Blooming Hits Saturday Night

During this Saturday nights' edition of Those Were The Days, I will be digging through the fifties through the eighties music archives.  As you gather during Easter weekend,  I hope you will tune in our family fun show courtesy of WRCO FM 100.9 and wrco.com.  This week the hits will be in full bloom and our theme will include flower songs.  Join me for a green and growing Saturday night in April.   Favorite flower hits include:  Flowers On The Wall-Statler Brothers,  Build Me Up Buttercup-Foundations,  Sugar Magnolia-Grateful Dead,  Crimson and Clover-Tommy James,  Dandelion-Rolling Stones, and the Rain,The Park, & Other Things (I Love the flower girl)-Cowsills.  

I hope to hear from you between six and midnight on Saturday night.  We have been hearing from more long distance requesters.  A couple of truck driving friends checked in from several states away to request tunes last weekend.  I have many memories of Easter weekend when I was a 'wee-Nee'.  My sister and I always made an Easter egg tree.  We would poke holes in the shell and blow the yoke out.  After dropping the shells in coloring, we would hang the eggs on a branch that we found in the woods.  I would hide my Easter candy and sometimes forget where it was.  It was always a surprise treat later (if it wasn't stale).  One year we each got a baby bunny.  By the next Easter,  those furry friends had multiplied and we had several babies for the holiday. 

Please give me a call and request a song,  play trivia, or if you just want to chat Saturday night.  We will watch for the Easter bunny together during Those Were The Days.

1977 was a great year for albums. ELO-Out Of The Blue and Meatloaf were among my faves.
