All systems go for today's 1:00 PM 'encore' of the RadioACTIVE Fusion!
I never get tired of reading this story about 'Ol' Blue Eyes.'
Barbara Sinatra: "We were at a dinner party one night with Bennett Cerf and Betty Bacall when Frank wandered into a guest room to collect a pack of ci******es from his overcoat. There he found the producer Arthur Hornblow finishing up a telephone call to a woman. 'I hope she's pretty,’ Frank said softly. Arthur replied that she was it was his mother, Susie, who was in poor health in Florida but still excited about the latest Yankee scores.
'What I wouldn't give for one more telephone call with my mom,' Frank told him wistfully.
At his suggestion, they called Arthur's mother back and put Frank on the line. 'Is this really Frank Sinatra?' she asked. 'You sound too much like him not to be. I love your voice.'
'Well, I love your voice too, Susie,' Frank said. 'Tell you what—I'm going to call you every Saturday night at six o'clock, and we'll chew over the Yankees' performance, okay?' He kept his promise and never missed a Saturday evening call to Susie Hornblow until the day she died.
As an extra touch, he sent bouquets to her on Mother's Day and to other widowed mothers in the same hospital. Frank appended her name to his catalog of solitary women he'd regularly check in on, which encompassed a relative of Freeman Gosden's and several single mothers. Scepticism surrounded their assertion that Ol' Blue Eyes was a frequent caller, but they were aware of the truth, and that was the sole significance."

What I truly appreciate: Good grammar, right up until the end.
Baby, it's WARM outside.
This is a genuine photograph of two deformed mannequins that melted during excessive heat in 1929.
This photograph was originally published in the June 1, 1929 issue of "The Sphere," a British newspaper that ran from 1900 to the 1960s. The image was included in a "News of the Week" section where it carried the caption:
"WILTING LILIES: Two wax bathing bells in New Bridge Street register extreme depression owing to the heat-wave. Even human, as well as waxen, beauties have felt apt to wilt in the recent burst of hot weather."
A friend of mine was friends with the fellow on the left above, Paul Goresh. Paul often hung out at the Dakota to try and get pictures of John Lennon.
On that fateful night, my friend called Paul's house and his mother said 'You know where Paul is.' It was Goresh who snapped the picture of Lennon signing an autograph for his killer.
I'm telling you, some people still really love King Crimson's groundbreaking 'In The Court of the Crimson King' album -- and that includes ME.
“I came home one day from school after being chased by kids singing “Yellow Submarine”, and I didn't understand why. It just seemed surreal: why are they singing that song to me? I came home and I freaked out on my dad: 'Why didn't you tell me you were in The Beatles?' And he said, 'Oh, sorry. Probably should have told you that.'” - Dhani Harrison
So much for Steve Winwood trying to get his dogs off the furniture.

Yup, these folks look like they’re having an absolute blast!
Got it?
Okay, Fusion friends question: are there some bands or even major songs that you didn't care for back in the day that you absolutely love today?
DEEP savings, no doubt!
STILL one of my favorites!

I absolutely love this story about Sinatra.
Barbara Sinatra: "We were at a dinner party one night with Bennett Cerf and Betty Bacall when Frank wandered into a guest room to collect a pack of ci******es from his overcoat. There he found the producer Arthur Hornblow finishing up a telephone call to a woman. 'I hope she's pretty,’ Frank said softly. Arthur replied that she was; it was his mother, Susie, who was in poor health in Florida but still excited about the latest Yankee scores.
'What I wouldn't give for one more telephone call with my mom,' Frank told him wistfully.
At his suggestion, they called Arthur's mother back and put Frank on the line. 'Is this really Frank Sinatra?' she asked. 'You sound too much like him not to be. I love your voice.'
'Well, I love your voice too, Susie,' Frank said. 'Tell you what—I'm going to call you every Saturday night at six o'clock, and we'll chew over the Yankees' performance, okay?' He kept his promise and never missed a Saturday evening call to Susie Hornblow until the day she died. For good measure, he sent flowers to her on Mother's Day and to other widowed mothers in the same hospital. Frank added her name to his list of lonely women he'd call on a regular basis. They included a relative of Freeman Gosden's and several single mothers. Few believed them when they claimed that Ol' Blue Eyes was a frequent caller, but they knew the truth and that was all that mattered."
They did these AI generated age progressions of people you'd know like Elvis, Freddie Mercury, George Carlin, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, John Belushi, Kurt Cobain, John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix and others.
