Eric Clapton - While my guitar gently weeps (HQ)(Concert for George)
what beautiful music George wrote, and what a wonderful tribute....this one and My Sweet Lord are faves...
"Out In The Country" - P. K. and The Sound Explosion (1977)
this song, did not stay around long, but the melodie is great, it calls for conclusion, but does not quite get there fast enough, so you keep listening for the next refrain...it sticks...
The Guess Who - Clap For The Wolfman (1974) Tribute to: "Wolfman Jack"
Guess who is in front? Love the wolfman, wish we could bring him back....comon, lets have another wolfman...
Joe Cocker - Saint James Infirmary (Video)
Some of you might remember that I love Joe Cocker too...he is unusual...
St. James Infirmary - Eric Clapton, Dr. John
Spent the week, actually vacationing for the first time, in years.... I did not read, play on the computer, or do anything of value other than enjoy the gorgeous Florida weather, ocean , sand, and wind....absolutely gorgeous, thanks to my wonderful husband.
we are rockin! Eric Clapton, joins up...

Billie Holiday - The Very Thought of You
We can't forget Billy Holiday, shades of Diana Ross, is it the timing? Is it the voice? something calls Diana Ross to mind...
At Last-Etta James
How can this escape the favorites list? No way, it is one of the old time favorites and only Etta can sing it like this..perfect. I was sitting in a restaurant in Martha's Vineyard when I first heard it.
Dinah Washington - That Sunday That Summer
Maybe you never heard this, it is not on the air much, but one of the great songs of the past.
Hoagy Carmichael - Skylark
Hoagy didn't have a bad voice, but some of the versions done by others are fabulous
Heart and Soul - Hoagy Carmichael (1938)
this little repeating ditty, captured us...I played it on the piano and accordion, it was easy to memorize. It rolled out of the radio, and went round and round on the record player, for days....
Louis Prima - Night Train
The dynamite version of this song...I love to hear it and repeat it once in awhile.
another favorite,
another favorite,
All Night Long-Louis Prima And Keely Smith(1956).avi
This is one of their best,posted more than once...
Louis Prima & Keely Smith - "That Old Black Magic" (1958)
what fun ...with Louis Prima and Keely Smith, we can't let them fade out of our repertoire
Jim Lowe - Green Door (Original)
This played on the radio, in the car, in the house, it was everywhere, a part of our lives, and if you think back you can probably remember a day that you heard it and what you were doing it, it was so prevalent.
Jim Lowe - Green Door (Original)
I was one of the many who kept this song on the top of the charts, it was mesmerizing and played on the radio all day long.
Guy Mitchell | Singing the Blues | 1956
Jumping and jiving music, dust and vacuum around with the record player going...
"Don't Take Your Love From Me" Joni James
there was a special quality to her voice that mesmerized us.
"Red Sails in the Sunset" Joni James
We might have been jumping and jiving teens, who had the first cars for teenagers, but we also had romantic songs like this.
Nancy Sinatra Who Will Buy
What a wonderful song, and it seems that it has been ignored by our great male singers...I would love to hear it sung by Andrea Bocelli, for example, or played by a symphony orchestra, even looking for it in the play Oliver it is hard to find a good version. I can hear it played by violin chorus...or what do you think..?
