a completely unrealistic belief in my own agency, which I tend to act upon. This blog has changed my life in more ways than I ever imagined. As my job as ED of a activist newspaper sold by homeless people, my vision for organizing, my thinking as a teacher, my history as a working-poor loser turned middle-class “advocate,” and my life as a parent swirled about me, this blog has been a path toward the center. We live in dangerous times, and the seductions to an easy, half-lived life of anesthetized materialism are all around. I have come to understand that my work is to be a revolutionary, both out in the world and within myself, turning over what is old, rotten, stale, and repressive, and building for a future where we can all find happiness and have the things we truly need.

I loved this song growing up!!!
CHILLY WILLY MUKLUK BOP
I got a gal, she’s an Eskimo
Way up north, where the cold winds blow
Lives in a house made of ice and snow
But is she cold? Oh no no no.
CHORUS
Shuffle on the tundra
Slip and slide and hop
Twist and jerk in rhythm
Do the mukluk bop!
I take her out for a dog sled ride
I holler mush! Sit by her side
We cuddle up, temperatures low
But is she cold? Oh, no no no.
We dance all night
That’s six months long
She’s dressed up in a big sarong
And a big smile, not much I know
But is she cold? Oh, no no no.
CHORUS
Shuffle on the tundra
Slip and slide and hop
Twist and jerk in rhythm
Do the mukluk bop!
Life is a ball with an Eskimo
Dance until dark when the lights are low
Doin’ the bop when it’s five below
But is she cold? Oh, no no no.
CHORUS
Shuffle on the tundra
Slip and slide and hop
Twist and jerk in rhythm
Do the mukluk bop!

I am so happy you did this. The song is genius, and I've thought about transcribing it, but the obsession never extended quite that far.
Thank you, thank you. I always wanted to cover this song in my band. It's such a childhood relic. You are awesome!
Texas Songwriter Townes Van Zandt based his song "Two girls" on the Chilly Willy Mukluk Bop...
