WA2K Radio is now on the air

I like the Jackie Deshannon song and Hank Williams was my very first "favorite singer." Jimi had a few good points, I guess.

I lived the late Sixties with Phil Ochs. Suffered the same trauma. Was devastated when he went downhill and eventually killed himself.

Ain't Misbehavin

Hank junior is one talented musician, I didn't know
Hank senior had died so young, 29. pity.

Hank Jr is good much of the time. Hank Sr is good pert near all the time. Hank III - Well - (it was hard to find a song by him sanitary enough to play)

Jeez, What was that Ed!.
The Times They Are A Changing.
(not always for the better)-----(Hank snr wouldn't be too impressed)
Or maybe I'm just being an ol' fuddy duddy, what?
It's like Ozzy Osbourne going country.

I am a Dylan fan big time.
Someone I know is dating a cousin (a time or so removed) of Conway Twitty

Conway & sam really nailed it, excellent.
So you're a fan of Dylan and Phil Ochs, me thinks you're
a rebel at heart like meself.
Here's Christy Moore singing Only Our Rivers Run Free.

Don't get me wrong I'm glad we have put a lot of this
behind us and embraced the shared traits & ambitions of
both communities and both islands. Never want to see this
horror again, but you have to remember those on all sides
who were willing to die for their beliefs.
But that said I would some day like to see a united Ireland.

G'nite Ed, Letty & all at WA2 K.

Good one, euro. Here is one by my favorite Irishman

Goodnight, dear euro George. Love that song, buddy. You're a welcome addition to our radio station.

edgar, you have done so much to help us with your comments. Thanks, Texas.

dj. Welcome back. Your sis and I marched in a band at one time. Didn't know that about Phil Ochs, however.

Two songs for my early goodnight, y'all.

First Fats Waller who played the pipe organ. My older sister's husband clued me in on that.

I told our edgar that I had watched The Man from Snowy River with Kirk Douglas, and I also saw him in Lust for Life, the story of Vincent Van Gogh.

Here is Don McLean again with his song.

Someone added yin and yang to that starry starry night.

Goodnight world,

from Letty with love and admiration

I didn't know Harry was from Cork, with his Irish brogue . Very good.
Good Nite again Miss Letty I'll listen to Fats & Don and then call it a night.

I love the music of both fats and don, letty. I had not heard that one by fats previously.

I am going to play Fats Domino and then call it a night.

Good one, hbb. I like the song and the treatment of it.

Good morning, radiofolk. I will return later today. Have a good one.

hbg, I know The Cockroach. Love that one except when I have an invasion.

Thanks, Canada.

Hurry back, edgar, and thanks for all of your comments on what we play here.

You hurry back as well, Irish.

I watched an episode of "I Shouldn't be Alive" and it was about a man who was stranded on a rock after his raft was tossed in the air by rapids on the Colorado River. He got hypothermia and I found out that the power of suggestion can be real. I suddenly found myself very cold. He was rescued, however, and fully recovered.

Two songs for the beginning of the day, y'all.

First, a tribute to a birthday boy, Mr. Bean.

Now, The Merrymen with one about sand and Marianne.

G'day all at WA2K.
Enjoyed the Merrymen. (tally me banana).
I have to laugh every time I see Rowan Atkinson, I have a guy works for me the odd time
& he's the spitting image of him, off course he's called Mr Bean.

Creedence

Hey, Irish. I love that song. I used to think it was about a werewolf but it isn't.

In Rolling Stone issue 649, John Fogerty explained that the lyrics were inspired by a movie called The Devil And Daniel Webster, in which a hurricane wipes out most of a town. This is where he got the idea for the words "I feel the hurricane blowin', I hope you're quite prepared to die." Overall, he said the song is about the "apocalypse that was going to be visited upon us."

Often, the "bad moon on the rise" was heard as "bathroom on the right".

Thanks for your comments on what we play here.

Today is "The Prophet's" birthday. Love this one, euroGeorge.
