@eurocelticyankee,
I have only given you one side of Buffy. She is also a protest/folk singer.

@edgarblythe,
I just listened to her again and I'm sure she'd grow on you,
she has got a lovely voice.
For some strange reason she reminded me of this lady. (finally got it)
Mary Hopkin.

@edgarblythe,
She has that same inflection in her singing voice as Dolly Parton.
Pretty unique voice, I see shes a native American, so no surprise
she sings protest songs. I just listened to another couple of her tracks,
"Smack Water Jack" and "You know how to turn on those lights".
Really good, I notice as well shes still touring and has just been in
Europe although she didn't play Ireland. Fair play to her.

Another great lady.

@edgarblythe,
I Cried a Tear is a nice song, not familiar with Lavern Baker
though, first time hearing her, sweet voice.
I was checking out Buffy's website and had a listen to her new
album, "Running for the drum". It's very good. Here's a couple
of tracks I liked.
No No Keshagesh.

If she comes this way again I'll definitely go see her.

My first time for hearing that Buffy material. I would go if she came to Houston.
Another artist I love who is now dead is author of many hit songs. I don't think she personally recorded any hits though.

@edgarblythe,
I've never heard Laura sing before but I recognise a couple
of her songs. She died very young, 50, a real shame.
Well it's half past midnight here Ed so I'll say good night and
leave you with a couple of songs. Oh and thanks for the intro
to the wonderful Buffy.

Adele - Someone Like You.

Bangles - Manic Monday.

The adel and Bangles songs are very good. I have heard of Bangles previously, but not familiar with the music.
Saying good night with the Wizards.

First, allow me to thank all of you who have contributed to our cyber radio station and kept us on the air. Sorry that I cannot comment on each one, but I have a studio full of folks who have been doing their own celebrating.

Happy Birthday, America.

and for the beginning of the day here and a memory of fireworks at the beach, I shall do two songs for our listeners.

First, a funny from Hugh Laurie.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60JbMPOj0cY

Now, a great quartet.

(if I hear one more miniature bomb go off, I think I shall call the whole thing off)

@edgarblythe,
A Happy 4th of July to all the Yankee Doodle Dandy's out there.

Hi Miss Letty, now you take it easy with the wine. Razz
What a quartet Paul McCartney, Rod Stewart, Joe Cocker & Eric Clapton,
it doesn't get much better than that.
Donald O'Connor was great, a multi-talented man. Good video to go with
your Yankee Doodle Dandy Ed.
Here's Jimmy, see!.
