~ Canteen Music Dedication ~

Online Entertainment For Our Troops!

Music Theme: Canteener Music Playlists and more music!

Notes: Please ping laurenmarlowe to all requests on the thread and via FReepmail!

Thank you to LUV W, Jack Deth, Esmeralda, and TheMom for sharing some of their favorite songs with our Troops, Veterans, and their families. We hope you enjoy the diversity of musical selections.

An observation: None of our Guest Canteen Deejays had any songs that crossed over to one another's list. True diversity!
 

 


 

Canteener Playlist: LUV W
 

What was the first song you remember hearing on the radio?
1.A song called "Sentimental Journey" by Doris Day that I would sing along with and made my Mom cry as she was taking my Dad back to the train station when he was going into the Army.


What was the first album/cassette/CD did you purchase?
2. The first album I bought was when I was a really little girl of Bozo the Clown--no music, but I loved the story.

How would you describe your musical preferences?
3. Rock and easy listening, some country--not "hard" country, some alternative--or whatever artists like Enya are listed under.

-------------------------------------------

LUV W is not only a proud supporter of our military, but also the proud mother of one of our brave heroes serving. As a matter of fact, he returned home last week. In addition to being a fantastic mother and wife, she also proudly entertains our Troops on a daily basis. She happens to make some very beautiful tables that she's been sharing with all of us. Thank you for your time, talents, and energy LUV W. We greatly appreciate it!!

4. God bless the brave men and women who are fighting for us and risking their lives around the world so that we might be and stay free. I love every one of them

What does the Canteen Music Dedication mean to you?
5. The Canteen Dedication is a chance for me to give a little entertainment to our troops who are so far away and who might get a chance to stop by the Canteen for a little R&R. It's a chance for me to do something for them because they do so much for me!

Canteener Playlist: EsmeraldaA

1.-The first song I remember (outside children programming?) is something from Bobby Darin(my older sisters loved the guy), I think it was *Splish Splash*.

2.-My first album was The Beatles *Please Please Me* It was a birthday present though.

3.-My preferences are very eclectic, From Classical to Hip Hop only skipping (ducking for rotten food here) Country music. [Drumbo is trying to change that, LOL]

---------------------------------

Many of our Troops have had the opportunity to see our newest Canteen family member. Esmeralda is a beautiful woman that thoroughly enjoys reading, chatting with her friends online and elsewhere, her beautiful Alexis, and music. She brings to the Canteen energy, fun, and enthusiasm.

Hello Mojo and all the Canteen buckaroos! I love the playlist concept this week and all the great tunes, Thanks.

This week the Drumbo playlist features artists exclusively from - and songs about the Greater Hampton Roads/Tidewater area of Virginia. There's lots of music history from these stompin' grounds and lots of great artists have called Norfolk, Portsmouth, Newport News, Hampton, Suffolk, Chesapeake, Williamsburg and Virginia Beach home. From Gene Vincent to Charlie Byrd, Bruce Hornsby to Ruth Brown, Juice Newton to Ella Fitzgerald - Virginia's musicians cover the complete musical spectrum and many will be here to entertain our FRiends and the troops with an emphisis on our own unique Beach Music genre to "Shag" the night away.

Of course Chuck Berry is from East St. Louis, not Norfolk - but, he wrote this oft covered classic that I would be remiss to miss. Enjoy!

Promised Land

Promised Land (Rehearsal)

Promised Land

I left my home in Norfolk Virginia
California on my mind,
I straddled that Greyhound
And rode on into Raleigh
And on across Caroline.

We stopped in Charolette
But bypassed Rock Hill,
We never was a minute late.
We was ninty miles out of Atlanta by sundown,
Rollin' outta Georgia state.

We had motor trouble that turned into a struggle
Halfway across Alabam',
And that hound broke down and left us all stranded
In downtown Birmingham.

Right away I brought me a through train ticket
Ridin' across Mississippi clean,
And I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham
Smoking into New Orleans.

Somebody help me get out of Louisiana
Just to help me get to Houston Town,
There are people there who care a little about me
And they won't let the poor boy down.

Sure as you're born brought me a silk suit
Put luggage in my hand,
And I woke up high over Alburquerque
On a jet to the promised land.

Working on a T-bone steak a la carte
Flying over to the golden state,
When the pilot told us in thirteen minutes
He would set us at the terminal gate.

Swing low chariot come down easy
Taxi to the terminal zone,
Cut your engines and cool your wings
And let me make it to the telephone.

Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia
Tidewater four-ten-oh-nine,
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling
And the poor boy is on the line.
