@hamburgboy,

hbg, Thanks for being our dj yesterday and today. Loved everyone of your songs and I wish I could comment on all of them, Ontario. Suffice it to say, you know your music.

Two songs from here in our Florida studio. First, a birthday guy.

Good afternoon, edgar. Love Amen by Harry although I know it best by Sidney.

Here's one that I like, and I hope our listeners do as well.

@edgarblythe,

Don't know Just like Me by those raiders. I think they got their name from Longfellow.

Here's another one that I like, edgar, cause it reflects the scary sea here.

Another sea song

@hamburgboy,

hbg, loved all three of your great songs. I do remember that Over the Waves was a match for The Most Beautiful Night of the year. They played that on the hobby horses at the carnival when I was a kid.

Here are a couple of songs to match, Ontario.

First, The Ocean.

@edgarblythe,

I love the "singing ranger", edgar, and he and that ocean should "roll on thou deep and dark blue ocean roll. " He and Lord Byron make a great combo. Razz

Also enjoyed Tony's Halfway to Paradise.

Going to say goodnight with two songs, folks.

First another by Hank, and he'll take us around the world.

Now, one by the Bee Gees. (see if you can find me in there)

Always great to have our trio on the radio.

From Letty with Love and a smile
