edgar, I love My Buddy. Bobby did a great job with that one. For the longest time, I thought that it had to do with the buddy system in the fox holes during WWII.

I did find this:

The music was written by Walter Donaldson, the lyrics by Gus Kahn. The song was published in 1922. It is universally believed this song was written about a World War I soldier who lost his friend in battle.

Dys, that was the most beautiful classical piece that I have heard in a while. Don't know Joaquin Rodriguez and can't find much about him, either.

Well, folks, here's an answer to Bobby's Buddy.

@edgarblythe,
Leonard Cohen is the "bees knees" edgar. Passing Through is good but rather sad.

Here's an old jazz standard (also referred to as Music from Beyond the Moon)

Johnny Hartman is fabulous with the "trane" man.

Imelda May - Kentish Town Waltz.


Do you remember we traipsed around from pub to pound shop up through Kentish Town
Only a fiver to our name, the drunk on the doorstep had more to our shame
Living over the offie had its trials the fights all night out there and inside
And those stews that lasted three days into four and the dreaded baliffs returned to our door,

but we stook with each other with all our might, we pulled it together and held on tight,
And I’m glad for us yeah I’m glad Machree but its nothing to anyone ‘cept you and me
There were wrongs for every right, there’s ups and there's downs
But you’re the one for all my life, my true love I have found, yeah you my love I found

I watched the moon cover the might of the sun,
The weird eerie light at a quarter past one, and I knew in my head as I lay in the bed that you’d stay in my heart til the day I was dead,
We killed each other and loved in time, and laughed til we almost cried, yeah we cried as well when it all went to Hell,
And my heart it broke til I swear it died

but we stook with each other with all our might, we pulled it together and held on tight,
And I’m glad for us yeah I’m glad Machree but its nothing to anyone except you and me
There were wrongs for every right, there’s ups and theres downs
But you’re the one for all my life, my true love I have found, yeah you my love I found


Oh you’re good at the things I’m hopeless at and I notice what you ignore
But its when I see you’re not prefect for me, its then I love you more and more,

and we stook with each other with all our might, we pulled it together and held real tight,
And I’m glad for us, I’m glad Machree but its nothing to anyone except you and me
There were wrongs for every right, there’s ups and theres downs
But you’re the one for all my life, my true love I have found, yeah you my love I found

Ooo oooo

There were wrongs for every right, there’s ups and theres downs
But you’re the one for all my life, my true love I have found, yeah you my love I found

I posted this a few months back.Time for another listen....

Tony Christie -Louise.

When he saw her getting of the bus
It seemed to wipe away the years
Her face was older, just a little rough
But her eyes were still so clear
He drank his coffee and he hurried out
Across before she walked away
Then he approached her like a little child
Too scared for what he had to say
"Hello, Louise,
Remember me?
Now should we part
Or stay awhile?
As if we were still lovers"

She took a moment just to recognise
The man she'd known so well before
And as he started to apologise
Lost any bitterness she bore
She gently put her finger on his lips
To let him know she understood
And with her suit case standing on the floor
Embraced him like a lover would
He told Louise
"You look so good
It's just you see
You make me feel
As if we were still lovers"

And though they talked for just a little time
Before she said she had to go
He saw the meeting as a tiny sign
That told him all he had to know
And so Louise
Waved from the bus
And as she left
She gave that smile
As if they were still lovers

Good morning, WA2K listeners and contributors.

Ah, edgar. Love Sidewalks of New York. I remember as a kid that I tapped danced to that one. Thanks Texas, and we always appreciate your comments.

Enjoyed your music as well, cowboy. Especially liked Thirsty Boots.

Hurry back, Brit. Incidentally, who is this guy, Fawkes? Razz

I think my favorite of yours was Tony Christie's Louise.

Slept so wonderfully last evening. What a little red wine can do.

Here's one by Lady Day saying the same about moonlight.

Discovery at Night

Xenon lights illuminate space shuttle Discovery on Launch Pad 39A following the retraction of the rotating service structure. The structure provides weather protection and access to the shuttle while it awaits lift off on the pad. Launch of Discovery on the STS-133 mission to the International Space Station is set for Nov. 5. During the 11-day mission, Discovery and its six crew members will deliver the Permanent Multipurpose Module, packed with supplies and critical spare parts, as well as Robonaut 2, to the orbiting laboratory. Discovery, which will be flying its 39th mission, is scheduled to be retired following this mission. This will be the 133rd Space Shuttle Program mission and the 35th shuttle voyage to the space station.

Thanks, edgar, for your comments.

Ah, a fuel leak has again delayed the Discovery launch. It is COLD here. Thanks, Brit. I'll keep an eye out for the final voyage.

In the mean time, here's a birthday boy.

@Francis,
Liked that song, Francis, especially this last verse.

All I know is the bleeding in my heart
And the healing in your touch
All I know is that you gave everything
So let that be enough
'Cause it's all I know

Hey, you don't know what love is until you've learned the meaning of the blues.

Another afternoon session.

Today is Roy Rogers' birthday, and of all things, a tribute by Sir Elton.
