Good morning from our Florida radio station.

Been having a lot of problems with the equipment here. Anyone surprised?

I think Window ate it. Smile

Three songs for today.

First, Roy. As I have noted, the most powerful thing that a man can do is cry.

@tsarstepan,
ah, my long time Brooklyn friend, I really enjoyed Postal Service doing Recycled Air. You always introduce us to great music. I didn't know them, but happy now that I do. Smile

Well, It's Veterans Day today, and since my family were military vets, here is a salute to them:

RealJohnBoy was a Vietnam vet. <sniff>

Where are all of my friends? Smile

Going to say good afternoon with two songs. First Debbie Reynolds:

Now Julie Andrews:

Thinking of my dear friend Brucie today who survived the Korean War and died in the hospital of old wounds received there. His wife Jo was by his aide.

<sniff>

From Letty with love to the world and a thanks to tsar.

Good morning? not really, y'all, it's rather dense here:

Three tributes for today. First Rodin:

I know him best for The Thinker:

Now, inspired by my friend Roger who got a free breakfast for Veterans Day but had to pay for his coffee:

I love legends as all of you know. Here's another:

Well, I know you're out there, dear friends.

I know Robert Gentle came from Brazil, and I was thinking about coffee.

Another heart,y'all. It doesn't matter about disco, what matters is her great voice:

Glad my daughter is here as she has made an appointment to get my phones working again.

Wonder where Latin George is?

Well, I'm back, but my back is a bit sore so I'm saying good afternoon with three songs.

First, thinking of edgar who created this new forum for me:

Now, dear Perry:

and a lovely classical version of his song:

@George,
That version is quite good but I like Julie London's (smokin' hot) version better, FWIW.
A lot can be said for Sarah Vaughn's, too.

Another one of her wonderful interpretations is this version of Misty. Backing instrumentals are top notch, too:

@Ragman,
I just re-listened to Peggy's version...and I take it back. Her version is great and these two are just different. Love them both - a lot!

Good Friday morning from our radio station here in Florida. It's bright and sunny, but breeze less here.

Hurry back Latin George. I loved Peggy Lee's Black Coffee as well as Dinah's Sept in the Rain.

Hey, Mr. Photographer, Julie London's Misty was fantastic.

Olivier 5, Yep, A and M may have said it right about that song.

Dean says it differently, however:

Now two songs that confuse me. Anyone surprised? Smile

It's this guy's birthday:

I never used to like Elvis Presley, but I've changed my mind now.

Here he is doing a golden oldie:
