WA2K Radio is now on the air, Part 3

Glad you liked Dolly and Dean. That remark about the college dean was funny.

Going to say good afternoon with three songs now.

First, a birthday guy and here is some info on him:

Clouds float by on a summer sky
Liam John Neeson, OBE (born 7 June 1952)[2] is an Irish actor. In 1976, he joined the Lyric Players' Theatre in Belfast for two years. He then acted in the Arthurian film, Excalibur (1981).

Great mix of music today on our radio.

From Letty with love to the world

p.s. I couldn't edit anything. Windows 8 again.

I tried to do this one to match edgar's Villagers.

I've seen the Bounty films and read Nordhoff and Hall's books. Interesting tales.
Good one with the Rose of Washington Square and Hank Snow too.

Here is Chuck Willis

A review of Buffalo Bill's Wild West show, printed as a facsimile. The language and attitudes suitably 19th Century.

Good morning to all from here in our Florida radio station.

edgar, thanks for your comments and Chuck doing Hang up My Rock and Roll Shoes was great.

Hurry back, Punch Man. Love those messages you have for us. We learn from them.

Three songs for the morning here, y'all. First a fabulous composers birthday and on gone too soon. (sniff)

That was a wonderful article, Izz.

Latin George, my long time friend, hope you enjoyed what I played.

If not, today is Nancy Sinatra's birthday, and you don't want her boots to walk all over you.

Here's a fantastic trio, y'all:

I know Latin George like this group:

Sorry I haven't been here earlier. My computer always starts out with frozen screens and no sound. After a time, it gets some better. Thought I would play my favorite Frankie Laine song while I can.

as you know, Mark, Windows 8 gives me all kinds of problems.

Love Frankie doing Midnight Gambler.

Guess I had better say good afternoon while everything is working.

Three songs now. First The Platters. What a fantastic range that one guy has:

Good evening, WA2K and welcome to the Graveyard Shift.

I'm still mellowed out from "Only You" played by Letty and "Smoke Gets in
Your Eyes", played for us by edgarblythe. You just can't go wrong with The
Platters!

Now I'm feeling like some jazz. How 'bout you?

Here's a lyricist with a terrific sense of humor.


Dave Frishberg -- Can't Take You Nowhere

Now let's change the mood from upbeat to . . . indigo.


Earl Hines -- Mood Indigo

Having a bit of fun with the adverts of the day. Sounds a lot like the complaints levelled at text talk.

A how are ye Miss Letty, being good and keeping well I hope.

Just popped in to wish you all a happy Bloomsday.
Bloomsday festival starts today and runs till Bloomsday itself, June 16th.

This is dedicated to your good self Miss Letty and of course A2K's Texas troubadour Edgar, or is it Mark.
I know Ed likes his Joyce.

My Pretty Jane.

I'm off now, into town to take in the Bloomsday pageantry.
Slán libh mo chairde.

Good sunny morning from our Florida radio station.

edgar/Mark Smoke Gets in Your Eyes was one of my favorites.

Latin George, glad we're still friends. My favorite by you was Mood Indigo.

Pushman, That quote was funny.

Welcome back and hurry back, euroGeorge. That quote was funny. Thanks for the smile.

Today is Johnny Depp's birthday and here are two songs by him.

First, Boom, boom, boom, boom:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BcIZJ5nY78

Now, Pirates of the Caribbean.

Not a whole lot into the Pirates of the Caribbean, letty.

Bloomsday is a comin'
When I get rich I plan to attend one year.
