Library staff members Lesley Conway and Pia Butcher run a radio show each Wednesday 12:05pm-12:45pm on Eastern FM 98.1 called The Eastern Regional Library Show. Tune in next Wednesday for a great show.
On today's show
Great songs and unique singers will have a following long after their era. In the last few weeks we have heard quite a bit from Jimmy Durante, and today it's the turn of Nat King Cole. Even singing 'Making whoopee' on the soundtrack of the movie Sleepless in Seattle he was as smooth as cream. There are several CD's of Nat King Cole in our libraries, Christmas with Nat and Dean, The unforgettable Nat King Cole, and Nat. He also features on Favourites for weddings and the Sleepless in Seattle soundtrack. Two DVD's are Nat King Cole : the magic of music and the movie Cat Ballou. And not to forget the extensive collection of music scores held at Belgrave Library, where you will find The unforgettable Nat King Cole and Unforgettable. Next week we will feature Dean Martin who is unforgettabley linked to the song That's Amore' which was used so successfully on the soundtrack of the movie Moonstruck.
Next week I am going to indulge myself and the listeners with Victor Borge's humourous skit Phonetic Punctuation, and introduce you to some entertaining books written about punctuation and grammer. A book that came out 2003, Eats, shoots and leaves sparked a renewal of interest in the subject, and what is more, stirred people to write in an informative and humourous way about something which has bored generations of students.
