Something happened to my radio station, perhaps it's John Lee Hooker's fault.

Today is his birthday:

Now, Carlos Santana:

Glad Setanta is alright. Smile

Looking back at happier times now.

Miss you euroGeorge. He said that this was my theme song:

Incidentally, I didn't change the color of my hair; it changed itself. Smile

Today is Ray Bradbury's birthday and he did fabulous science fiction stories.

He wrote the script for Moby Dick. (miss you yitwails) sniff, sniff:

As most of us know, this is an allegory:

"when one seeks revenge; others have to pay for it."

Where are all the music lovers and poets?

I know you're out there somewhere:

I know that I have done this one before, but it's worth a second play:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNwmHHs9N_4

and the lyrics are a poem:

Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Every morning you greet me
Small and white clean and bright
You look happy to meet me
Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever
Edelweiss,Edelweiss
Bless my homeland forever.

Ah, I wish other countries had been with us today.

Saying good afternoon with three songs. Sorry Van. I look back at happier
times. Smile

First Van the Man:

@George,
Nice, but I grew up on the Gail Storm version.

Good SUN day morning from here in our Florida radio station.

Good to see my long time friend Roger back with us.

Latin George, I appreciate your comment on Van and really enjoyed Why do Fools Fall in Love. Then I remember What Kind of Fool Am I because I sang that on stage so long ago.

Two songs for today here. First, our hymn for Sunday:

Now, a birthday guy:

In memory of my mum who just passed away today. She was a great Glenn Miller fan.

Once again I'm calling. Where is France; where is Scotland; where is England?

Ah, it's Sunday, so they are all in church. Smile

Here's another reason for calling. It's all the sinners out there.

Now, dear Bobby doing an oldie:

I guess my calling worked. So sorry about your Mom, England. I know that one by Glen Miller. Pennsylvania 65 ooo.

First, Viva

You've probably never seen Jake Thackeray before.

Another English eccentric. We've got thousands.

Good Monday morning from our Florida radio station.

Hey, MACtag, Thanks for the introduction to that eccentric guy. Love to learn here. Ah, he was gone too soon as well.

Here's a great performer for today:

I notice another birthday man, and my late husband used to say:

You sir ara fat. Smile

Now, Andre again:
