WA2K Radio is now on the air

Good morning folks. Lots of good music was played last night, which I haven't the time to listen to just now. Will try to make time for it later. See ya all in the afternoon.

Wow! Our hbg was on a roll last evening. Wish I could comment on all of his fantastic music, but I didn't sleep well last evening and don't feel too well today. You hurry back, Texas, and once again thanks for your comments.

I talked to a lady from Toronto for a long time at my branch bank, and we discussed many things. She told me that I was quite informative.

Nice to see our Rocky Top with us as well.

Since I was up past midnight, here's a great one by a marvelous jazz guitar man.

Sinatra again

Once again with your techie ability you have restored our signal, edgar.

Had no idea that Johnny and Hoagy wrote In The Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening. Old Blue Eyes did a great job. Don't know Jealous Lover, either. Thanks for the introduction, Texas.

Here's another surprise. Van Morrison does St. James Infirmary. I think there's a true story behind this one, but I'll have to check it out.

Jessica Lauren - Some Girls Do.

Welcome back, euroGeorge. Wondered where you were.

Roxy Music Oh Yeah was great. Don't know that one, but you played it on the right radio.

Welcome back to you as well, Brit. Some Girls Do by Jessica Lauren was wonderful. She's knows how to dance, right?

It's Sly Stone's birthday, so let's give a listen to him and his family.

Brook Benton

Great one, by Brook Benton. Don't know Thank You Pretty Baby, but it was fantastic.

Here's one to match, Texas.

I have loved Brook's music since about 1958.

Mangwane Mpulele

Thanks again for your comment. Wow! Harry is multilingual. Great one by him.

Here's a birthday man, and I chose it because of the "catfish" title. I had one of those run one of his fins through my thumb while I was trying to take him off the hook. It worked its way out two years later and was a white serrated sword type thing.

I like this guy.

Lightnin was a fine artist, letty.

Chuck Willis
Thunder and Lightning

edgar, The Steel behind the Plow was fantastic, and you sent me searching again.

Stanley Allison "Stan" Rogers (November 29, 1949 – June 2, 1983) was a Canadian folk musician and songwriter.

Rogers was noted for his rich, baritone voice and his finely crafted, traditional-sounding songs which were frequently inspired by Canadian history and the daily lives of working people, especially those from the fishing villages of the Maritime provinces and, later, the farms of the Canadian prairies and Great Lakes. Rogers died in a fire aboard Air Canada Flight 797 on the ground at the Greater Cincinnati Airport at the age of 33. His influence on Canadian folk music has been deep and lasting.

Also liked Chuck Willis version of THORS Day.

hbg, the Thunder and Lightning polka was perfect as was Sousa.

Well, we're not exactly lighting a torch, but although Andrea did this for The Olympics, I love it.

That's my goodnight song to euroGeorge, Barry the Brit, and you, of course, Ontario.

From Letty with love to all nations.

Where Do I Go

Good EARLY morning here, edgar. Loved both of those songs. Are they a group called Oasis? We'll have to dedicate Manchester, England to McTag.

Thanks again for your comment, buddy.

Two songs for the early morning here.

First a birthday man tribute.
