What can we say about Nat that has not already been said? The song is perfect for him.

panz, I love that cajun music, and Kolinda was great.

Funny, edgar. Doug Kershaw's Don't Mess with my Toot Toot had to do with some sort of instrument, right? More cajun, and thanks.

Rockman, That "angel" song by Lenny Kravitz was sad but beautiful. Reminds me of Frank Sinatra's "But Beautiful"

I guess most of us know that cajun music was the result of the evacuation of the people from Gran Pre, Nova Scotia. Strange, 'cause I just cited Longfellow's Evangeline as a great piece of poetry on Robert Gentle's thread.

Here's something a little different.

An interesting trio, too.

The Foundations were a British soul band, active from 1967 to 1970. The group, made up of West Indians, White British, and a Sri Lankan, are best known for their two biggest hits, "Baby Now That I've Found You" (a Number One hit in the UK Singles Chart and Canada, and subsequently Top 10 in the U.S.) and written by Tony Macaulay and John MacLeod; and "Build Me Up Buttercup" (a number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100) and #1 in Canada co-written by Macaulay with Mike d'Abo, at the time the lead vocalist with Manfred Mann. The group was the first multi-racial group to have a number 1 hit in the UK in the 1960s

"Toot Toot" refers to the object of the man's affection, letty. "When she born
The doctor slap her behind
Say You sweet little toot toot.

edgar, I guessed that about "toot toot"; I was just joshin' ya.

Don't know Jack Scott, but My True Love was nice.

Rockman, I said the SONG was sad; so you Played Stone Flower. (great, incidentally)and not Moon Flower. Razz

edgar, You know that I love Little Richard. Don't know Jenny, however. I guess one of my favs by him is Long Tall Sally.

Time for me to say goodnight, and here is "But Beautiful" by the Bill Evans trio and Stan Getz. Lyrics by Sinatra will follow.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mzrh3sCK4DM&feature=related

Love is funny or it's sad
Or it's quiet or it's mad
It's a good thing or it's bad
But beautiful

Beautiful to take a chance and if you fall, you fall
And I'm thinking I wouldn't mind at all
Love is tearful or it's gay
It's a problem or it's play
It's a heartache either way
But beautiful
And I'm thinking if you were mine, I'd never let you go
And that would be but beautiful, I know.

Love is tearful or it's gay
It's a problem or it's play
It's a heartache either way
But it's beautiful
And I'm thinking if you were mine, I'd never let you go
And that would be but beautiful, I know.

To all of you everywhere,

From Letty with love

But Beautiful is some fine music, all right.
I'm closing out with perhaps Don Gibson's most successful song.

Good morning WA2K folks

hey, dys. Wanna buy some weed? I'm selling it for a dollar.

edgar, Don't know Don Gibson, but I love that song and Johnny Horton's Battle of New Orleans is great. Know most of his songs.

Today is Bobby McFerrin's birthday. Here's a lovely one for the early morning.

Amazing how that man sings like an instrument.
