@hamburgboy,
Responding to all via hbg.

edgar, Loved Christmas Morning by Kenny Loggins. Thanks again for your comment.

Ontario, Thanks for the memory of King Oliver. Spotted "sachmo" in that group. Both of his songs with the group were good.

Particularly enjoyed that Swedish Sailor march, buddy.

A birthday girl, yawl.

I discovered that "little sparrow" from a guy who was from Montreal and found out that she had done the original Three Bells.

@edgarblythe,
Thanks for the comment, edgar.

That's one by the "jester" that I didn't know so you sent me searching.

Dylan's song revolves around the mishaps of a Mr. Jones, who keeps blundering into strange situations, and the more questions he asks, the less the world makes sense to him. Critic Andy Gill called the song "one of Dylan's most unrelenting inquisitions, a furious, sneering, dressing-down of a hapless bourgeois intruder into the hipster world of freaks and weirdoes which Dylan now inhabited"

Thanks for the introduction to that song, Texas.

Wonder if he's met Miss Jones.

Sorry for the abrupt ending.

@edgarblythe,
Thanks again for your comment, edgar. Ah the sassy Miss Sarah. Love Broken Hearted Melody by that talented lady.

Well, you had Bobby Darin doing Robert Burns, so here is a question by Nancy.

@Letty,
One of Nancy's better efforts, in my view. Incidentally, the organist in Dylan's Mr Jones was Dylan himself.

@edgarblythe,
Thanks, edgar, I agree about Nancy. Had no idea that "the jester" played organ. What a talented man.

Loved Johnny's Misty.

I was looking at tomorrow's birthdays and came across this guy.

Stephen William Bragg — known as Billy Bragg — is an English alternative rock musician and left-wing activist. His music blends elements of folk music, punk rock and protest songs, and his lyrics mostly deal with political or romantic themes. He did a song for Phil Ochs, but I decided to play this one.

Billy Bragg is a good artist, letty. Not a bad song he did.

@edgarblythe,
the birthday of great american folk singer is today : Phil Ochs
( i'm sure you all know him )

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Greffl1UVYc

Quote:
Philip David Ochs ( /ˈoʊks/; December 19, 1940 – April 9, 1976) was an American protest singer (or, as he preferred, a topical singer) and songwriter who was known for his sharp wit, sardonic humor, earnest humanism, political activism, insightful and alliterative lyrics, and distinctive voice. He wrote hundreds of songs in the 1960s and released eight albums in his lifetime.

@edgarblythe,
Once again responding to all via edgar.

Thanks, Texas for the comment on Billy Bragg. I think the rest of our folks missed it because his birthday isn't until tomorrow.

Also loved Bobby's Things.

Barry, don't know Carla Thomas, but Gee whiz it's Christmas was Great.

hbg, Thanks for the reminder of Phil Ochs. Just as edgar observed I didn't know it was his birthday either. Billy Bragg did one for him as well. Love that song by him as well as edgar's The Scorpion Returns.

Time for me to say goodnight, and I think that I shall do so with two version of this one by Perry Como.

From Letty with love to everyone

@Letty,
letty ,
there are quite a few more musical birthdays today - probably too many
to cover tham all - but i'll try my best .

here is one more m.b. : Marianne Faithfull

Quote:
Marianne Evelyn Faithfull (born 29 December 1946) is an English singer, songwriter and actress whose career has spanned five decades.

Her early work in pop and rock music in the 1960s was overshadowed by her struggle with drug abuse in the 1970s. During the first two-thirds of that decade, she produced only two little-noticed studio albums. After a long commercial absence, she returned late in 1979 with the highly acclaimed album, Broken English. Faithfull's subsequent solo work, often critically acclaimed, has at times been overshadowed by her personal history.

From 1966 to 1970, she had a highly publicised romantic relationship with Rolling Stones' lead singer, Mick Jagger. She co-wrote "Sister Morphine", which is featured on the Stones' Sticky Fingers album.
