Babe Soundtrack Mice sing Blue Moon Acapella
Here is a movie for the kids, that came to me this morning, because of my face off with the best Blue Moon male singers...
Ella Fitzgerald "Shiny Stockings"
This is the time for Ella to get us up and going.....wow! I love this and Kenny always loved it...when he was 4 he would ride with me in the car to Florida, and Ella , sang this to him, he loved it...we played jazz all the way south and back...just Kenny and me, with the greatest sounds. Maybe that is where he learned to love music of all genres, like I do
look at this price! If you have a cassette radio, this is great and ....you can still buy the cassette radios,
This is the one I take with me, I love it So, why do I bother with a cassette, because I can load the cassette with my old tapes, I even bought a player that plays cassettes, single 78's and old 45's too....just for the fun of being a teenager again.
Sometimes I forget how old I am, and head out with all the fire, smoke and spit of the young cowboys and cowgirls, only to be struck down by the attacking lion of old age.....in the first glimpse of the sun as I step out of the car and try to climb the stairs....oh darn! I do better in the land of dreams, where i can run, and even fly through the air.....
Now, to find a new young body, to place this old brain in, and wow.....

Nat King Cole - Night Lights
what started the whole thing on listening to the different versions of Blue Moon, is this song. As I lay in bed the other morning, the tune came out of somewhere and started playing in my head. I knew it was my day for Nat King Cole. I loved this song, which carried me to Youtube and then Blue Moon....How great it is to be able to listen to different versions of the songs and then know what you need in your collection. I have most of these old songs on 78's and 45's

Rod Stewart Blue Moon
Listen to my favorite versions of this song, they are all great, and a special thank you to Rod Stewart for his revival of the classic songs of the past. We are waiting for yet, another, special recording of the old songs..... please Rod!
Blue Moon - Chris Isaak
Yet, another 'swooner', with a gentle yodel sound. Each artist has his own inner ear, and sound, I like each one I am posting in this comparison. The albums are available, some reasonable
BLUE MOON - Nat King Cole
Just love this version ! A mix of sounds, and his heavenly voice, some doo wop sound in the back ground....
Tony Bennett - Blue moon Lyrics
Lets listen to the great male singers of this wonderful song.....do you think they corner the market? Imagine most were recording 50 years ago and the price of their records is pretty fair
