Thanks again for keeping us on the air, dear friend. As you know, I always appreciate your comment and personal acknowledgement.

Didn't know Come Softly to Me, so thanks again for the introduction.

Another softly, Texas.

I guess you know from whence that one came.

I know the song, but have never watched the movie.

Chuck Berry

Texas, I love Sweet Sixteen by Chuck.

That song came from The Godfather movie. I think Al Pacino was the last one to be filmed.

Here's an Irish song to match Chuck's

Jackie Wilson. I remember enjoying the new sound of this song when I was at school.

Reet Petite

Ah, I miss England, France, and Scotland. Why there's our Mac doing a great Jackie Wilson song. Love it.

Odd, y'all, This Romeo and Juliet theme is also one used for Phantom of the Opera;

Johnny Cash
Take this Hammer

Texas, I thought that one by Johnny Cash was about John Henry.

Here's on about that steel driving man.

Another good version of John Henry - There must be a hundred of them

Here is Laura, by Leadbelly

Sometimes even a Boston guy can be in a certain state of mind . . .


Billy Joel & Tony Bennett -- New York State Of Mind

Loved that one by Lead Belly, edgar.

Latin George, A New York State of Mind by Billy and Tony was great.

Incidentally, there is a big statue of John Henry just outside the Big Bend Tunnel in Talcott, W.Va. Great legend.

One more quote from Caesar.
Cassius:

The fault, dear Brutus lies not in the stars, but in ourselves.

Going to say good late afternoon with Andrea doing The Phantom of the Opera.

I think most of us know that there really was an Eric, but like the boy king, he was born with deformities.

Great having England and Scotland with us today.

Perhaps Ireland and France with us tomorrow.

From Letty with love to all of you here.

Véronique Sanson -- Allah (1988)


Délivre-les du mal, Allah.
Pourquoi le feu et le tonnerre ?
Mais c'est de toi qu'on se sert,
C'est en ton nom qu'on se bat, Allah.
À quoi te sert d'avoir un nom ?

Morning all, today's quotations.

Small showers last long, but sudden storms are short.
Richard II Act II Sc I

Rouse up thy youthful blood, be valiant and live.

Good morning all from our Florida radio station.

That Hollow Crown hit me as being a king who was against monarchy.
