Bad Moon fits Vietnam, for sure. The war was ongoing when I served, but my ship did not go there until the next year after I was separated.

T For Texas is one of the greats of ole timey country, letty.

Jerry Lee Lewis

Good evening, WA2K, and welcome to the Graveyard Shift.

Tonight let's listen to songs transformed by funk.

Here's a Stones hit covered by Thelma Houston.


Thelma Houston -- Jumpin' Jack Flash

Now Jonathan Edwards covered by the Isley Brothers.
Bring it on!


The Isley Brothers -- Sunshine Go Away

Whoo. Time to kick off these lime green platform shoes and head for bed.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lohengrin_(opera)

Good morning to all from here in our Florida radio station. The weather is odd again but that's typical of here:

edgar/Mark thanks for your comment and personal acknowledgement, and Jerry Lee's Urban Stomp was great. Hurry back, buddy.

Latin George, I think we all know what the graveyard shift is. love Sunshine Go Away Today as well as well as Jumpin' Jack Flash. You hurry back as well, my friend.

Well, today is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's birthday and in my mind's eye I can still see my one minute dream of me standing on the tor with my arms reaching up to heaven.



Izz with a y, I know about Loengrin. More music on that one later.

First The Hound of the Baskervilles:

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is best known for the Sherlock Holmes stories. This book, published in 1902, is about a ghostly mad-dog that has haunted a family for hundreds of years. When Sherlock Holmes looks into the mysterious death of Sir Charles Baskerville, strange events begin to take place in the creepy countryside. The story stars the Sherlock Holmes, whom the author based on detective-like professors he had as a medical student in Scotland. Holmes is known throughout the world as a master solver of criminal riddles. Dr. Watson, who is Holmes's best friend, is also the narrator of the Sherlock Holmes stories.

Here's the trailer of the movie, y'all:

Now, the music of Wagoner:

Now, for our English friend:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqk4bcnBqls

I guess we know that WWagoner is pronounced Vogner.

Sorry that the song played twice, y'all. Windows 8 wouldn't allow me to delete it.

I think Izz with a y will appreciate this pum:

My dear friend Polly (RIP) when told that here brakes weren't in good shape said:

That's ok. I'll just put it in low and grin.

I've read the Sherlock Holmes stories, at least most of them. Watched a number of the movies and TV series. I listened to it as a radio series when I was small. There are people who think he was a real person.

Troubles

Welcome back, Mark. Love Troubles by Harry.

Yep, many folks think that Sherlock was real.

Here's a great man's birthday, y'all.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3m1JFYldfI

Calling all countries. Is McTag the only Scotsman here?

While we await our listeners comment on that famous man's birthday.

Let's here two songs for the afternoon here:

First, David Bowie:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrERLeFseDA

Now, another birthday man who did Martin Luther King:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFFVCt5jhro

Well, y'all, guess I'm a trio again. I know that Latin George likes this one.

and when people did a graveyard monitoring at night, it was to see if any bells were heard which meant people in their coffins were still alive.

Good afternoon, everyone, and still wondering where all my friends are.

from Letty with love to the world.

It's your hours, letty. By the time most of us are able to spend a little time on the radio, you are already retired for the day. Not a criticism - an observation.

The Coasters

Good evening, WA2K, and welcome to the Graveyard Shift.

Letty played a great number by The Manhatten Transfer. I love their
harmonies.

Edgar's selection from the Coasters made me want to do the Stroll. No one
has any idea what that is these days.

Tonight let's consider popular instrumentals that were based on
classical music.

First, a 1961 version of Edvard Grieg's "Piano Concerto in A Minor."


Kokomo -- Asia Minor

We've got a member called Bumblebee Boogie. Here's one with a name
almost the same. It's a take on Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's "Flight of the
Bumblebee".


B. Bumble & The Stingers -- Bumble Boogie

Despite women's suffrage and a more multicultural society, some things never change.

Good Saturday morning to all of you here.
edgar/Mark knows why I often leave in the afternoon. The Coasters doing Young Blood was a good one.

Latin George, Thanks for your comment on Manhattan Transfer, my friend, and I love that modernized version of Greig by KoKoMo. Also like Bumble Boogie by The Stingers. (great name for those bees)

I never hear the name rooster that I don't think of my son. We called him rooster tail because he had a little sprig of hair on the top of his head.

Two songs to begin the day. First, one to match Latin Georges Greig adaptation:

Now, a rooster song:

Well, I'm Bach. Where are our poets and music lovers?

Here's a tribute to a great birthday guy:
