Your Humble Host has returned with Sounds Like Radio Volume 139 and it's anniversary time on the Great Gildersleeve as Marjorie & Bronco wish to renew their wedding vows on their 1st anniversary. They'd like a nice private ceremony but, uh oh, Gildersleeve, well, he has a different idea for the occasion. Could be trouble in the home, we'll find out today, as we listen to a Gildy show from May 9, 1951. Helping to sort all this out will be this week's team of singers-Vaughn Monroe, Al Jolson, Joanie Sommers, Bing Crosby & John Conlee. And in addition we will be remembering a special little singer, the girl from Ipanema herself-Astrud Gilberto. She just died recently and coincidentally we featured her just a couple weeks ago on our show. Today we look back and listen to the magic that Astrud made whenever she sang and Your Humble Host even has a rare 1965 commercial Astrud did and we'll hear that too. It's a nice salute and we hope you'll enjoy.

John Conlee returns to The Orpheum!  Between 1978 and 2004, Conlee charted a total of 32 singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, and recorded 11 studio albums.

In addition to these, Conlee had 14 other songs reach the Top Ten.

You may not recogize the name Bud Logan but he is the name behind some of country music's biggest hits like John Conlee's "Rose Colored Glasses", T Graham Brown's "I Tell It Like I Used To Be" and many many more. Bud was also a bass player for the late Jim Reeves. What a career and what a storyteller. Hope you enjoy Bud Logan with these tales!

In January of 1979, the label re-released “Back Side of Thirty” which went on to become a No. 1 record, and the hits continued. The Conlee hit list includes songs like “Lady Lay Down,” “Friday Night Blues,” “Miss Emily’s Picture,” “Busted,” and “I Don’t Remember Loving You.”  He's been a member of the Grand Ole Opry since 1981 and was inducted into the Kentucky Music Hall Of Fame in 2006.

Born in Ottawa, Ontario and raised in Aylmer, Quebec, NELSON COLT released his EP Where I Belong last year featuring the singles Fingers Crossed, Right Where I Belong and the new one Across The River. The project was recorded in Nashville and was produced by Rob Matson. All songs on the album were written by Nelson and award-wining hitmaker Barry Brown. Nelson's influences include Merle Haggard, Ricky Skaggs, George Strait, Alabama and Alan Jackson. Another big influence was a Canadian Country Music legend: “We went to visit my uncle David for New Year’s Eve, and he played a guitar and sang some Hank Snow,” says Nelson. “I was in awe of that sound.” Nelson started by performing at the age of sixteen in his hometown, then he put a group together and did some touring in Ontario and Quebec for a few years. During that time, he entered all the talent shows he could find, and to his delight, winning first place in most of them. One such prize was the 1995 CKBY (Y101) Talent Search, where Nelson won a recording and touring package. Nelson has had the opportunity to be the opening act for several recording artists that have come to his area, namely Michelle Wright and John Conlee. With his new backup band named The Riders, his goals have come into focus, “Give the fans really good country music!” And that he does.
