Good mid morning from here in Florida, contributors and listeners.

Hurry back edgar and I loved your goodnight song. Didn't know From a Jack to a King by Ned Miller, but it was a good one.

hbg, Really love that guy playing organ, and I knew the first two classics: Going Home and No Other Love. Didn't know the last part, however.

Will's Cuckoo Waltz was delightful. My mom had a cuckoo clock.

Today is Bruce Lee's birthday, so here is a tribute to him. His death was labeled "misadventure".

@Barry The Mod,
Welcome back, Brit. What a fantastic photo. Didn't know Chubby Newsome nor her song You Better Find a Job. Don't know that guy Paul doing Mid Air. It was rather sad, and I think his voice has seen better days.

Here's a bit of interesting news:


A woman caught riding a manatee, an endangered species in Florida, turned herself in to police.


Gutierrez was arrested while working at her job at Sears department store in Tampa. Prosecutors were initially hesitant to press charges because police did not witness the incident, but the second-degree charges were forwarded to the state’s attorney office.

ABC News reported that the Florida Manatee Sanctuary Act states, “It is unlawful for any person at any time, by any means, or in any manner intentionally or negligently to annoy, molest, harass, or disturb or attempt to molest, harass, or disturb any manatee.”

Manatees have been on the endangered species list since 1967 as populations have dwindled as leisure boating has become popular in recent decades. Manatees swim slowly near the surface and are often seen with scars that clearly as the result of run-ins with motorboat propellers.

Gutierrez told police she was new to the area and did not know touching manatees was illegal. She faces up to six months in jail and a maximum $500 fine, according to the Los Angeles Times. Police say the manatee was not injured but Gutierrez did interfere with a mating ritual.

Manatees can grow up to 12 feet and weigh up to 1,800 pounds. The sherriff’s office told the Tampa Bay Times that the animals are an essential fabric of Florida society and should not be bothered.

“Go ride a Jet Ski,” the sheriff said. “Don't use animals.”

Now a lovely song to go with those sea creatures.

@edgarblythe,
Thanks again for restoring our signal, edgar. Always appreciate your comments.

The Beat Goes On is one of my favorites by them. Too bad about Sonny.

Here's one by Cher that I like.

Quote:
Edward Thomas "Eddie" Rabbitt (November 27, 1941 – May 7, 1998) was an American singer-songwriter and musician. His career began as a songwriter in the late 1960s, springboarding to a recording career after composing hits such as "Kentucky Rain" for Elvis Presley in 1970 and "Pure Love" for Ronnie Milsap in 1974. Later in the 1970s, Rabbitt helped to develop the crossover-influenced sound of country music prevalent in the 1980s with such hits as "Suspicions" and "Every Which Way but Loose." His duets "Friends and Lovers" and "You and I", with Juice Newton and Crystal Gayle respectively, later appeared on the soap operas Days of Our Lives and All My Children.

In September 2007 he released an album with his other band PreNup. Fellow musicians are Cait O'Riordan (Ex-Pogues) and Dave Clarke (Hothouse Flowers).

edgar, Thanks again for your comment, and really like that version of I've Never Been to Spain by Hoyt.

hbg, Dance Time was great. Yep, you can't make that organ do anything but play loud.

Ah, I know Eddie Rabbit, and Love a Rainy Night was great. Don't Go by that Irishman was a goodie as well. I wish euroGeorge were here but I think the guys name is pronounced O Brennan. Incidentally, thanks for the info, Ontario.

Going to say goodnight with two songs.

First, another by Al Jolson.

Now, a new face on the horizon, but first more info.

Janet Seidel is an Australian-born jazz vocalist and pianist.

Her albums, recorded with musicians including her brother, bassist David Seidel have been nominated for prizes such as the ARIA Music Awards. Her album "Moon of Manakoora" won the Bell Award for Best Australian Jazz Vocal Album in 2006.

Love this moon song.

Great to have London and Canada with us.

From Letty with love that is everlasting.
