WA2K Radio is now on the air

Hi, letty and all. I have been in a very different state of mind today. But, I am back now. Fogerty had a worse time than I imagined. Many times, one's fate seems to be determined by a lottery system.

Here is an artist who left this world all too soon also.

Thanks, edgar, for keeping us on the air, and I know that we all have good days and bad days. Love is All We need by Tommy Edwards was great,buddy. Don't know him, but I found out that he was from the Richmond, Virginia area. Yep, gone too soon.

Well, y'all, today is Mary Travers birthday and I always liked Peter, Paul, and Mary, so let's remember her as she was.

Wow! I'm surprised that panz missed Jo Stafford.(you, too, Texas)

I didn't miss Jo. Love her music. I just forgot to comment.
I will be back with more Mary Travers.

Here she is, with two guys named Peter and Paul.

ah, such great memories, edgar. Love that one, too. Wasn't that John Denver?

Well, our Tai Chi has had some trouble, so I think we should cheer her up with a memory of the high school marching bad.

This is when I played clarinet and what I remember playing. Hey, we were better than this band, y'all.

edgar, that's the first 45 I bought with my own pocket money

Thanks for posting it.

Hey, gal. Check out that march song. It was for you.

Ah, we cross posted Letty. In my day we wore hotter-than-hades wool uniforms:

I still have my clarinet. It's a collector's item by now, I'll bet.

Tomorrow's the anniversary of the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald (1975).

The Mariner's Church in Detroit:

It really is lovely. I attended a service there once with my reserve unit. Marching through a quiet deserted Detroit on a Sunday morning was interesting.

(Meant to add, thanks for cheering me up!)

John Denver was also known for that song, letty.

Loved your Calgary Stampede march, Tai Chi. Incidentally, we have all cheered each other up.

I think you may have let that stampede go too far. Love it! Nice to have our Canuck friends on the radio today. That church was really beautiful. Loved the stained glass windows.

Thanks, edgar for that clarification.

Time for me to say goodnight, and I think that I shall do so with what our Tai Chi meant to play, and one by the late, great Freddy Fender.

First Gordon,

David Sanborn (with his new Staxaphone) and the legendary Sam Moore.

Happy days.Just spoke on the phone (64 minutes) with a dear friend that I really should speak to more often.His name is Keith and now lives with his lovely family in Cardiff,Wales....

Unless you like rugby you won't be familiar with the Welsh National Anthem.

Another Welsh choir but with Roger Waters....

The Tide Is Turning.

Good morning WA2K radio folks.

Welcome back, Brit. First, allow me to comment on David Sanborn and Sam Moore. Fantastic sax, and Sam phrases like I like to hear them soul boys do. In searching out Sam, I was stunned to find out that he was murdered. That led me to discover King Curtis and Night Train. Love discovering stuff here.

Before I play my favorite Canuck's piano version of Night Train, I would also like to acknowledge the Welsh National anthem and The Tide is Turning. What an inspiration. I have blood ties to Wales. Thanks for all of your contributions, buddy.

Tell Freddie that I said, "Meowing, cat."

Listening to Oscar as I climb the stairs Ms Letty.
Oh so Laters!
(and Fred puured)

'Morning Letty. Oscar's a great way to start the day -- especially a work day

See y'all later.

Tai, I am resisting the urge to tell you to have a good day. I love Oscar and always have.

Well, folks your PD/Producer has to make a retraction. It was NOT Sam Moore who was done in; it was King Curtis. Thank to the Brit for the correction.

Today is Richard Burton's birthday, so here is a tribute to him.

One of my favorites by him was his role as Edwin Booth, Prince of Players.

Sorry for the rather abrupt ending
