WA2K Radio is now on the air, Part 3

Okay, last month I gave you the boys that invented California. This is where NASCAR came from.

Good morning from a rather dark and dusky weather here in our Florida radio station.

Roger, welcome back my long time friend, and hurry back as well. Had no idea that Robert doing Thunder Road was the beginning of NASCAR. Were the boys that invented California The Eagles?

Well, y'all, it's Sunday here and this creator notes, Elvis will never die, just as I observed about Nat Cole.

back later dear friends.

Inspired by Latin George, Here's a great song. I became fascinated with Hawaii when I read James Michener's book.

Now, "the singing ranger"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Qm6NYz1bHg

I remember The Yitwails via this one as well.

Good Morning, Bang Bang!

Morgan, great girl show. Loved the title Bang Bang.

Wasn't there a song called Bang, Bang, My Baby shot me dead?

Here's a birthday guy, y'all.

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

Oops, Morgan, that should have been "my baby shot me down."

Now, two versions of a wonderful hymn.

First, The Browns:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7cICbP8hUM

Now, the original by "the little sparrow"

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

Just a reminder to our listeners and contributors. In order to maintain the format of a radio station, we don't use the rating system.

I did Grease last evening because I have BILL they're multiplying.

Going to say good afternoon with Andrea and a beautiful hymn for Sunday.

From Letty with love to the world

Morning Ms Letty,Summer's saying goodbye and Autumn has arrived

Good Monday morning here, my cockney friend. Ah, I love Nat doing The September song and as we have noted he will continue to live through his music.

A couple of songs from our Florida radio station.

First, a famous ranger.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4qDSvdwL0s

There really was a lone ranger, but he was an Afro American law man.

Now, a birthday guy:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnmhQ1MuLxs

Leonard Cohen if you please.
https://youtu.be/xPrsvqG-uEA

Ah, my long time friend, welcome back. Love If You Please by Leonard, especially the chorus in the background.

Here's one to match, plus another of a sad birthday gal.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEa8AL9Uh4s

Now, Amy:

as I have often observed, alcohol is the worst drug out there and it's available.

Poor Amy

Looking back at happier times now when Tsar wanted poetry for the seasons of A2K.

First, a rolling stone:

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

Now, the poem that I wrote:

I said hello to autumn in the glade,
When first I saw the leaves come tumbling down.

Her garments were from changing leaves all made,
And golden rod her bright and shinning crown.

She made a hazy sky with just one look,
And thurned the thistles to a whirling mass.

The ripened apples fell in every nook,
And grapes turned pruple even as she passed.

Well, y'all, we've had our poem for today, how about two versions of the same song.

First, Sting:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLVq0IAzh1A

Now, Celtic woman:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXPqCv9dV6g

I never hear her that I don't think of EuroCelticYankee. Dear EuroGeorge.

well, time for me to say good afternoon now, and I think that I shall do so with two songs.
First, another Irish ballad:

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

Now, Andrea sings the song from The Phantom of the Opera.
(there really was an Eric, but he was born with deformities just as "the boy king")

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZTsIljP9RQ

Great having Tsar, Morgan, and Barry with us. Perhaps Latin George tomorrow.

From Letty with love to everyone here.

I am so happy that someone in Brooklyn likes me. I simply don't understand why someone keeps voting down this III station.

Into the Woods was fabulous, dear tsar. It reminded me a bit of Hansel and Gretel.

Another memory of my sister who took me to see this one:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9WCV7sCa2k

Now, a birthday guy:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJCeX6VmIUM



and, y'all, The Bee Gees. Love this guy's voice:

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

There's nothing to understand some people just go on threads and vote everyone down. Some people litter/graffiti and engage in all sorts of pointless activity. Don't give them the satisfaction of letting them know you've noticed.

I played this guy a lot in the car recently.

well, my English friend, as I told one of the folks that I met in Cocoa Beach, since I got my master's degree in psychology, I'm interested in why certain people do what they do, but you are spot on, I need to just move on.

You sent me searching, pushman.

Frank Vincent Zappa(December 21, 1940 – December 4, 1993) was an American musician, songwriter, composer, and record and film producer. In a career spanning more than 30 years, Zappa composed rock, jazz, orchestral and musique concrète works. He also directed feature-length films and music videos, and designed album covers.

Frank doing Montana was fantastic.

Here are a couple of versions of a golden oldie. First, the instrumental:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tumJWUGBx0

now the vocal version:

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

Another great memory, y'all. When we went to New York and met Art Blakey. Here is the monk man doing the instrumental:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBrMWb6Wr8Q

Now, Ella. She had a fantastic range of three octaves:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zdiy0U3pmNk

Saying good afternoon with two songs:

First, inspired by "the monk man from New York". A daydream:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJMyXxiBR1Q

Now, "Gentleman Jim":

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4f21BVDBGY

Great having England with us today.

From Letty with love to the world
