I am a large fan of J P R and G. Love Here Comes the Sun. There is also a good recording of that by Richie Havens. I have him here, singing Just Like a Woman.

Thanks, edgar. Never heard Richie Havens, but I do like his style, and the unusual rhythm guitar compliments the lyrics to "Just Lake a Woman" in a quaint way.

Well, folks, today is Chico LeBarge's birthday. (don't know him either) but he's singing about a woman just as Richie does.

Thanks, Ragman. I'm listening to one of the man's irreverent videos as we speak, and silently laughing. I would post it, but it may not be the proper thing to do.

Frankly, I appreciate his refusal to be euphemistic and his iconoclastic attacks on the sacred stuff. He makes us think about what is truly good and what is not in our world.

So, George, this is for you, and come on, buddy. This will give you some new material wherever you are. Hey, we can be funny, too.

Hmm, well I still cannot find any background on this man. Perhaps someone out there can fill us in.

Big Joe Turner
Chains of Love

Joe was a great influence of the artists of the 50s and early 60s.

The Archies. When this song was a hit, I snubbed it, because it was a band created specifically for the Archies TV show, which was based on the comic books. In time, I got used to the concept, and now Ilike it very much.

edgar, wasn't Sugar Sugar known as bubble gum music? I know it, but never heard of The Archies.

Wonder if Diane chews bubble gum.

Here's another, folks, that I think may be of that genre.

Ah, Rock. I love that one by Sir Elton. We have decided it must be about Vietnam. Thanks, honey.

Here's Another by him that is great. We'll dedicate this to all those who love music and songs.

A special dedication to a certain someone tonight. I wonder if you will be able to guess who it is.

My goodness, folks, who could our edgar have meant that song for? Ah, it must be for some lovely lady with long blond hair. I really like that song, incidentally.

Time for me to say goodnight, and I would like to dedicate this to everyone on our forum who feels a bit down.

Goodnight, world

From Letty with love

Good morning, WA2K folks.

Today is Ambrose Bierce's birthday, and I have always been fascinated with the man's history and his excellent writing, so let's hear a tribute to him and then a song by The Band.

Good morning, Rex. That was excellent, Maine. I had to do a bit of research on MeatLoaf, and was amazed to find out that he was NOT a rapper. Great voice, and your video was perfect. Thanks.

Well, folks, here's the original rapper.

Good morning. I particularly like the Band.

Well it's gonna be one of those days. Might as well kick it off with the Shirelles.

What I call "The Long and Boring Song" is sometimes worth a listen to, despite my frequent put down.
