WA2K Radio is now on the air, Part 3

Seems to be a trend.

Hey, Letty, I love Django Reinhart. I didn't know anything about him until my
son gave me a CD for Christmas. Bang! Instant fan.

Anyone else in the mood for blues guitar?

Ah, my long time friend, I love Buddy doing that one. Hope you liked Sweet Georgia Brown.:

Anyone remember Queen? Today is Freddy Mercury's birthday. RIP

He wrote this one:

Welcome back, push man. Loved exodus by Mr. Dred locks. As you know, I like reggae as well.

Calling all poetry and music lovers. Where are you hiding?

Love this poem:


Dreams - Poem by Langston Hughes
Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.

Well, y'all, here's a surprise by "the king".

Going to say good afternoon now as I not feeling too well.

Al Jolson did that one as well.

From Letty with love to the world.

The Boston Sunday Globe did an interview with Judy Collins.

Q. You’re credited with discovering Leonard Cohen. How’d that happen?

A. He came to see me in 1966. I knew about him from a friend who talked
about a poet from Canada she went to school with. He came to my apartment
on 79th Street; he knocked on the door, and I opened it and thought: “Well, I
don’t care if he can’t write songs!” [Laughs] He sang me “Suzanne” and
“Dress Rehearsal Rag” and “The Stranger Song.” . . . I fell in love with them. I
don’t presume to know why they’re great songs, but of course they’re great.


Judy Collins -- Suzanne

Q. What did you think of “Suite: Judy Blue Eyes” that Stephen Stills wrote
for you?


A. We [had broken up] and he wrote it to get me back, but it didn’t work.
[Laughs] It’s a great song; I was amazed to hear it. We’ve remained friends.

Crosby, Stills & Nash -- Suite: Judy Blue Eyes

Ah, my latin friend, welcome back. Love your explanation concerning Suzanne

Loved Crosby, Stills, and Nash doing Judy Blue Eyes.

Since today is Labor day, how about this one:

Today is Gloria Gaynor's birthday, and someone once told me that this was my theme song.

Well, I guess we all know about the day the music died, and it's Buddy Holly's birthday.
