7/4/16: While we’re off in Fire Island, dragging it up, here’s something suitably patriotic.
Happy Fourth, everyone!!
And in case ole Katie isn’t your cup of patriot’s punch, here’s a remarkable young woman singing the national anthem at the Lincoln Memorial (which has some pretty remarkable acoustics).
I misheard the choir singing “An All American sh*t show” and I can’t unhear it. It was fun seeing Tennesee Ernie Ford, Bing Crosby and Andy Williams together along with Kate Smith. I love hearing our celebrities singing American patriotic songs – one fave is Marvin Gaye singing The Star Spangled Banner in 1983 at the NBA all star game and before that in 1974 at a Raiders/Cowboy football game.
