WA2K Radio is now on the air, Part 3

Hope your head feels better, Letty.


I can see the sunshine's rays gleaming through the clear waters
Telling me you gotta hop in for this chapter's ride
There will always be better days
There will always be better days
There will always be better days


The Head and the Heart -- Library Magic

Winter is here, a time of long shadows.


Josh Ritter -- Long Shadows

Last day of the year. So long 2016.

Not much in the way of festivities for us tonight. We'll have some neighbors
in, drink beer, eat pizza and laugh a lot. It'll be fun.


Mark Olson & Gary Louris -- The Rose Society

Ah, dear friend, I jumped ahead a day of New Year's Eve.

Loved The Head and the Heart and Josh doing Long Shadows
as well as Mark Olson and Gary doing that Rose song.

As you know I love roses.

Taking a small break now. Back later, dear friend

Well, I'm back, dear friend, and once again Beth says Hi to you.

Saying good afternoon a bit early as I have a lot to do in our
Florida radio station.

Remembering happier time again.

I made more money singing on New Year's Eve than I did
all week teaching.

Love Perry Como:

Now, another rose:

Now, remembering dear Edgar Allan Poe: <sniff>

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8pVi9rDPfQ

We'll never know what happened to him; how strange
and he had bi-polar problems as well.

We used to use champagne to toast the new year, but not now;.

From Letty with love to the new world and the new year.

I loved "Roses of Picardy".

Poe was born in Boston. Here's a statue of him and the raven.

Happy New Year, WA2K!


Norah Jones -- Sunrise

Welcome back, dear friend. Glad you enjoyed those Roses.

I had forgotten that Poe was born in Boston, and The Raven is
the one that I did on TV.

enjoyed that other lady singing too.l

Here's a woman with a voice like Billie Holiday.
Maybe this will get Robert back with us.

Once again Let the Sunshine in. It's it is chilly here in our Florida
radio station.

I bet our George will like these two:

First a song based on a poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow:
today is his birthday.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dKJ75F3tj8

Now a wonderful one by "the man with the velvet voice"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aZEkpg4SU8

Naomi Clark - Diva was a bit too hip-hop for me.
But I liked the Fifth Dimension.

Ah, I missed Norah Jones Sunrise, dear friend. I wish I could do
those great photos too.

Saying good afternoon with two versions of Happy New Year:

Hope we'll have a better world.

From Letty with love and hope

I love to show visitors to Boston the route taken by Paul Revere and William
Dawes.

Matt Munro has quite the voice!

One from a group my youngest likes


Fleet Foxes -- Blue Spotted Tail

Good morning WA2K


The Ronettes -- I Can Hear Music

I lost my responses to you, dear friend.

I'll try again and hope they work.

I didn't read The Raven on TV it was at the old radio station in Virginia
where I first met my late husband and Dan Lucas. He had PD.

Hope these three golden oldies work. If they play again, I'm sorry.

First, Queen:

Now, the old lamp lighter:

The Raven:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NykmXl24qcc

Good morning back, dear friend.

Loved The Ronettes doing I Can Hear Music.

Here's another good morning song for you and all of us here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LdIL5WCso8

Hope you liked The Raven, dear friend and the morning song by
the guy from Oklahoma.

Do you remember Celeti Aida?

Here a marching song for her:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3w4I-KElxQ

In spite of it all, I think you're still my friend, George.

This is the last day of the holiday so I think I will say good afternoon
with this lovely hymn:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWTnLD4wOl0

From Letty with love to the world

Catching up . . .
I enjoyed Queen's "My Best Friend".
When I think of Queen, I remember the hilarious "Bohemian Rhapsody" scene
in Wayne's World.
"The Old Lamplighter" was a real change of pace.
James Earl Jones has just the voice for "The Raven".

Not such a beautiful morning here.
I was on the road before daybreak.
Cold and drizzly.
Back to work.
