WA2K Radio is now on the air

Oh, my God, Raggedy, I do love those animations, PA. and, as usual, your photo's are marvelous.

I'm afraid I don't recall Kim Karath, but I'll bet RealJonBoy does.

Strange, in the background I just listened to "Dream a Little Dream of Me."

Dreaming in the middle of the day? It's possible, but here is a song that talks about a red moon.

LUNA ROSSA Song Lyrics
MARIO FRANGOULIS
SOMETIMES I DREAM (2002)

Red Moon

I walk along unthinking and alone
My cap pulled down to hide my eyes
Hands in my pockets and collar turned up
I walk along whistling at the stars that have come out

And the red moon talks to me about you
I ask if you are waiting for me
and it answers: "If you really want to know,
here, there is no one..."

And I call your name to see you
but everyone who is talking about you
is answering: "It's late, what do you want to know?
here, there is no one!...

Red moon,
who will be sincere to me?
Red moon,
she went away the other night
without seeing me...

I've had more than a thousand dates
So many and more cigarettes I've smoked
So many and more cups of coffee I've drunk
A thousand bitter lips I've kissed

And the red moon talks to me about you
I ask if you're waiting for me
and it answers: "If you really want to know,
here, there is no one..."

And I call your name to see you
but everyone who's talking about you
answers: "It's late, what do you want to know?!
Here, there is no one!..."

And I say that still she's waiting for me,
Out on the balcony tonight at three
and she's praying to the Saints to see me...
But there is no one...

Later the original language of this song.

At My Front Door
The El Dorados

Crazy little mama come knocking
Knocking at my front door, door, door
Crazy little mama come knocking
Knocking at my front door
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking
Just like she did before

I woke up this morning with a feeling of despair
Lookin' for my baby and she wasn't there
Heard someone knocking and much to my surprise
There stood my baby looking in my eyes
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking
Just like she did before

If you got a little mama and ya want to keep her neat
Keep your little mama off my street
Same thing will happen like it did before
She'll come knock, knock, knocking at my door
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking
Just like she did before

Crazy little mama come knocking
Knocking at my front door, door, door
Crazy little mama come knocking
Knocking at my front door
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking
Just like she did before

---- Instrumental Interlude ----

If you got a little mama and ya want to keep her neat
Keep your little mama off my street
Same thing will happen like it did before
She'll come knock, knock, knocking at my door
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking
Just like she did before
Yi, yi, yi,yi, yi, yi.....
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking
Just like she did before
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oooooooooo

Great, edgar. Lot of crazy little mammas out there, right?

Here's one by The Blues Brothers. Isn't that Sublime's avatar?


I dont want to lose you ,this good thing that I got, cause if I do
I will surely ,surely lose a lot
cause your love is better than any love I know
its like thunder and lightning
the way you love me is frightening
you better knock (knock) on wood ,baby ,I better knock

Im not superstitious about ya but I cant take no chance
I got me spinning ,baby ,you know Im in a trance
cause your love is better than any love I know
its like thunder and lightning
the way you love me is frightening
you better knock (knock) on wood ,baby ,I better knock

Its no secret about it ,that woman is my loving cup
cause she sees to it that I get enough
just one touch from her ,you know it means so much
its like thunder and lightning
the way you love me is frightening
you better knock (knock ,knock) on wood ,baby ,I better knock

Think I better knock ,knock ,knock on wood
think I better knock ,knock ,knock on wood .......

Well, listeners, I have the translation of Red Moon, but I am not certain of the language. It may be Italian. I'll keep looking.

You'll find it, Letty.

Finally, Raggedy, the woman in the moon gets equal billing. Love it, PA.

Well, here are the lyrics, and they look Italian, but I cannot be certain.

Vaco distrattamente abbandunato...
Ll'uocchie sott'o cappiello annascunnute
mane 'int'a sacca e bavero aizato...
Vaco siscanno e stelle ca so'asciute...


E'a luna rossa mme parla 'e te
io lle domando si aspiette a me,
e mme risponne: "Si 'o vvuo'sape,
cca nun ce esta nisciuna..."

E io chiammo 'o nomme pe'te vede,
ma, tutt'a gente ca parla 'e te,
risponne: "E tarde che vuo'sape?!
Cca nun ce sta nisciuna!..."

Luna rossa,
chi mme sarra sincera?
Luna rossa,
se n'e ghiuta ll'ata sera
senza mme vede...

Mille e cchiu appuntamente aggio tenuto...
Tante e cchiu sigarette aggio appicciato...
Tanta tazze 'e cafe mme so' bevuto...
Mille vucchelle amare aggio vasato...

E'a luna rossa mme parla 'e te
Io lle domando si aspiette a me,
e mme risponne: "Si o vvuo' sape,
cca nun ce sta nisciuna..."

E io chiammo 'o nomme pe'te vede
ma, tutt'a gente ca parla 'e te,
risponne: "E tarde che vuo'sape?!
Cca nun ce sta nisciuna!..."

E io dico ancora ch'aspetta a me,
for'o barcone stanott'e ttre,
e prega 'e Sante pe'mme vede...
Ma nun ce sta nisciuna...

Well, folks, Thanks to our multilingual/polyphonic Francis, we can now verify that the translation of The Red Moon is a special type of Italian referred to as Milanese. (I think.)

Had a malfunction in my equipment earlier, so I hope it has been corrected.

Bald Headed Woman

I don't want no bald headed woman,

Harry Belafonte

Well, edgar, would Harry like a lady with hair? Let's hear about one from Boney M.

Lady godiva

Her name was Lady Godiva
A lady so brave and so strong
Her husband the Earl of Mercia
He treated her terribly wrong
She's a lady
She's a lady
She rode naked on horseback
To stop him from his tax increase
But people in town
closed their curtains
Than prison for living in peace
She's a lady
She's a lady
She's a lady, Lady Godiva
The hero of Coventry
L-L-Lady Lady Godiva

She rode into history
Then sneaking a glance
through the window
Was a guy they called Peeping Tom
He caught a glimpse and was blinded
Curiosity sometimes is wrong

People liked Lady Godiva
Respectfully looking away
They honoured incredible courage
Her legend lives until today

Rolling Stones

Please allow me to introduce myself
Im a man of wealth and taste

Made damn sure that pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you

While your kings and queens

For the gods they made

And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails

Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or Ill lay your soul to waste, um yeah

Were you there when they crucified my Lord ?

Were you there when they nailed him to the tree ?
Were you there when they nailed him to the tree ?
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they nailed him to the tree ?

Were you there when they pierced him in the side ?
Were you there when they pierced him in the side ?
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble

Were you there when they laid him in the tomb ?
Were you there when they laid him in the tomb ?
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they laid him in the tomb ?


Harry Belafonte

Ah, edgar. My Mamma loved that song. In my mind I can hear her singing it, and your Rolling Stone song must have been about Lucifer. Wow! gave me the shivers.

Well, this is my goodnight song from Carol King, folks.

Tonight you're mine completely
You give your love so sweetly
Tonight the light of love is in your eyes
But will you love me tomorrow?

Is this a lasting treasure
Or just a moment's pleasure?
Can I believe the magic of your sigh?
Will you still love me tomorrow?

Tonight with words unspoken
You'll say that I'm the only one
But will my heart be broken
When the night meets the morning sun?

I'd like to know that your love
Is love I can be sure of
So tell me now and I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?

I need to know
Will you still love me tomorrow?

Goodnight
From Letty with love

John Marcellus Huston (August 5, 1906 - August 28, 1987) was an American film director and actor. He was known for directing several classic films, The Maltese Falcon, The Asphalt Jungle, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Key Largo, and The African Queen.




Biography

Early life

Huston was born in Nevada, Missouri, the son of the Canadian-born actor, Walter Huston, and Rhea Gore, a sports reporter; he was of Scottish and Irish descent on his father's side. Huston was raised by his maternal grandparents, Adelia Richardson and John Marcellus Gore.


Career

Huston began his film career as a screenwriter and made films mainly adapted from books or plays. The six-foot-two-inch, brown-eyed director also acted in a number of films, with distinction in Otto Preminger's The Cardinal for which he was nominated for the Academy award for Best Supporting Actor and in Roman Polanski's Chinatown as the film's central heavy against Jack Nicholson.


Huston's films were insightful about human nature and human predicaments. They also sometimes included scenes or brief dialogue passages that were remarkably prescient concerning environmental issues that came to public awareness in the future, in the period starting about 1970; examples include The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948) and The Night of the Iguana (1964). Huston also directed The Misfits (1960) with an all-star cast including Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe, Montgomery Clift, and Eli Wallach. Famously, Huston spent long evenings carousing in the Nevada casinos after filming, surrounded by reporters and beautiful women, gambling, drinking, and smoking cigars. Gable remarked during this time that 'if he kept it up he would soon die of it'. Ironically, and tragically, Gable died three weeks after the end of filming from a massive heart attack while Huston went on to live for twenty-six more years.

After filming the documentary Let There Be Light on the psychiatric treatment of soldiers for shellshock, Huston resolved to make a film about Sigmund Freud and psychoanalysis. The film, Freud the Secret Passion, began as a collaboration between Huston and Jean-Paul Sartre. Sartre dropped out of the film and requested his name be removed from the credits. Huston went on to make the film starring Montgomery Clift as Freud.

In the 1970s, he was a frequent actor in Italian films, but continued acting until the age of 80 (Momo, 1986), one year before he passed away.

Huston is also famous to a generation of fans of J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth stories as the voice of the wizard Gandalf in the Rankin/Bass animated adaptations of The Hobbit (1977) and The Return of the King (1980).


Academy Awards

In 1941, Huston was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for The Maltese Falcon. He was nominated again and won in 1948 for The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, for which he also received the Best Director award.

Huston received 15 Oscar nominations in the course of his career. In fact, he is the oldest person ever to be nominated for the Best Director Oscar when, at 79 years old, he was nominated for Prizzi's Honor (1985). He also has the unique distinction of directing both his father Walter and his daughter Anjelica in Oscar-winning performances (in The Treasure of the Sierra Madre and Prizzi's Honor, respectively), making the Hustons the first family to have three generations of Academy Award winners.


Personal life

Huston, an Episcopalian,[1] was married five times, to:

Dorothy Harvey
Lesley Black
It was during his marriage to Black that he embarked on an affair with married New York socialite Marietta FitzGerald. While her lawyer husband was helping the war effort, the pair were once rumoured to have made love so vigourously, they broke a friends bed.[2] When her husband returned before the end of the Second World War, Huston returned to Hollywood to await Marietta's divorce. However, on a trip to Barbados she fell in love with billionaire bisexual British MP Ronald Tree, and decided to marry him instead

Huston was heart broken, and after an affair with the fashion designer and writer Pauline Fairfax Potter, married:

Evelyn Keyes - during which his affair with Fairfax Potter continued
Enrica Soma - daughter Anjelica Huston, son attorney Walter Antony "Tony" Huston
Celeste Shane.
All but the marriage to Soma, who died, ended in divorce. Among his children are the director Danny Huston (by Zoe Sallis) and the actress Anjelica Huston (by Enrica Soma) and attorney Walter Antony "Tony" Huston (also by Enrica Soma).

Among his friends were Orson Welles and Ernest Hemingway.

Huston visited Ireland in 1951 and stayed at Luggala, County Wicklow, the home of Garech Browne, a member of the Guinness family. He visited Ireland several times afterwards and on one of these visits he purchased and restored a Georgian home, St Clerans, between Loughrea and Craughwell, County Galway. He became an Irish citizen and his daughter Anjelica attended school in Ireland at Kylemore Abbey for a number of years. A film school is now dedicated to him on the NUIG campus. Huston is also the inspiration for the 1990 film White Hunter Black Heart starring Clint Eastwood, who also directed.

Huston was an accomplished painter who created the 1982 label for Château Mouton Rothschild.

He died from emphysema on August 28, 1987 in Middletown, Rhode Island, at the age of 81. A few weeks before, Marietta visited him and his electrocardiogram "started jumping with excitement as soon as she entered the room." She was, his friends maintained, the only woman he ever really loved.[3]

Huston is interred in the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Hollywood, California.

Robert Taylor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



Birth name Spangler Arlington Brugh
Born August 5, 1911
Filley, Nebraska
Died June 8, 1969 (aged 57)
Santa Monica, California
Spouse(s) Barbara Stanwyck (1939-1951)
Ursula Thiess (1954-1969)

Robert Taylor (August 5, 1911 - June 8, 1969), was an American actor.

Born Spangler Arlington Brugh (homonym of "brew"), he made his first film appearance in 1934. Clean cut and strikingly handsome with wavy dark hair and blue eyes, he was an instant heart-throb from the beginning. Early in his career, he was known as "the man with the perfect profile."





Early life

Spangler Arlington Brugh was born near Beatrice, Nebraska to a country doctor and his invalid wife. He had an impressive number of accomplishments to match his rather impressive name. As a teenager, he was a track star and showed a flair for public speaking. His real love, however, was music. He played the cello in his high school orchestra and upon graduation he enrolled at Doane College in Nebraska to study music.

Inspired by his father, who had become a doctor with the intent of curing his invalid wife, the younger Brugh subsequently changed tracks and moved west to study medicine at Pomona College in Los Angeles. While at Pomona he joined the campus theater group and, aided by his remarkable good looks, found yet another calling. He considered continuing on to drama school upon his graduation from Pomona in 1933, but before he could follow through on the plan an MGM talent scout spotted him and gave him both a contract and a new name.


Acting career

By his own admission, he was hardly the greatest actor of his generation, but his many directors and famous co-stars always found him a most professional actor, always on time and willing to work hard to get the film to be the best. Many actors and actresses later claimed that he was underrated as an actor, especially in films in his later years. Although he was known for his classic features, Taylor always strived for different films where he could play more rugged and challenging roles, not wanting to be known as just a "pretty face."

One of his first major films was Camille (1936), opposite Greta Garbo. When he was cast in the MGM musical Broadway Melody of 1936, his previous roles were all in Dramas. In the film, he surprised everyone with his pleasant singing voice. By the early 1950s, his handsome face was already beginning to show signs of age, and roles were harder to come by. Mervyn LeRoy's drama Waterloo Bridge (1940, Taylor's personal favorite of his films), opposite Vivien Leigh, his former co-star in A Yank at Oxford (1938), was another of his successes at the box office during these years. Still, he managed to make his mark in what would become one of his best known roles, as General Marcus Vinicius in Quo Vadis (1951), opposite Deborah Kerr. The following year, he starred opposite a much younger Elizabeth Taylor in the film version of Walter Scott's classic Ivanhoe. The movie proved to be a smash hit and MGM quickly followed it up with 1953's Knights of the Round Table.

In later life, he made many television appearances, notably in the 1959 series, The Detectives Starring Robert Taylor.

In 1970, he was inducted into the Western Performers Hall of Fame at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.


McCarthy era controversy

In 1947, Taylor testified before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) as a "friendly witness", claiming that he had appeared in the film Song of Russia against his better judgment. He went on to claim that the script by Richard Collins and Paul Jarrico, and a song in the movie written by Yip Harburg, were pro-Communist.

Taylor also provided evidence against actor Howard Da Silva. He is quoted as saying: "I can name a few who seem to sort of disrupt things once in a while. Whether or not they are Communists I don't know. One chap we have currently, I think is Howard Da Silva. He always seems to have something to say at the wrong time."


Personal life

His first wife was the actress Barbara Stanwyck. Taylor and Stanwyck were one of the Hollywood's "golden couples" and were good friends with another famous couple, Clark Gable and Carole Lombard. The marriage had its ups and downs, lasting from 1939 to 1951.

In 1951 Taylor starred in the film Above and Beyond, a biopic of "Enola Gay" pilot Paul Tibbets. The two men met and found that they had much in common. Both had considered studying medicine, and were avid skeet-shooters and fliers. Taylor learned to fly in the mid-1930s, and served as a US Navy flying instructor during World War II. His private aircraft was a Twin Beech called "Missy" (wife Stanwyck's nickname) which he used on hunting and fishing trips. She complained that he spent all his time polishing his guns and aircraft, but when airborne could "do anything a bird could do, except sit on a barbed wire fence".[1]

Taylor considered remarrying Stanwyck several times after their 1951 divorce. He also had a serious romance with Eleanor Parker, but ultimately he chose as his second wife German-born actress, Ursula Thiess, with whom he had two children. They owned a large ranch and home in the Mandeville Canyon section of Brentwood, California, which to this day is still referred to by locals as the old "Robert Taylor ranch." He was ultimately happy and well-suited to Thiess, who gave up her acting career when she became his wife, although she did a few spots on his later television series, Robert Taylor's Detectives. She has written an autobiography ...but I have promises to keep: My Life Before, With & After Robert Taylor.


Death

Robert Taylor died of lung cancer (he was a chain smoker) at the age of 57, and he was interred in Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery, in Glendale, California. The crème de la crème of Hollywood celebrities went to his funeral, and his best friend Ronald Reagan gave the eulogy.


Trivia

In the Rodgers and Hart song "The Lady Is a Tramp", Taylor is immortalized in a verse ending with the line "for Robert Taylor I whistle and stamp / that's why the lady is a tramp." [1]

John Saxon (born Carmine Orrico on August 5, 1935 in Brooklyn, New York) is an American actor.

John is the son of Antonio and Anna Orrico. He studied acting with famous acting coach Stella Adler and broke into films in the mid-50s, playing teenage roles. According to Robert Hofler's 2005 biography, The Man Who Invented Rock Hudson: The Pretty Boys and Dirty Deals of Henry Willson, agent Willson saw Orrico's picture on the cover of a detective magazine and immediately contacted the boy's family in Brooklyn. He brought the 16-year-old Orrico to Hollywood and renamed him Saxon.

In his early career, Saxon worked with many notable directors including Vincente Minnelli, Blake Edwards, John Huston, Frank Borzage, and Otto Preminger but, despite this, never developed into a major star. He appeared primarily in supporting roles, and won a Golden Globe Best Supporting Actor nomination for his portrayal of a Mexican bandit in the 1966 film The Appaloosa. He was top-billed in his most famous film Enter the Dragon (1973), although that film's main actor was Bruce Lee. In 1975 he starred in several episodes of the ABC produced mega-hit series The Six Million Dollar Man playing the role of Major Frederick Sloan. This role also extended into The Bionic Woman. The actor's likeness was later used for the Kenner action-figure doll called 'Maskatron' which was based on the series.

Saxon has also appeared in many Italian films, mainly in the spaghetti western and police thriller genres. He was also the second incarnation of Dylan Hunt from the Gene Roddenberry shows called Planet Earth and Strange New World. More recently, Saxon may be best known as a supporting player in horror films, most notably Bob Clark's underrated but highly influential Black Christmas (1974) as the relatively smart leader of a bunch of dumb cops; in Dario Argento's Tenebrae (1982) as the writer hero's shifty agent; in Mitchell (1975) as the murderous union lawyer and prostitute provider Walter Deaney, in Battle beyond the Stars (1980) as Sador and in Wes Craven's A Nightmare On Elm Street (1984) as the heroine's (Nancy Thompson's) father.

In recent years he has been seen in a number of independent films and has appeared in several television series, perhaps most notably CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and more recently the hit Showtime series Masters Of Horror.

At one time in my life, I thought I had a handle on
the meaning of the word "service". The act of doing
things for other people. Then I heard these service
terms:

Internal Revenue Service,

Postal Service,

Civil Service,

Telephone Service,

Service Stations,

A O L Service Desk,

Customer Service,

City/County Public Service.

And I became confused about the word "service.
This is not what I thought "service" meant.

Then one day, I overheard two farmers talking, and one of
them mentioned that he was having a bull service a few
of his cows.

SHAZAM!! It all came into perspective. Now I understand
what all those "service" agencies are doing to us...

Good monring, Bob of Boston. You made it quite clear about how those "services" operate. Now I know what to say when next contacted. I am certain that our frisky pup will be along shortly, so will await her animated presence before further comment.

Thanks for the great bio's, hawkman. Not many to whom I can dedicate a song, but since Robert is alluded to in the following song, let's listen.

Frank Sinatra - The Lady Is A Tramp Lyrics

She gets too hungry for dinner at eight
She likes the theater and never comes late
She never bothers with people she'd hate
That's why the lady is a tramp

Doesn't like crap games with barons or earls
Won't go to Harlem in ermine and pearls
Won't dish the dirt with the rest of the girls
That's why the lady is a tramp

She likes the free, fresh wind in her hair
Life without care
She's broke, and that's oke

Hates California, it's cold and it's damp
That's why the lady is a tramp

She gets too hungry to wait for dinner at eight
She loves the theater but never comes late
She'd never bother with people she'd hate
That's why the lady is a tramp

She'll have no crap games with sharpies and frauds
And she won't go to Harlem in Lincolns or Fords
And she won't dish the dirt with the rest of the broads
That's why the lady is a tramp

She'd love the free, fresh wind in her hair
Life without care
She's broke, but it's *"oke"*

"For Robert Taylor I whistle and stamp"
That's why the lady
That's why the lady
That's why the lady is a tramp

Sinatra really swings that one

Jerry Lee Lewis - Funny How Time Slips Away
(Willie Nelson)

Well hello there oh my it's been a long long time
How am I doin' (well let me tell you somethin' honey)
I guess I guess I'm doin' fine

It's been so long now and it seems oh it was only yesterday
Ain't it funny how time slips away yeah
How's your new love oh Lord I hope that he's doing fine
Mhm heard you told him yeah
that you was gonna love him untill the end of time

Now that's the same thing that you told me
Oh Lord honey it seems like just the other day
Now ain't it funny how time slips away
Well I gotta go now I guess I'll see you hangin' round
I don't know when though never know when I'll be back here in town
But I want you to remember what I tell you
That in time you get out on your knees
and pray and pray and pray and pray
And it's surprising how time slips away

Morning, edgar. I had forgotten that song, Texas. Thanks! I had always thought that our dys looked like Willie until I discovered that the cowboy had long blonde hair.

Although I don't know this jazz artist, folks, I was really impressed with his background.

With brandy in the tea
Leave your fat old mama home
She never will say yes
If your mama don't know now
She can guess (it's in the mail now!)

All day, all night, Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand.

When she walks along the shore
People pause to greet
White birds fly around her
Little fish come to her feet
In her heart is love
But I'm the only mortal man
Who's allowed to kiss
My Marianne (Everybody!)

All day, all night, Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand.

And when we marry, we will have
A time you never saw
I will be so happy
I will kiss my mother-in-law (Phooey!)
Children by the dozen
In and out the bamboo hut
One for every palm tree
And cocunut (Don't rush me!)

All day, all night, Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand.
Down by the seaside siftin' sand...

Good morning WA2K.
