The magic of music....


I'm in a musical mood................

Each evening, for many, many years, I've watched this special lady deliver the daily news on my television screen.  Pam has been with the local CBS broadcast affiliate for a long time, speaking to us in her charming voice.


Four years ago, Pam found her other voice.  A late bloomer to the world of music, she was encouraged to sing.  Last weekend I was invited to an area restaurant for a delightful live cabaret performance as Pam celebrated the release of her first CD, The Full Measure of a Woman.

Wow, Pam sings, and does it beautifully!  Remember all those really great songs from years gone by?  Pam puts heart and soul into them.............I even found myself with my arm around my dearest as we relived memories brought back by these wonderful songs.

What's your favorite oldie?  Do you have a song that brings back fond memories?
More on Pam's story and her music here .  You can purchase her CD online too.

  2. That sounds like you two had a great evening. Our song is The Righteous Brother's Soul And Inspiration. We got married in the 1960's. Love the post.

  4. I would say, Nina Simone is one of my favorites. I'll have to check and see if there is anything of hers on the internet to listen to. I love finding new music. Tammy

  5. I love her sound! I really like listening to music like that, no hip hop, or whatever for me! I like a lot of the music from the 70's, some 60's, Doris Day, Dean Martin, but my favorite song is Truly, Madly, Deeply by Savage Garden.
    You can see the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQnAxOQxQIU. I think you would like it as some of the scenery I believe was filmed across the pond. It is the one I walked to when we got married.
    Glad that you and Bob had a wonderful evening sharing memories!
    Take care,
