This song lingers and calls you back, it is asking for something, you don't quite get to reach for....it leaves you longing for more.

"Since I Fell for You" Lenny Welch
I know there are great songs and great artists, but guess I am making my own Great American Songbook...can't help but love this
Fran Jeffries - Meglio Stasera - The Pink Panther 1963 - Peter Sellers, ...
this was a great little part in the movie, and she did a great job
Roy Hamilton-Cuban Love Song Epic Records
this was a major hit by the Gaylords, but it is not available on youtube. Great song, you can probably hear a sample on Amazon
Drifters - (I've Got) Sand In My Shoes (Original)
Here, the Drifters combine, Sand in My Shoes, with Under the Boardwalk

Amazon.com: Artie Shaw, King of the Clarinet: His Life and Times (9780393340105): Tom Nolan: Books It must be read, I guess, because Artie Shaw was a genius, who lives today in his music. What where his muses? What happened to the guiding light of potential, that is inside of all of us, why did he let it go out at 44 years of age? Maybe there is an answer to why some of us never reach even part of our potential.
St. James Infirmary - Eric Clapton, Dr. John
Yep, the Eric Clapton touch is unmistakable! The Blues come alive with this version
Artie Shaw and Tommy Dorsey - "The Continental" HD Quality Recording
We had Artie Shaw, Jimmy and Tommy Dorsey, and I began to think that the piano could be displaced as the greatest instrument. You probably did too, when you listened to the great music of these artists.
They Say - Helen Forrest
Finding music that is beautiful, old and still deserving ....Helen Forrest, speaks magic to us, in this arrangement
SOFTLY AS IN A MORNING SUNRISE - Artie Shaw
A start to a gorgeous Saturday morning in the south, with the great Artie Shaw

JUAN GARCIA MEDELES "SIBONEY"
this is a perfect follow up for Adios, and I wonder how it would sound in the background as Adios played in the foreground...???

Good night from the magic guitars that they found in the jungle,

Dorothy Lamour "I Remember You"
Just another great song, from the movie, The Fleet is In...undying in it's beauty, and one of my favorites I have posted before by others.
Dorothy Lamour - The Moon Of Manakoora, 1943
Released during the war, we all dreamed of the gorgeous Pacific Islands, a break from the war , and somewhere to park our dreams then and in the future, when things got tough.
Snow white with a smile and a song (instrumental)
A gorgeous instrumental version of the song. I tried to find the Tony Osborne version on You Tube, but it is not available there
With A Smile and A Song - Snow White
Sometimes I can't help but think that life is laid out for us, that maybe there is a path lit by stars through the Universe, with periods of black outs where we have to find our way back to the light. I saw this film maybe around 1939 when I was 4 years old. My wonderful mother, sang this song with me for a long time, and we smiled through life, Mom and me.
The music never left me and this song, it seemed to carry a message that I would share with my daughter who was terminally ill for most of her life. We can do it, we can get through the tough days, it is not easy, but the path is there if we look for it. Karen and I always tried to be positive, it was the most difficult life for her and for me, that one can imagine, yet we got through it.

The Root of all Evil is?
Today, when reading The New York Times, I was brought back to another time, to a gentle man, and his influence on a generation. We could not miss, with a man like this leading our children. Just compare our today world, with the world we once knew. We can't stop progress, but we can stop the wars, not just the wars over seas but the wars we are fabricating in our own country for political gain. Who ever is thinking up these fabricated wars, must be a mean spirited person, who puts winning over everything. Who said money is the root of all evil? I think it is the struggle for power that is the root of all evil, how about you?

The Benefits of Bilingualism - NYTimes.com
The Benefits of Bilingualism - NYTimes.com This is an interesting article, which I happen to agree with. Teaching children a second language from the early years, allows them to grow in this diverse world and speak with people from other countries, who may not have had the benefit of being bilingual.
