good morning , music lovers !
it's the birthday of Victoria De Los Angeles .
here she is with the " Irish Lullaby " .

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ke5n1kKFrjc

Quote:
Victoria de los Ángeles (1 November 1923 – 15 January 2005) was a Spanish Catalan operatic soprano and recitalist whose career began in the early 1940s and reached its height in the years from the mid-1950s to the mid-1960s. Her obituary in The Times noted that she must be counted “among the finest singers of the second half of the 20th century.[1] James Hinton, Jr., in Opera magazine (1954),[2] praised her "meltingly lovely middle voice". Elizabeth Forbes, writing in The Independent on 17 January 2005, also noted that "It is impossible to imagine a more purely beautiful voice than that of Victoria de los Ángeles at the height of her career in the 1950s and early 1960s". In her early years in particular she also sang a good deal of florid music. While she later made fewer appearances in opera, she continued to give recitals focusing on mostly French and Spanish art songs into the 1990s

Hurry back, edgar.

Barry, loved Inkabus All Hallows Eve and Ghost Town and all the other songs you and hbg play.

Of course I enjoyed Witchcraft by "old blue eyes".

Good morning to you as well, hbg. What a dear Irish Lullaby and thanks for the info on Victoria. Poncho will appreciate your reference to the Spanish Catalan.

Great seeing euroGeorge back with us.

How about a birthday guy for today.

@edgarblythe,
Thanks for the comment, edgar and for restoring our signal. When you get the chance, listen to that great Canadian's tribute.

Eddie and Bing? Know the crooner but just vaguely remember Eddie Bracken. Thanks for the memory jog.

Here's a great combination of my mom's favorite vocalists.

I really like Bing and the Mills boys. I find Clay Aiken hard to listen to. Not knocking the songs.

@edgarblythe,
Thanks again for your comments, edgar.

Marty Robbins doing Little Richard's Long Tall Sally was funny and good. Ah, dear Marty.

Here's another long ago group. They're doing a Pete Seeger song.

@edgarblythe,
edgar, thanks again for your comment. I don't know Barry McGuire, but my favorite by him was Calling Me Home. The visuals were beautiful as well.

I tried to find a decent tribute to Stephen Crane whose birthday is today, but no luck. So I'll say goodnight with a poem by him and a lovely song.

Little Birds of the Night

LITTLE birds of the night
Aye, they have much to tell
Perching there in rows
Blinking at me with their serious eyes
Recounting of flowers they have seen and loved
Of meadows and groves of the distance
And pale sands at the foot of the sea
And breezes that fly in the leaves.
They are vast in experience
These little birds that come in the night
Stephen Crane

I guess we remember him best for The Red Badge of Courage which was simply a wound.

Now Stairway to the Stars.

Don't know where everyone is, but we still think of the world.

From Letty with love to all.

Quote:
James William Anderson III (born November 1, 1937), better known as Bill Anderson, is an American country music singer, songwriter and television personality. He has released more than 40 studio albums and has reached No. 1 on the country charts seven times: "Mama Sang a Song" (1962), "Still" (1963), "I Get the Fever" (1966), "For Loving You" (with Jan Howard, 1967), "My Life (Throw It Away If I Want To)" (1969), "World of Make Believe" (1974), and "Sometimes" (with Mary Lou Turner, 1976). Twenty-nine more of his singles have reached the top ten.

One of the most successful songwriters in country music history, Anderson is also a popular singer, earning the nickname "Whisperin' Bill" for his soft vocal style and occasional spoken narrations.[1] Artists who have recorded his material include Ray Price, Connie Smith, Lynn Anderson, Jim Reeves, Kenny Chesney, and George Strait.


i'm sure we all have listened to his songs over the years .
