  ARB Productions - The Crew Cuts
The Crew Cuts are also part of our "Lost in the 50's" tour.
Many have recorded this song, but the Crew Cuts' version is the most remembered and the most identified as the first true swing to a rock and roll song!
The Crew Cut song, "Sh-Boom" started with the unlikely collection of such syllables as:hey, nonny ding-dong, a-lang, a-lang, a-lang, boom ba-do and ba-do, babob, eh...

  Retroland - Crew cuts / flat tops
The crew cut can also be called the flat top when the hair at the top of the head is grown out and cut in a straight, flat style.
Crew cuts were generally not for individualists and rebels, they were for boys who respected authority and took no chances for looking like a hooligan with long hair.
The crew cut was as styled as a buzz cut could get-it left at least a smidge of hair to work with on top.

 Crew cut - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A crew cut is a type of haircut in which the hair is cut fairly short.
The crew cut was adopted by the United States armed forces during World War II, and became a civilian fashion for men throughout the 1950s.
The cut was felt to be "clean-cut, athletic, and patriotic." [1] By the mid-1960s, the crew cut was generally seen as a mark of conservative political opinions, as opposed to the longer hair styles favored by those less trusting of the government.

 Crew Cuts - CD The best of The Crew Cuts
The Crew Cuts would frequently find their names on the Top 20 throughout the 1950's by repeating the 'Sh-Boom' formula with songs like The Penguins' 'Earth Angel', which went to number three, 'Gumdrop', 'Angels In The Sky', 'Mostly Martha' and 'Young Love'.
As the Crew Cuts mined the RandB back catalogue and brought the ghettoized RandB into the white rock and roll mainstream (albeit with watered down versions), The Crew Cuts would never outsell the sources of their new found inspiration.
During the mid-50s, the Crew Cuts presented the listening public with well-produced and listenable versions of many songs that became top tunes because of their treatment of them.

 THE CREW CUTS
The Crew Cuts were bridging the gap between the big-band sound and the RandB music that was sweeping the country, and they were reaping the benefits of stardom, as well.
Some revisionists have claimed, dubiously, that the Crew Cuts actually helped pave the way for the acceptance of rock in the mainstream by giving all those doo-wop songs a far greater audience than they could have found if they were “ghettoized” in the RandB community.
After a while, however, the Crew Cuts themselves were being widely outsold by their sources; "Young Love" (a cover, naturally, although this time of a country classic by Sonny James) was their last Top 20 hit in early 1957.

The Crew Cuts were regular visitors to the Top 20 over the next couple of years, repeating the "Sh-Boom" syndrome with songs like "Earth Angel," their second-biggest hit at number three (though nobody remembers the Crew Cuts' version today, the Penguins' original having long established supremacy with audiences and on oldies stations).

 Passengers feeling airline crew cuts
Attendants also fret over job security, possible pay cuts and even the viability of their airlines.
And with good reason: Last month, US Airways said it was laying off 890 of its 5,940 flight attendants and said it would staff most longer flights with the minimum number of attendants required.
Since the terrorist attacks, American Airlines has cut 2,751 of its 28,000 flight attendants and said last week that it will lay off 3,100 more on July 1 to avoid bankruptcy.

 SPACE.com -- The Science of Space Station Alpha: Following Budget Cuts Will It Remain World Class?
Scientists hoping to use the station as a cutting-edge research platform are suddenly unsure how much science the ISS will be able to accomplish.
The uncertainty arose last week when the agency announced that several key elements of the station -- including the U.S. habitation module and the crew return vehicle -- would be removed from the station's "blueprint" until further notice.
What this means to NASA's plans for scientific research on board the space station is still largely unknown, but with the ongoing program originally tailored for an eventual crew of six people difficulties, and alterations, will inevitably crop up.

When I was at MIT, as a rower in the heavyweight men’s crew, we always hoped that rowing (which is far older as an intercollegiate sport than most, and does not fit the model of the big-money sports) would never be in the NCAA, because their one-size-fits-all system would hurt rowing at smaller schools.
A 21-week season is not long enough to teach novices to row effectively or to train a varsity crew.
Rowing was one of the best parts of my time at MIT, and I hope the women succeed in their petition to Division I status so they can keep up the terrific program they have built over the last twenty years.
