@edgarblythe,
Love that song by Babs, edgar. She's a strong woman. Thank you!

Time for me to day goodnight, and this is for my Dave who sang it so beautifully.

No tears, but always...

From Letty with love

Izzie

@edgarblythe,
Well, I receive two, but started with Michael Buble's "Crazy Love" first on a trip to the pharmacy so didn't get past his new version of "Cry Me a River"

Good morning, WA2K folks.

Ah, edgar, loved Julio's Moonlight Lady. Thanks, buddy.

Hey, Mr. Wizard. Michael Buble is one of my favorite singers. He has lived his life in stages just as I have.

Izzie, things are gettin' better, hun.

Here's a song from a birthday boy.

Sing it Alan.

I knew it wasn't Alan Ladd, because he didn't make records. Jackson has a nice easy delivery that I find appealing.
I also like Michael. Another artist I seem to appreciate even more over the years is Dean Martin.

@edgarblythe,
I like Dino as well, edgar. Never heard that one by him, however.

Alan Ladd did do one song that I know of. He had a pretty good voice.

Well, y'all. Today is Montgomery Clift's birthday, so here is a tribute to him.

I recall The Misfits. It became a jinxed movie because of the tragedy that befell each star and the reversal of fortune of Arthur Miller.

@Letty,
Cliff never fully recovered from the car accident -- actually a road I traveled a lot in the 50's and 60's, Laurel Canyon. It was in the middle of filming "Raintree County" and one side of his face was immovable so they had to photograph him only from confined angles. In subsequent films, the directors would not follow that rule.

I watched The Misfits earlier this year. Something in the presentation was off, but I enjoyed the actors.

Montgomery was around for a long time. I watched many films with him.

I was watching this Cab Calloway earlier.

Mr. Wizard, I had to check out Monty's car accident. Just saw that someone asked him if he wanted to watch The Misfits and he responded "Hell No"

edgar, Had to check with my big sis on Cab. Loved that song that you played. I recall that Danny Kaye did Minnie the Moocher as did Mr. "jumpin' jive". He and Ellington broke the color barrier on radio.

Well, y'all, as one thing leads to another, here's a reggae version of that naughty girl.

Cab was so identified with Minnie the Moocher, he reprised it in The Blues Brothers movie.
Didn't see the wiz enter the studio. I appreciate the information about Montgomery.

@Letty,
He also began to make more black-and-white films and take on roles actually portraying characters sometimes much older than he was -- the psychiatrist in "Suddenly, Last Summer," and "Freud." It's a pity he ended up in a New York brownstone, totally afflicted with alcoholism.

"The Heiress" is my favorite Monty film even though he plays a cad. Of course, then he went on to play a murderer in "A Place in the Sun," the most gut-wrenching of all of his films, portraying the sad destiny of love.

I didn't see the cowboy either, but I am certain that he's long gone.

edgar, Mr. Wizard is magic; that's why you didn't see or hear him.

Ah, I recall Monty in Freud. That was when I was beginning to study psychology.

Let's take a peek at the trailer, ok?

Freud's final days were a nightmare. I cringed while reading a bio on him.

I was among the millions that fell for Debbie's song in 1957.

edgar, I know what you mean about Freud. He was a victim of his own psychology. Lawzy me, I had forgotten about Debbie Reynolds. I recall Tammy. Rather tragic life like so many stars, buddy.

Hey, Rocky. Loved that song. We'll always find something to "blame it on" and the moon is as good as any scapegoat, I reckon. So, it's a "three log night" in your store.

Here are a couple of jazz standards for this cool and lovely afternoon in my little corner of Florida.

First, Billy Taylor.

Now, a different interpretation of The More I See You.
