@edgarblythe,
Thanks again for your comment. Love that one by Jackson Browne. I remember him best for Doctor My Eyes, however.

Here's another Brown doing a song by Gershwin.

and, the lyrics.


Oh, sweet and lovely lady, be good
Oh, lady, be good to me
I am so awf'ly misunderstood
So lady, be good to me

Oh, please have some pity
I'm all alone in this big city

I tell you I'm just a lonesome babe in the wood,
So lady be good to me.


Oh lady be good to me.

@Letty,
I knew Jackson Browne's version of Take it Easy before hearing the Eagles do it. He co-wrote the song with I think one of the Eagles.
I like Gershwin's music, letty.

@Barry The Mod,
a response via London. I remember Take it Easy by The Eagles, edgar. Glad you informed us of Jackson's part in that.

As you know, I love that Irish Troubador . Hmmm, maybe he will coax euro back with us.

Barry, don't know Mohawks The Champ, but it was great. Thanks again for the introduction.

Time for me to say goodnight, and once again I will do so with Andrea.

Nice to have London and Ontario with us.

From Letty with love to the world.

@edgarblythe,
today is the birthday of Frank Zappa -
let's listen to him performing " Bobby Brown " :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-s-wzTRwJMg

Quote:
Frank Vincent Zappa (December 21, 1940 – December 4, 1993) was an American composer, singer-songwriter, guitarist, recording engineer, record producer and film director. In a career spanning more than 30 years, Zappa wrote rock, jazz, orchestral and musique concrète works. He also directed feature-length films and music videos, and designed album covers. Zappa produced almost all of the more than 60 albums he released with the band The Mothers of Invention and as a solo artist. While in his teens, he acquired a taste for 20th-century classical composers such as Edgard Varèse, Igor Stravinsky, and Anton Webern along with 1950s rhythm and blues music. He began writing classical music in high school, while at the same time playing drums in rhythm and blues bands; he later switched to electric guitar.

@hamburgboy,
Replying to all via hbg.

edgar, The first time I ever heard of Buddy Holly was because of Don McLean. Then I became interested and watched that movie of Gary doing his life. I think The Beatles may have been inspired by his "crickets".

Hurry back, Barry. Those two songs by Shirley Brown were great as was Simon and Garfunkel's Silent Night replete with the news.

You Ain't Woman Enough to Take My man reminded me of Santa Tomas e Lucas. We judged a contest together, and some great big woman came on stage and sang that one. Dan(RIP) said, "I believed her". He had Parkinson's Disease as well.

It's Dec. 22 here, hamburg boy, and we did many of your Dec. 21 tributes, but I still love Anna doing La Boheme from Puccini. Great.

Thinking of Saturday Night Fever by the BeeGees. Rip, Robin. The other two were born today.

@Barry The Mod,
Welcome back, Barry. Yep, Love I'll Be Home for Christmas by the Beach Boys. They were inspired by The Four Freshmen as well. Remember the two versions of There Hearts were Full of Spring?

Let's listen again to the original four.

@edgarblythe,
Zing Went the Strings of my Heart was a good one by the Coasters, and thanks again for your comments.

Speaking of strings, how about violin strings, Texas?

Here's a great Russian song.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2XLKabsYMg

and, the lyrics.

1.
Dark and burning eyes, Dark as midnight skies
Full of passion flame, full of lovely game
I'm in love with you, I'm afraid of you.
Days when I met you made me sad and blue.
2.
Oh, not for nothing are you darker than the deep!
I see mourning for my soul in you,
I see a triumphant flame in you:
A poor heart immolated in it.
3.
But I am not sad, I am not sorrowful,
My fate is soothing to me:
All that is best in life that God gave us,
In sacrifice I returned to the fiery eyes!
