WA2K Radio is now on the air, Part 3

Did someone mention pirates.... Sorry. I was spacing out a bit.

Rickie Lee Jones - Pirates (1981)

another pirate

I just found this, good to see.

I'll try to behave myself re whom I address comments to.

I've missed the station and the people and, of course, the music.

tsar, Welcome back to you, Rickie Pirates was great.

Mark,/edgar. Love that one by July Collins.

Osso/jo. We all have bad days and good days.

Going to say good afternoon now.

This has been bird day on WA2K III.

Odd, I went outside to look at my egrets and there was a sparrow chirping on my roof top.

From Letty with love to everyone here.

Morning All, new edition of Punch out today.

(Racist language censored)

This is music from a new thriller movie called "The Loft." My daughter Katrina worked on the casting of this movie.

The style of music is "electropop." It is still worth listening to, though.

Good morning to all from a rather chilly radio station here in Florida.

Izz with a y, love that information from Punch, buddy.

Gurda, Great to see you here again and your daughter knows what is good. Didn't know The Loft, so thanks for the introduction and the music.

Two birthday guys today. First, "the king":

Now David Bowie:

Elvis's eightieth. This is a favorite of mine.

edgar/Mark, Oh What a Night it Was was a good one by the King.

This is one of my favorites by him and it's based on a poem by Alexander Pope.

and, y'all, another strange event. This was on Cold Case last evening:

Once again calling all poets, musicians, painters and music lovers.

Today is this lady's birthday, but first some Info:

Yvette Carmen Mimieux was born in Los Angeles, California to a French father and Mexican mother. Before her film career began, Mimieux was one of four finalists from a beauty contest picked by Elvis Presley (while he was filming Jailhouse Rock, 1957) who were invited to come to the set and compete for a bit role in the movie ("girl in bathing suit"). She and the other girls modelled their suits (and figures); Mimieux was not selected.

Now her tribute:

I remember her name very well, but didn't recall what she's done.

Bobby Blue Bland

Hey, Mark, you sent me searching, buddy.

Robert Calvin "Bobby" Bland, né Brooks, also known professionally as Bobby "Blue" Bland, was an American blues singer. Bland developed a sound that mixed gospel with the blues and R&B

Fantastic song by him so once again thanks again for the introduction.

Inspired by you, two versions of the same song.

First Lady Day. (Robert Gentle loved her)

Now, y'all, Ray:

Miss you neko nomad. He called me sweet heart. <sniff>

Good ones from Billie and Ray, letty. Here is another Ray Charles
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vS7pLnj0Dus

Thanks, Mark, for the comment and personal acknowledgement. I Love You So Much It Hurts Me by Ray was great.

Going to say good afternoon with two songs. (dear Glenn)

Incidentally, y'all, those are flutes in the background.

From Letty with love to everyone here.

I was just listening to Glenn on the radio yesterday.

Harry Belafonte

A minimalist kind of number.
I like it. I hope you do.


Ingrid Michaelson -- The Way I Am

A cartoon from Punch dated 8th Jan 1887 which tells us that even then fashions changed. As the writing is obscured I'll fill it in underneath.

"HERE'S A HOW-D'Y'-DO!"

First picture 1787. Second picture 1887
A CHAPTER ON THE EVOLUTION OF DEPORTMENT.

Or it could just as easily be a chapter on the growth of bottoms. Who would have thought Kim Kardashian's appearance could be described as Victorian.

I'm so glad you got to the bottom of this issue. I wouldn't want to have had to go to the Deportment store to find this out.

Good Friday morning from our radio station in Florida.

edgar, Love that one by Harry. Didn't know it so thanks again for the introduction. Hurry back, my friend.

Latin George, you hurry back as well, and Ingrid's The Way I Am reminded me of Billy Joel's Just the Way You Are.

Ah, izz with a y, Love that first one, and it reminded my of "May I Kiss Your hand Madame." Incidentally, everyone, Izzie is fine thank the good Lord.

That one about The Deportment, I didn't understand, but I'm certain that it had to do with women during The Victorian age who had bustles, right?

God to see you back, Ragman.

Well, it's Friday here, so here are two songs:

First, a great one awakening:

Now, a tribute to a birthday gal:

I love those two girls, letty.
