@George,
Good morning, dear friend from here in our Florida Radio Station.

Thanks for all of your comments and I wish I could comment on all of them but one of my favorites was The Young Rascals doing Groovin.
The reason that I have been interested in Robert E. Lee is he may have
been part of our ancestry, but I have no one in my family from Virginia
to ask. Odd that it was Charlottesville that moved his statue.

Now another memory of days gone by.

I sang this one on the old radio station where I met my husband:

Now another golden oldie:

Now, Dean:

@Letty,
"Accentuate the Positive" is a good song. I wish I could have heard your
rendition.


I remember this from "The Big Chill"

@George,
Thanks again for your comment, dear friend

I love Temptations doing Ain't Too Prond To Beg.

I forgot that you didn't do email. <sniff>

Saying good afternoon now as I'm not feeling too well.

First, one to match your group:

Now, one that my late husband said was my signature because when I drove
home, he would look out the window and see my pony tail going back and forth: :

Now, a memory when I taught history:

Robert Edward Lee (usually known as Robert E Lee) was the most famous general of the Confederate Army during the American Civil War and fought with distinction. Robert E Lee signed the document of surrender to formally end the American Civil War at the Appomattox Court House on April 9th 1865.

From Letty with love and thank to you, for being my friend.
George

Franklin.

@George,
Glad you're back with us dear, friend. and I appreciate your comments on
what I played.

Loved Shanty and Cuban the Prophet.

How about Mozart's Turkish Rondo now: They calle it Turkish Trot here,
which is a funny reminder:

@Letty,
I like "Rondo alla Turca" and the parody was a lot of fun.
It reminded me of Spike Jones.


Randy Newman is lots of fun, too.

@George,
Well, I'm back, and thanks again for your comments.

What a surprise to hear James doing Traffic Jam.

I think I missed one of your songs, if so, it's because my eyes
are still full of sleep, but it had to do with monkey men. Smile

When I listened the that hurricane in Texas, I thought of Glenn. <sniff>

Guess I'll say good afternoon with that fantastic performer.

From Letty with hope for Sunday tomorrow. Thanks again for
being my friend.

Bay City Rollers! Boy they were a flash-in-the pan, weren't they.
Some good tunes, though.


Here's beach music from down your way
