WA2K Radio is now on the air

My favorite Bean episodes are from his first TV series. He can be hillarious at times.
Would you please pass the biscuits?

Great tribute to Jimmy Dean, edgar. Love biscuits, myself. Finally got some heat in my wee studio thanks to my friend, Rick.

Don't really remember this lovely lady, but today is her birthday. The full history is on the video, however, and it's a depressing one.

I have seen her in at least four films, but it has been long and I can't recall her.

Here is Jimmy Elledge with Willie's Funny How Time Slips Away.

I'm slow, still doing the James Dean thing.

mornin' all.

edgar, is this the Jimmy Elledge to whom you refer?



Liked that song, of course, but I agree with some of the ones who commented. He sounds like a girl.

Rockymoose. Just glad to see you back. Loved that one by Jimmy, and "the black book" reminded me of the crush that I once had on the son of a preacher man.

I have never seen a picture of Jimmy Elledge before. I just know I like that record very much.

Jimmy Dean has always been a really good guy and a great singer. I remember that Son of a Preacher Man song.

This record was a hit in the same era as Jimmy Elledge's song.

Sing

Sing, sing a song
Sing out loud
Sing out strong
Sing of good things not bad
Sing of happy not sad.

Sing, sing a song
Make it simple to last
Your whole life long
Don't worry that it's not
Good enough for anyone
Else to hear
Just sing, sing a song.

Sing, sing a song
Let the world sing along
Sing of love there could be
Sing for you and for me.

Sing, sing a song
Make it simple to last
Your whole life long
Don't worry that it's not
Good enough for anyone
Else to hear
Just sing, sing a song.

Words & Music by Joe Raposo

Sent me to the archives again, edgar. I know that song but not the artist. My word, Texas, many, many people have done that one.

How about a little imagination and a memory, y'all. This reminds me that there was once a garden that was magic.

Ah, Rex, missed your contribution. I think The Carpenters did that one, Maine.

The oldest version of Corrina I know is by Joe Turner and I suspect it was old when he got it.
I know lots of Fifth Dimension songs, but never heard that one before.

This is another song from the time of the last two records I played.

Don't know Donnie Brooks, edgar, but his song Mission Bells inspired me to do more research.

Donnybrook is a word that originated to mean a hard contested battle because at the "Battle of Donnybrook" the Scotts repelled the British.

and, of course, Marty Robbins again with my version of the missing verse. The person who supplied them in the comment section was wrong.

She was a picture in old Spanish lace,
Just for a tender while I kissed the smile upon her face
For it was fiesta, and life was so gay,
South of the border down Mexico way.

Here is a Legend of a Girl Child Linda

Marty naturally does South of the Border very well.

it's Tina time... (now i'm all subconscious about that word)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULw1RHHPv5g&feature=related

edgar, loved that one by Donovan. Ah, A Legend of a Child Called Linda reminded me of Golden Apples of the Sun.

The Golden Apples of the Sun is a collection of twenty-two of the most famous short stories by Ray Bradbury. It is named after the W. B. Yeats poem The Song of Wandering Aengus, the last stanza of which reads:

Though I am old with wandering
Through hollow lands and hilly lands,
I will find out where she has gone
And kiss her lips and take her hands;
And walk among long dappled grass,
And pluck till time and times are done
The silver apples of the moon,
The golden apples of the sun.

Rocky, Never heard that one by Tina Turner. Hmmm, River Deep Mountain High was great. I guess my fav by her is Proud Mary.

Time for me to say goodnight, and I shall do so with two songs.

First, the one inspired by Rex.

and now, this one by Nat inspired by Roberta's beautiful animals

Now I off to sleep, y'all

From Letty with love

That's two great songs, letty. And Tina sounds really good on that one.

I had Golden Apples of the Sun, but it got away from me. Bradbury was used as an example of good writing in a writer's class I took one time. I still have one collection by him. Martian Chronicles, I think.


I got the Frogman with my goodnight -

Good night, rock. I came back because I stumbled across this song by Bobby and had to post it.

Good morning Ms Letty,Ed and all in WA2K land.
Taken from his latest album Soulbook,here's Rod Stewart with his version of It's The Same Old Song....
