He was as much a part of the spirit of rock and roll as Elvis and
maybe even more so. He was at the heart of what teenagers everywhere
felt about living life on their own terms. He was only twenty-four years
old when he died fifty-three years ago on this very day in the twisted
wreckage of that car crash out on that lonely California highway. The
Record Party pays respects today,

Thank you, DJ Dewey. One of the loveliest songs the great Phil Ochs
wrote was about James Dean. Unfortunately, his recording is not on YouTube,
but this will suffice.

Everyone should visit Fairmount, Indiana, at least once. Our family kept shifting from smiles to tears.

Hey, I love October! Along with May, it's the nicest time in NYC. The Fall melancoly is of the bittersweet kind.

Here are Jo Stafford and Rosemary Clooney singing Autumn songs

Has this gentleman visited the Record Party before?

With all the name/blame calling going around recently, I thought this would be a suitable tune (kind of a long intro, but be patient!):
