WA2K Radio is now on the air, Part 3

Heard this on my ride in this morning.


Robert Plant & Alison Krauss -- Gone Gone Gone

Great find.

Van Morrison - Philosopher's Stone

Good morning from a chilly radio station.

Latin George, I'm glad that you weren't Gone, Gone, Gone.

Ah, my Roman friend, I love that one by Van the Man, and here is one to match.

Also, a looking back at happier times, too when a girl friend and I sang this together on the radio.

Van is a very good artist. It took a long time for me to appreciate that.
I didn't know the other song you played.

Terry Stafford

Ah, Mr. Creator, thanks for the comment and personal acknowledgement.

Didn't know Terry doing Suspicion, but thanks for the introduction. He was great.

Thinking of Ursula and her Swede who were at the Cocoa gathering, and she loves this guy, as do I.

I love the Boss too, but then who doesn't?

You're right, my Roman friend.

I never used to like Elvis, but I've changed over the years. Here's a sad one by him.

Don't look down, Elvis.

Does anyone remember Jack London? Today is his birthday:

Ah, I miss our Tsar in Brooklyn. I hear from Bert Lee there as well.

My first introduction to Don McClean:

Poor Janis Joplin. <sniff>

Back later, y'all.

Here I am again. Saying good afternoon with two songs.

First Oscar and his wild, wild, ways:

It used to be illegal to be gay in those days:

My daughter loved The Happy Prince by him.

Now, in honor of our creator:

From Letty with love to everywhere here.

Thanks for Deepina, letty.
Oscar managed to flaunt it anyway.

Bella Rosa

Good Wodin's day, edgar, and I love the way you abbreviate things. You're right about the wild man. Love Harry doing Bella Rosa.

Two songs for today. First a country boy:

Today is his birthday:

Now, from The Thomas Crown Affair:

I like songs like Wayfaring Stranger.
There were two movies of the Thomas Crown thing.

a bit of sand and foam

I love Donovan doing Sand and Foam, Mr. creator. I think the original of the Thomas Crown had to do with a millionaire, etc. I tried to find a brief summary of the one that I showed, but no luck.

As you know, I love legends:

Ah, my long time friend, welcome back.

Loved that version of Cuckoo. Didn't know it, so once again thanks for the
introduction. My mom used to have a cuckoo clock.

Well, I've been searching again. I think the first one that I played was the millionaire one.

First some info on it:

Millionaire businessman-sportsman Thomas Crown (Steve McQueen) pulls off a perfect crime by orchestrating four men to rob $2,660,527.62 from a Boston bank, along with a fifth man who drives the getaway Ford station wagon with the money and dumps it in a cemetery trash can. None of the men ever meets Crown face-to-face, nor do they know or meet each other before the robbery. Crown retrieves the money from the trash can personally after secretly following the driver of the station wagon, then personally deposits the money into an anonymous Swiss bank account in Geneva, making several trips, never depositing the money all at once so as to not draw undue attention to his actions.

Now, here's the update:

When I was eleven years old, I sang Wayfaring Stranger at a primitive Baptist church, and some woman began crying and crying. It scared me, of course.

Here's a birthday guy, but first some info:

Best known for playing Legolas in the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit films and Will Turner in the Pirates of the Caribbean series, he has also appeared in such films as Troy, Kingdom of Heaven and New York, I Love You.
