Happy new year to everyone on the forum seeking to find the truth in the Kennedy assassination.

What better way to bring in the new year than with the lovely Beverly Oliver and her rendition of "God Bless The USA" 😁

As I'll be on the road part of tomorrow and Sunday, not positive about internet connection until Sunday evening (it's an Oklahoma thing), Happy New Year all.

From California, 1983.

O.K., folks, here's a traditional English folk song for New Year's that was, allegedly, sung by George Washington, himself, back in the 18th century.

The song, from Derbyshire, is based on Anglo-Saxon pagan, mid-winter celebrations, and was sung in "hoodening" processions for beer money.

This is my own arrangement, using my Martin acoustic guitar in a Celtic DADGAD tuning.

Wikipedia has a good article about the Derby Ram and related British folk traditions.

Great stuff @W. Niederhut , you're very good on guitar. Thank you for sharing.

Happy New Year, everyone!

 

Thanks, Denny.  You're a gentleman and a scholar.

Happy New Year!

My wife and I are both just happy to be alive this New Year's Eve.

We both caught COVID (Omicron) one year ago this week.

My main wish for 2023 is peace in Ukraine.

Happy New Year! 

Happy New Year to everyone, and well done, William, on another excellent performance.

Rod Stewart’s rendition of Auld Lang Syne is terrific, but Eddi Reader’s is sublime.

Well, this is terrific, John!

Thanks for posting.

(I recognized a lot of scenery from a trek my wife and I made through the Scottish Highlands many years ago.)

I also enjoyed Rod Stewart's performance of Auld Lang Syne (above.)

There's another Stewart who sings Robert Burns songs well-- Andy M. Stewart.

It doesn't include Auld Lang Syne, but I have enjoyed listening to this Andy M. Stewart CD for years-- especially on Robbie Burns Day (January 25th.)

Nice one, William. There was another more famous Andy Stewart (without the M) who very successfully sang and performed as the quintessential kilt-clad Scotsman. They were both very good in their own distinctive ways.

Yes, John, I've heard the old Scotsman, Andy Stewart, sing a song which is, possibly, about porn star Stormy Daniels and Donald Trump, the laddie whose mother came from the Isle of Lewis, west of Skye.   (He even does a hilarious Elvis impersonation in this version.)

It's called, "Donald, Where's Your Trousers?"  🤪

Happy New Year to you all.

I have to note this. JFK Revisited has been out since July of 2021.  It had an eleven month window in sales to countries for exhibition before going to DVD.  The norm is six months. And that is for a feature film, not a documentary.

Roe said it would go straight to You Tube.

Yet, even though it came out on DVD in July, its still number five on the Amazon chart for documentaries. In other words it has been in the Top Ten for almost half a year.

Roe really knows the movie business doesn't he?
