Good Sunday morning, y'all.

Well, pushman, I know that you and I both like Johnny Mercer. Don't know Hawkwind's Assault and Battery nor Headache.

edgar, I certainly know Kenny Rogers Decorated Life.

hbg, Love Donald and Gene doing Singing in the rain and that marvelous German March.

Hope that I didn't miss anyone, but as you know, thumbing up each response is my way of thanking you.

Today is Edgar Allan Poe's birthday. More synchronicity, because when I did Accent on the radio, I also read his wonderful poem.

The sun is shinning here, but it's still a bit cold

@Region Philbis,
thanks, Region. It worked. If it's possible, can you add this to poe's tribute?

The death of Edgar Allan Poe on October 7, 1849, has remained mysterious: the circumstances leading up to it are uncertain and the cause of death is disputed. On October 3, Poe was found delirious on the streets of Baltimore, Maryland, "in great distress, and ... in need of immediate assistance", according to the man who found him, Joseph W. Walker. He was taken to the Washington College Hospital, where he died at 5 a.m. on Sunday, October 7. Poe was never coherent enough to explain how he came to be in this condition.

In high school, the Raven was one of the poems I memorized. These days I might be able to recite about half of it.

@edgarblythe,
Yep, edgar. I probably could do the entire thing.

That was a funny bird song, Texas. Smiled as I listened to The Trashmen's Surfin Bird.

More Byrds.

edgar, I know Gene best for The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, but I enjoyed that song by him.

Morgan, That Punk Man was funny. Didn't know it, so thanks again for the introduction.

Today is this French artist's birthday.

@edgarblythe,
Fantastic trilogy by Harry and he inspired me.

Tribute to Rudyard Kipling

@edgarblythe,
Thanks again for your comment, edgar, and personal acknowledgement. Kipling did get in a bit of trouble with Take Up the White Man's Burden.

Wow! Didn't know the Louvin Brothers, but they were great country singers.

Here's one to match.

Ah, I thought our edgar would like Barbara.

Saying goodnight with two songs. First, George Jones.

Now, another hymn.

Totally wonderful having Ontario via Germany; France, and England. Of course, St. Petersburg.

From Letty with love to the world

That Old Back Scratcher by Allan Sherman

........................................................................................
Quote:
Allan Sherman (born Allan Copelon;[1] November 30, 1924 – November 20, 1973) was an American comedy writer and television producer who became famous as a song parodist in the early 1960s. His first album, My Son, the Folk Singer (1962), became the fastest-selling record album up to that time. His biggest hit single was "Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh", a comic novelty in which a boy describes his summer camp experiences to the tune of Ponchielli's Dance of the Hours.
