WA2K Radio is now on the air

I just saw a big TV documentary, which was Billy Joel playing the last concert at the old Shea Stadium, Queens, New York.

It was very good; he had Tony Bennett, various stars, and Paul McCartney came too, prompting memories of the old Beatles gig there in 1965.

What's wrong with pairing the best of close harmony singing with the best piano player ever?
Nothing?

Singers Unlimited with the Oscar Peterson Trio: The Shadow of your Smile.

So many wonderful songs on WA2K radio.

hbg, Going Home was great on that organ. I remember it from The Snake Pit so long ago, and Olivia Dehaviland is still with us.

McTag, She's Always a Woman was great as was The Swingle Singers and Oscar doing The Shadow of Your Smile.

I know you like church music McTag, and I love Andrea, so here is one that my mom loved.

Sorry if I missed anyone, but hey, y'all missed by two also.

Saying goodnight with two songs. Edgar once said that he had feet of lead.

Had a wonderful evening with Carrie. For the first time in ages, I had crab legs. Delicious. So nice having Scotland and Ontario with us. Hope our friend from Dublin is alright.

From Letty with Love to the world.

You likely can't dance that well, with crab legs, letty. On the other hand -

good night / good morning to all - and happy birthday to Howard Keel .

I know all of your songs, letty. I enjoyed the look at the 20s. See u all later

Anyone remember Charlie Chaplin? Here's Nat doing a version of his song.

Beatles Moonlight

My first introduction was via Bud and the King Cole trio, edgar.

Funny one by The Fab Four. Moonlight Bay is great. Didn't know that one, so once again thanks for the introduction.

Love this one by Nat.

I know that one by Nat and a couple of other artists.

The Wind Sings a Cowboy Song

I cannot believe what fantastic harmony those guys produced, edgar. Who would have thought.

Today is this guy's birthday, but first some info.

Bob Dylan

Funny, edgar. "the jester" always gives me a smile.

Here's another version of Corinna, Corinna.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thAbnp5EC-U

here is a similar one from the ROARING TWENTIES :

" I've Got It (but it don't do me no good) "... ...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ddMt_O9bA8

Those two Corrinas are my favorite versions of the song, letty.

I like Annette Hanshaw very much.

Now I gonna tell you bout oo poo pa doo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8r3YpYVDg4

Welcome back, hbg. Didn't know that one by Annette, but it was a goodie. I think I did five foot two for ehBeth one time.

edgar, thanks again for your comments and Billy Thorpe was funny.

Going to say goodnight a bit early as I'm a bit overdue for sleep.

Tomorrow is Julie Christie's birthday, so here is one for her.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=old4K4Tpo8c

and "the misty miss Christie' did this one, but I decided on an instrumental with lyrics.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AWyyVQg300

and, the lyrics.

This is a lovely way to spend an evening. can’t think of anything I’d rather do
This is a lovely way to spend an evening, can’t think of anyone as lovely as you

A casual stroll through a garden. a kiss by a lazy lagoon
Catching a breath of moonlight, humming our favorite tune

This is a lovely way to spend an evening
I want to save all my nights and spend them with you

That will be dedicated to everyone everywhere.

Great having Ontario via Germany with us.

From Letty with love to the world
