  1. I was not familiar with too many of these. I knew his newer stuff, but I was never too fond of his voice, I have no idea why. But I did enjoy that Dan Rather quote. I hadn't heard that.

    Now Im going to bed early. Why I thought it was a good idea to eat a chocolate lava cake at 12:30 at night is beyond me????? But like Sylvia Fine I did lick both sides the fork real good.

  6. I see all these classic Smokey songs and then remember all the great singers who covered the songs later. The 60's were the freedom years for me.
