Songs from All My Yesterdays (A Thursday Musicale)

Thursday, May 21, 2026, Orlando, Florida

Hi there, Dear Reader.

It is midafternoon on a hot, humid, and potentially rainy late spring afternoon in Central Florida. As I write this, it’s just past three, and the temperature outside is 88°F (31°C) under partly sunny skies. With humidity at a sticky 59% and the wind blowing from the southeast at 9 MPH (16 Km/H), it feels like 96°F (36°C). The afternoon forecast calls for scattered light rain showers and a high of 90°F (32°C).

I don’t have much to report today, so I’ll just share a few songs that were part of the soundtrack of my life when I was growing up in Miami in the 1970s and early ‘80s.
