WA2K Radio is now on the air

back to the roaring twenties - the time of my parents .

hbg, I played that for your daughter once. There was a revival of that era later and believe it or not, I can still do the charleston dance.

Here's another era of that particular time.

Don't forget to check our "Bond, James Bond." Sorry to be so late in arriving to our studio. Still not well, y'all.

( what a great performance ! )

Hi edgarblythe, Letty and hamburgboy the Eagle is back on deck albeit still in Hospital. However things are looking up after 5 months in Hospital I may be going home next week. Enjoyed your music.

Hi, Dutchy. Welcome back. I know you are looking forward to getting home. Congratulations, even.

edgar, thanks for your comment, and I really enjoyed Judy's Early Morning Rain as well as Marty's Spanish Lullaby.

hbg, Night Train is great by Louis, but Keely doesn't look too happy with it.

Up early today as I have things to do

Dutchy, so good to see you here, and this one is for you from all of us including your lovely wife. Hope she doesn't mind WA2K radio being her proxy.

First, the jazz version by Art, then the lyrics.

As beats the ocean surf upon the sand
So beats our heart for you
For just as constantly as sea meets sand
So beats our heart for you

We'll always be true
Faithful to you
Skies have been blue
Since you came in view

As beats the rhythm of a mighty band
So beats our heart for you, dear
So beats our heart for you

Good song by Art.

Today is the Norwegian Constitution day. 199 years ago a group of people decided it was time to stick it to both the Danes and the Swedes and start doing things their own way. But we still love them!

So congratulations to those who were lucky enough to be born here. We all won the lottery, so I'll feel grateful rather than proud to be Norwegian today.

good morning to all !

belated birthday greetings to Richard Tauber :



" i kiss your hand , madame ! "

edgar, thanks again for your comment and as you know I love "the velvet fog".

Cyracuz, Welcome back to you, my friend, and to add to hbg's tribute, more Norway.

Aloha again. I've been preoccupied the last few days, so how bout a jazz triple header? (I-J-K)

First off, Bill Evans trio, with bassist Chuck Israels, on "If you could see me now." ~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-ktJKj9NbA

Next, the Jazz Crusaders (before they renamed themselves the Crusaders to pursue the pop/funk market), with "Young Rabbits" ~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjZnYe2Hr18

Lastly, Stan Kenton with "Intermission Riff" ~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KA5m7gzyc7M
