Go Bamma!
Laters WA2K.

Good morning. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz. I want to go back to bed. But, it's a work day. See ya later.

See ya later alligators.

Brit, that was a new version of Amazing Grace by the Blind Boys. Actually, I just checked the real melody on our studio piano and it can be played entirely on the black keys.

I recall having asked our fans if they remember Night Court. That is the last time that I saw Mel Torme. Today is Richard Moll's birthday, and he was "bull" on the show.

Here's the theme, folks.

After while, crocodile.

Mel later appeared on Seinfeld. In this scene, Kramer has been to the dentist, so can't speak properly. Plus, he is wearing experimental shoes that make his feet look deformed. Mel assunes he is mentally challenged.

I watched every episode of Night Court, letty. Jack Jones made some very nice records.

edgar, I had no idea that Mel appeared on the Kramer show. That was hilarious, Texas. When You're Smiling is a great song, but bless Mel's heart, he didn't understand the situation which made it even more homorous.

Today we have a special birthday, folks.

Albert Schweitzer (14 January 1875 " 4 September 1965) was an Alsatian German-French theologian, musician, philosopher, and physician. He was born in Kaysersberg in the province of Alsace-Lorraine, from 1871 to 1918 in the German Empire. Schweitzer challenged both the secular view of Jesus as depicted by historical-critical methodology current at his time in certain academic circles, as well as the traditional Christian view, depicting a Jesus Christ who expected and predicted the imminent end of the world. He received the 1952 Nobel Peace Prize in 1953 for his philosophy of "Reverence for Life",[1] expressed in many ways, but most famously in founding and sustaining the Albert Schweitzer Hospital in Lambaréné, now in Gabon, west central Africa (then French Equatorial Africa). As a music scholar and organist, he studied the music of German composer Johann Sebastian Bach and influenced the Organ reform movement


Here he is playing Bach.

Good Evening Letty, Edgar, Baz, Panz et WA2K

(ooooh, lowering the tone a little...)

oooooooh, I heard this on the Radio2 today - just had to sing along

Atomic - Blondie

Hey, Iz. I played a lullabye for you last evening; it must have worked because you, Barry the Brit and your sis and Sboy looked as though you had been to the fountain of youth in St. Agustine. (not that you needed that potion)

Loved Deborah Harry, especially Heart of Glass. Thanks hun.

Here's one called Little Darlin' we'll send to all of you Brits.

Happy birthday, Al. I love Blondie's music.

Lil Darlin, meet Little Darlin

Oh, dear, edgar. We call everybody Darlin.

Have no idea who KT Oslin is, however.

I've heard KT a few times.
Here is another darlin.

edgar, I know that one, buddy. Darlin is a Southern expression. My mom used to sing this one to me when I was a wee thing, and I would cry every time. That's why I chose this Dixieland version, y'all.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5UwcapEv9c&feature=related

the lyrics have changed over the years, however

Molly Darlin' is another one.

I know that one, letty. Here is a cover of Bobby Darin's version of Darling Clementine.

My word, edgar. That was a great one by Bobby. Had no idea that he did that oldie. Thanks for the intro.

More synchronicity. Today is William Bendix's birthday and he did a movie about Babe Ruth. I was teasing Soccer George about him and now I know why.

John Goodman is the one that I saw about The Bambino, so I'm going to say goodnight with a scene from The Babe.

Had a sad early life so here's looking at you Babe,

From Letty with love

The Babe was a distant cousin to my grandmother. I liked William Bendix best on TV as Chester A Riley, in The Life of Riley.
