Good morning everyone! It’s Wednesday November 27th and we’re off to the races. DJ play some music. But, I thought on this day before Thanksgiving day I’d give some air to a guy that just made a name for himself. No record label.
Ladies and Gentlemen. Oliver Anthony
His breakthrough came with “Rich Men North of Richmond,” which made history by debuting at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, making him the first artist to achieve this without any prior charting history. Anthony’s authentic approach to music-making, recording his early songs on a mobile phone while living off-grid in a $750 camper with his family, resonated deeply with audiences. His latest musical endeavor has garnered significant attention – a cover of John Denver’s “Take Me Home, Country Roads,” recorded at the Bluestone River in Mercer County, West Virginia. The cover, released in November 2024, has been praised for bringing a fresh perspective to the beloved classic, with fans and critics alike celebrating his soulful interpretation.
Thanksgiving
Below is an interesting take on handling the political discussions at the dinner table. It just might work 🤣
Golf
We had an excellent time playing golf yesterday. It only took me about nine holes to find my swing. Still, it has to be a win whenever you get out for air, sun, , exercise, fantastic views, and good friends. Am I right?
My friend Keith is on a tear and playing some of his best golf ever. He shot a 72 last week and a 74 at La Jolla Country Club. He’s just in the zone.
Lastly…..
As I’ve become a fan of good covers. Halsey did one for ‘the 80s babies’ – Running Up That Hill.
I’ll try to post tomorrow, but if I don’t, make sure you take the time to enjoy family and friends. Have an excellent Thanksgiving.
