Ray Charles

edgar, Really liked your goodnight song by Tommy. It's All in the Game says a lot. Vaughn Monro's Racing With the Moon was good as well as was Ray's Moanin' .

Two songs for the morning here in my little studio.

First, inspired by euro, more Creedence.

good afternoon to all !

a fine ( canadian born ) folksinger has his birthday today :

Welcome back, hbg. Bell Bottom Trousers is funny. Just noticed that he also did Barnacle Bill the Sailor.

Here's another oldie whose birthday is today. I know him because my friend Roy(Rip) played this one on trumpet.

here are the lyrics

Waking skies - at sunrise
Every sunset too
Seems to be - bringing me
Memories of you

Here and there - every where
Scenes that we once knew
And they all - just recall
Memories of you

(Oh) How I wish I could forget those, (those) happy yesteryears
That have left a rosary of tears

Your face beams - in my dreams
(In) Spite of all (that) I do
(And) Everything - seems to bring
Memories of you

Eubie and Bell Bottoms are good ones.

The tale of Last year's Man

edgar, Thanks for your comments. Love Cohen's The Tale of Last Year's man.

Anyone remember, "A Man for All Seasons"? If not, here is some info on the man.

Sir Thomas More (/ˈmɔr/; 7 February 1478 – 6 July 1535), known to Roman Catholics as Saint Thomas More since 1935 was an English lawyer, social philosopher, author, statesman, and noted Renaissance humanist. He was an important councillor to Henry VIII of England and was Lord Chancellor from October 1529 to 16 May 1532.[3] He was canonized by Pope Pius XI in 1935 as one of the early martyrs of the schism that separated the Church of England from Rome in the 16th century. In 2000, Pope John Paul II declared him patron of Catholic statesmen and politicians.

Here's a tribute to him as today is his birthday; I call this a history lesson via song.

I remember More for Utopia. Don't know a whole lot more about him.
Here is Edgar's other daughter, Polly
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVRz56EocAY

Hilarious, edgar. Moonlight in Vermont is great by that Polly.

Now, a joke.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LI4HV4HUHb4

And, Deano sings a lovely one.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ft6CA3OFIok

I grew up a fan of Edgar and Charlie.
Misty Moonlight is a good one too. I know it best by Jerry Wallace, but Deano does it justice.

Jimmie Rodgers

Ah, edgar, I love Jimmie Rodger's singing It's Over. Once again, we appreciate your comments.

Going to say goodnight with two songs. First, Another Jimmie.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leSS2zI3HW4

Now, a new couple to me, Daniel O Donnell and Mary Duff. Mary is Irish.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eo9xnkIyjiQ

Great to have Ontario via Germany with us, and briefly, euro.

From Letty with love to the world

I like both of your songs, letty.

Rick Nelson and the Stone Canyon Band

Good morning. I posted a tribute to Dickens, for his 201ST birthday earlier. But now I want to show a glimpse of Dickens World theme park.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ranTgi1o-po
Good morning. See you all later on the radio.

edgar, thanks again for your comments, and as you know, I love Rick Nelson's Garden Party.

Dickens World Theme Park was great. Hurry back, Texas.

Strange, Just noticed that George c. Scott did the Christmas Carol.

Two songs for us this morning. First a birthday guy.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aHXqoiBIys

Now, One Note Samba.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZegHk4qDaQ, and the lyrics

This is just a little samba
Built upon a single note
Other notes are sure to follow
But the root is still that note

Now this new note is the consequence of the one we've just been through
As i'm bound to be the unavoidable consequence of you

There's so many people who can talk and talk and talk
And just say nothing or nearly nothing
I have used up all the scale i know and at the end i've come
To nothing i mean nothing

So i come back to my first note as i must come back to you
I will pour into that one note all the love i feel for you
Any one who wants the whole show show do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ci-do
He will find himself with no show better play the note you know

Righteous Brothers

James Dean - I wonder if he would be so well remembered, had he lived longer.
I like the one note song, letty.

Some mambo to follow that samba:

Little Richard

edgar, Thanks again for your comments. Love The Richteous Bros. doing Soul and Inspiration. Ah, Texas, that's when Richard was really little. Love that guy,

Wandel, Your mambo no. 5 was great. Good to see you back with us on the radio.

Hasn't been a good day for me, so maybe this Canadian will help me out,

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bU_cs25Ffg8

and, to cheer us all up a bit.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIT4Hk6YP5o

Maybe things will be better tomorrow for those of us with problems.

From Letty with love forever.

Looks like Buble is trying to do all the songs.
That's got to be Perry Como labeled as Dean Martin.
