@George,
Ah, my Christian friend, glad you are still with us.

Well, it's May Day here. First , an interpretation:


Today I found out why those aboard planes and ships use the word “Mayday” to indicate they are in extreme distress.

Imelda Mary Higham (born Imelda Mary Clabby; 10 July 1974), professionally known as Imelda May, is an Irish singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist. Born and raised in The Liberties area of Dublin, May began her career in music at 16 by performing with a number of local bands and musicians.

Poor Sam Cook and Elvis. Gone but not forgotten.




three tributes for today.

First, dear Nat:

Now another memory:

Twinkle,twinkle little star we,all know that you are Neil

https://www.youtube.comwatch?v=RQwqQwD6OOw

Now, a birthday lady:

Sorry Neil didn't work.Perhaps George can restore him: (:

@Letty,
Nat King Cole and Audrey Hepburn are worthy of tributes.
The link to your "Neil" tribute is broken.

@George,
Hope you will keep the original format of our radio going.

Can you believe that I just watched Donald Trump listening to Neil Diamond.

Here he is again:

Now, one that I only know by The Andrew Sisters. I used to think
they were German:

Back in a bit, dear friend.

@George,
Well, dear friend, I'm back and will say good afternoon with two songs.

First, Perry again:

Now, A Day in May. If I have played this one before,
some songs are worth playing twice.

From Letty with love and hope for a better tomorrow.

@Letty,
Perry is always good and a Day in May was worth repeating
(although I can't remember your having played it before).


How's about some flamenco guitar? These guys are remarkable.

@George,
Good late morning, George and Olivier5.

Thanks for your comment, George.

I'm a bit groggy today as I awakened in the middle of the night
seeing a full moon rising on my right over the intre costal warter way.

It reminded me of a bad moon on my right.

Loved all of those songs, guys. Especiall While my Guitar Gently Weeps
and that attempt a Soul which sounded funky was great as it reminded
me of Art Blakey's Nothing but the Soul. Smile

Here's a golden oldie:

and, another:

and, y'all, another:

Now, a classic:

@George,
Well, dear friend, while we await Mon Ami's response, I'm saying good afternoon
with one more golden oldies.

I guess you both know that Bad Moon Rising was about the Viet Nam war.

Ray is saying my name backwards. Smile

From Letty with love to the both of you.

@George,
Well, dear friend, I'm back again and I always appreciate your comments.

Earth, Wind, and Fire was great as was The Mammas and the Papas.

Can you believe it's cold here in our Florida radio station. It may be
the north east wind that's blowing.

three songs for today here.

First, a birthday guy:

Now, Bob:

Now, Freud:

@George,
Well, my Christian friend, I'm going to say good afternoon now because I couldn't take a cat nap. I thought cats always came back, but my cat in calico
didn't. My Beth did get a laugh, because I called her my little gal in calico. Smile

I will never understand why Charles (edgar) put all those links in there
because they can be like chains:

I never cared for Elvis until I heard in in his jump suit:

Now, Manhattan Transfer:

From Letty with love to all of my friends wherever you are.

Rachmaninoff was a good way to start a sunny Sunday morning.


I guess Sunday is a good day to have a little faith.
