WA2K Radio is now on the air

and when I was a kid, they never had to coax me to bed. I was always sleepy.

Loved Pernell Roberts, y'all.

Just remembered Michael Landon. He died of pancreatic cancer just like my musician friend, Bill.

Fantastic tribute, Miss Letty.

That was great.

Thanks, Chicago. When edgar played Maria, I thought of this one. I think it was the music behind Romeo and Juliet.

I guess my all time favorite plays by the Bard were, MacBeth; Julius Caesar; Romeo and Juliet.

I'm sure that you will love the visuals, Miss Squirrel

Oops, another retraction, y'all.

This is the one that I meant.

I love the Matt Monroe. And that Romeo and Juliet piece is fabulous. That calls for a Scotch and Soda.

Wow! Great song by The Kingston Trio, edgar. What I call quiet soul. How about some Glenlivet?

Here's another soul song, folks. This one is by the Isley Brothers.

Back later with my goodnight song.

The Everly Brothers, with a song written and passed to them by Paul McCartney

I like the Isley Brothers, letty.

Love that song, and I well remember Bye Bye Love by those Bros. Thanks, Texas.

Well, this one is not on the wing, but he's singing.



Don't know this lady, but I like her style, and we get two for the price of one, so here is my goodnight song.

goodnight everyone,

From Letty with love

I remember Joanie Sommers. Her big hit record came in the early to mid 1960s. It was "Johnny Get Angry."

Saying good night with Tommy Edwards.

edgar, loved that one by Willie. It's perfect for the dys.

Also enjoyed "It's All in the Game". Thanks, buddy.

Hope our Izzie is better today.

Here's a morning song by a legend, y'all.

Well, it ain't morning no more, but that's still a good song, letty. I brought in Loretta Lynne to sang for us.

I really have come to appreciate Loretta Lynn, edgar. Perhaps it's her survival and productivity in spite of hard times. Really like Coal Miner's Daughter, buddy.


Loretta Lynn (born Loretta Webb on April 14, 1935) is an American country music singer-songwriter; she was one of the leading country vocalists and songwriters during the 1960s and is revered as a country music cultural icon.

Lynn ruled the charts during the '60s and '70s, racking up over 70 hits as a solo artist and a duet partner.

With an impoverished upbringing, a troubled yet devoted marriage, chronic illness and exhaustion due to her hectic pace, and several tragedies through the years, Lynn's own life often provided the grist for her popular tunes. Her best-selling 1976 autobiography, Coal Miner's Daughter, was made into a hit Academy Award-winning film starring Sissy Spacek and Tommy Lee Jones in 1980.

Although she was out of the loop for a few years while taking care of her husband, who died in 1996, Lynn returned to touring in 1998. In 2000, she released her first album since 1988 to contain original solo material] Including solo and duet work, Loretta Lynn has released 16 number one country hits over the course of her career.

Bravo, Loretta.

Just found out that Guy Williams was one of the characters in Bonanza, folks, and had no idea that the man played Zorro. Great looking guy, too.

Here's one from Disney's Zorro.

Guy also played the father on Lost in Space.

Here is a version of Bye Bye Blackbird I had not been aware of.

a song from mr knopfler before I bundle up and get to work, miss letty...

Wow! That is different, edgar. Think I prefer the jazz version, however. Sang that one at a mixer in undergrad school. Thanks for the introduction, buddy.

I had forgotten that Guy Williams was the father in Lost in Space. I remember the theme song to that one, and am humming it as we speak.

Speaking of space, I just remembered Sputnik 2. Talking about animal cruelty, y'all. This one is disgusting.

Laika (Russian: Лайка, literally meaning "Barker") was a Soviet space dog (c. 1954 " November 3, 1957) who became the first animal to orbit the Earth and the first orbital death. Little was known about the impact of spaceflight on living things at the time Laika's mission was launched. Some scientists believed humans would be unable to survive the launch or the conditions of outer space, so engineers viewed flights by non-human animals as a necessary precursor to human missions. Laika, a stray, originally named Kudryavka (Russian: Кудрявка Little Curly-Haired One), underwent training with two other dogs, and was eventually chosen as the occupant of the Soviet spacecraft Sputnik 2 that was launched into outer space on November 3, 1957. Sputnik 2 was not designed to be retrievable, and Laika had always been intended to die.

grrrrrrrr.

Oops, missed our moose man. Laters? Love that word

Hello from Europe! We were all waiting for it - Robbie Williams is back! Ok, I know he is not big in the US but I love him.

He performed in Berlin for FREE!!! This is a clip from that open-air concert...

Urs, Welcome back. I don't know about the other Yanks, but I love Robbie Williams. Morning Sun was great, gal.

Sure didn't know that Robbie sang this one, y'all.

Mark Knopler's Get Lucky was awesome. Here's one by Dire Straits. He was formerly with that group.
