Happy New Year 2024...with Harry Harrison!


























Harry Harrison was a radio personality, primarily in New York City, for over 50 years. Harrison is the only disc jockey to be a WMCA "Good Guy", a WABC "All-American", and a personality on WCBS-FM's oldies format. Harrison retired in June 2005. He was known as New York's "Morning Mayor" after having hosted morning drive time through most of his career.  In 1965, he recorded the holiday narration "May You Always", which was released as a single on Amy Records and made the Billboard Christmas singles chart that year. The recording has been a staple and airs every New Year's Eve on the radio station.
Harry Harrison died peacefully on January 28, 2020, at his home in Westwood, New Jersey, at the age of 89. 
 

This is a copy of the WCBS-FM letter that Harry sends out to those who request the lyrics. But, to truly appreciate it, you have to hear Harry read it.

The 2021 Academy Awards Show!

I've always enjoyed watching the annual Academy Awards since the early 60s, but they have become increasingly lacking in excitement for me.  The fact that I have not seen any of the films nominated and  that I do not know who the nominees for the acting awards are, make the show less and less attractive each year.  Anyway, it's a tradition I'm willing  to keep as long as possible.
