edgar, I loved that tribute to Harry Belafonte, and what a surprise to find out that "gentleman Jim" did Bimbo. Funny.

Today is this great actor's birthday. Remember David Niven?

I liked David Niven. It depended on the movie if I watched him act.

Don Rondo

I love Stars Fell on Alabama, edgar. Didn't know Don Rondo, however.

I never saw the movie Around the World in Eighty Days, but I love the theme.

Here it is with the lyrics.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVqDJP8PFYA



Around the world I've searched for you
I traveled on when hope was gone to keep a rendezvous
I knew somewhere, sometime, somehow
You'd look at me and I would see the smile you're smiling now

It might have been in County Down
Or in New York, in gay Paree, or even London town
No more will I go all around the world
For I have found my world in you

It might have been in County Down
Or in New York, in gay Paree, or even London town
No more will I go all around the world
For I have found my world in you

Yeah. I like several versions of the theme. The movie itself is a conglomeration of self indulgent scenes that ultimately bore the sox right off of me.

Rick Nelson

Don't know It's Late by Ricky, edgar.

Here's the one that I remember by him.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0vFdCdNQP4

In his later years he billed himself as Rick Nelson and the Stone Canyon Band. My favorite by him is Garden Party.

Why this is called Quiet Village, I could never figure out. You about need ear plugs.

That music was quite soothing to me, edgar. I started to play in a quiet and county village stood a maple on the hill, but what a surprise to find out that Hank did this.

I always thought Hank Locklin was underrated. Here he is again.

It's a Little More Like Heaven by Hank was great.

Thinking about our Irish friends this evening whether they be Irish American or like euroGeorge from Dublin.

First, inspired by Hank:

Now, another Irish song:

From Letty with love to the world

I know those recordings well, letty.

another Irish song

Good morning from here in our radio station.

Loved Danny Boy by Harry, edgar. That stairway reminded me of There's a lady who knows all that glitters is gold and she buying a stariway to heaven."

How about a cheerful one by Peggy Lee.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciNCqLZGpl8

Now, a classical piece that's not so cheerful.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECRFwxki2bg

I love most anything by Peggy Lee. Tchaikovsky - good version.

Andy Russell

love that one by Andy Russell, edgar. As I told the bump boy, music is healing.

Here's a funny one by Nat:

I remember that song, letty.

Don't know what to say the monkey won't do
