Musical Monday


Last Friday we celebrated the birthday of soul singer Sam Cooke, whose beautiful voice and smooth, effortless delivery gave us a long playlist of beloved songs, including this one - "Wonderful World" - which has always been one of my favorites.



Sam Cooke was killed in 1964, depriving us of one of the finest singers of his - or any other - time. Nowadays, we're stuck with the Justin Biebers and other lesser talents, which is too bad for new generations of music lovers.

Have a good day. More thoughts tomorrow.

    Good song, but I guess it's what you are used to listening to. JB is loved among the young folks.
