edgar, Thanks for the "jester" doing Something There is About You. Didn't know that one, but he did it well. Love Tuxedo Junction by Glenn. We'll never know what happened to him, I guess.

Thanks for restoring our signal, edgar, and that one by Hugh was great as was The Swinging Shepherd Blues. Do know that one, Texas.

Just found out they've done a remake of Thor Hyderdahl's Kon Tiki. Remember him?

Here's a theme to the man who did great things with his balsa wood raft.

Going to say goodnight with two songs. First, one for our Irish friends. Here's some info on him.

Gary Moore
Musician
Robert William Gary Moore, was a Northern Irish musician, most widely recognised as a singer and guitarist. Today is his birthday.

Now, for our German/Austrian friends.

First some info on him.

Franz Peter Schubert (b. Vienna, 31 January 1797; d. Vienna 19 November 1828) was an Austrian composer. Although he died at the age of 31 he composed over one thousand pieces of music. Some of his works are among the greatest music ever written. He wrote wonderful melodies. There were other great composers who lived and worked in Vienna: Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, but Schubert is the only one who was born in Vienna. He was the last great composer of the Classical music period, and one of the first of the Romantic period.

How his wonderful goodnight song.
