Hüsker Dü?

No, not the band. I didn’t even know there was a band named Hüsker Dü.

What I remember is the game, relentlessly promoted by K-Tel.

Back in 1974 or thereabouts, these K-Tel ads were a source of constant amusement; I used to joke that Hüsker Dü meant “up yours” in Sicilian.

I’m so glad that some of these gems were preserved for posterity. Isn’t that amazing!

  1. And here I sit remembering “Husker Du” as a weekly TV show on NRK from the Seventies and Eighties, where a few dozen seniors would get together in studio and sing favourite songs from their younger years. The reason I remember it at all must owe to the fact that our channel hopping in those days was restricted to just that one channel, and the children’s programme would be on just afterwards. Talk about bridging the generation gap!
