Sorry that I cannot acknowledge each song, but I do suggest that that everyone reply to topic as it keeps the format of the radio in tact.

hbg, my favorite by you was Bells Across the Meadows. It reminded me of The Bells of St. Mary's. Loved Blow the Man Down, too. Enjoyed Leo as well.

Latin George, I always enjoy what you play. Slow John by The Kingston Trio was great. Greenland Whale Fishermen by The Weavers was one that I'm certain our listeners enjoyed as do I.

euro, That was a great song, dear Irishman. It's Saturday here.

Today is this guy's birthday.

I don't know much about Banderas. The two movies I tried to watch him in held no interest for me.

That's beautiful, hbg.

hbg, Love Grand Adagio by Shumsky.

Well, edgar, you just commented on that one.

Hurry back, euro. We all know that was written for Don McClean.

edgar, Didn't know that version of Tain' Nobody's Business.

How about some Fred Astair, y'all.

Good morning to all from here in Florida.

edgar, Thanks for your comment on Diana and Fred . Don't know Sophie's I Want you, but it was good.

hbg, Dear Eddie Fisher. Wish you Were here is really good. Also enjoyed Eddie and the America music by Al Hirt.

edgar, Haven't heard lady Gorme in a long time. Dear Jimmy Dean. What a sad situation, and Bummin Around touched a nerve for me.

How about some Johnny and Kris.
