WA2K Radio is now on the air

Good morning, Miss L.

Today is also Carroll O'Connor's birthday. Who can forget the opening of All In The Family?

Thanks, you started by day off right.

JPB, as Bud once observed, that TV show couldn't lose; the bigots would cheer Archie on and the others would see the irony and laugh at his stupidity.

Hey, Mr. Wizard. Indeed she began the day right.

Remember this one with Carroll?

I used to watch the Merv Griffin show every day. I loved his voice. Here's one with Carroll, Merv, and Helen Merrill.

Helen really phrased the jazz way on that song, squirrel lady, but frankly, I believe Roger upstaged all three. What a piano man.

Another version of What is this Thing Called love, folks.

Arlo Guhtrie

Hey, Brit. Arlo's song enjoyed a spin off on TV. Remember what it was? Anyway, buddy, I am rather surprised that you didn't play this one.

Met a biker the other day when I went to pay my water bill, and we had a great chat about "hawgs". When I left, I told him that I enjoyed the conversation and his response: "Why thank you, young lady".

Wow. Lot of good music this morning. I will be back in a few minutes. Good morning, all.

Ah. yas. Found it. Here is Gallant Dick Turpin. Part One

Here some more music from Germany. The Rattles - it's easy to see what era they're from! And they are still playing and will be playing on our market square on Wednesday!

Hey, Texas. Don't know that guy George Formby, but love the oldies, buddy and thanks.

Urs, The Rattles are doing a montage of their sixties songs. Don't know em, but I love that music. Thanks, gal.

Well, today is Peter O'Toole's birthday, and we all know what his greatest portrayal was, right? That of T.E. Lawrence. Two songs for us today, y'all. First the theme from Lawrence of Arabia, then the best scene from the movie.

T.E. Lawrence on his motorcycle.



It was eventually the death of him.

The final fate of the Brough Superior which belonged to Lawrence of Arabia has long been a favourite topic of debate.
Lawrence of Arabia loved his motorcycling and his motorcycle. 'A skittish motorbike,' he said; 'with a touch of blood in it is better than all the riding animals on earth, because of its logical extension of our faculties, and the hint, the provocation, to excess conferred by its honeyed untiring smoothness. Because Boa' - Boa was Lawrence's pet name for his Brough - 'loves me, he gives me five more miles of speed than a stranger would get from him.'

Now the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu in Hampshire, UK, has announced a major new exhibit which will be joining its Hall of Fame: Lawrence of Arabia's Brough Superior SS100 motorcycle. The Brough, which has been loaned to the Museum by its current owner, is considered to be the one on which Lawrence had his fatal accident on May 13th, 1935.

Thanks, cowboy, for that background. I find it odd that so many people survived war only to die on the road. The same happened to Gen. Patton. What seemed like a harmless accident, ended up costing him his life.

Well, y'all, today is Jeremy Castle's birthday, so let's have a listen. "Get a horse".

Albert Camus comes to mind.

Albert Camus come to mind when you hear Jeremy Castle, dys? Yep, I know about the car thing.

I think we studied him in undergrad school, but I do know that I pronounced his name just as it sounds.

Same with Camille St-Saens.

Had no idea that the "s" was pronounced.

Love his compositions, y'all.

Our classical piece for today, then.

I'm here to put a little Lulu on the radio this afternoon.
Like the Swan song, letty.

Don't know Jeremy Castle, but he has a good way with a song.

Ah, edgar. LuLu from To Sir with Love, right? I didn't know Jeremy either, but he has a great voice and it was his birthday. Yep, We all need to "put a little love in our hearts", Texas.

Course you know what I'm gonna play. This LuLu. My word, I loved those cartoons when I was a kid.

Recognized Bing and Bob, but now the other guy.
