Kay Starr singing Wheel of Fortune
Kay Starr - Wheel Of Fortune - 1952 - HQ Video
Much better video quality. The audio is top notch, this is an actual 78 player with a new needle and the record is in good shape. Audio is fed into a professional grade balanced audio card raw, I do not process the sound so you're hearing the record as it is :) This is actually a song we DON'T play (too old), but I thought a 78 would get things started off nicely! If you like the videos you see here then visit www.radiostorm.com and click on Oldies to tune in and hear lots of great music! "Wheel of Fortune" is a popular song written by Bennie Benjamin and George David Weiss and published in 1952. It was popularized in 1952 by Kay Starr, and was also used as the theme to a television series of the same name.

The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway won the Pulitzer Prize in May 1952
The Old Man and the Sea (Hardcover)
Publisher: Charles Scribner's Sons; First edition (1952)
The Old Man and the Sea
Amazon Price: (as of 01/03/2010)
Hemingway allows us to see through the old man's eyes....sense his emotions...feel the pain in his hands as he tugs on the fishing line that cuts through his well-worn fingers...The old man senses a camaraderie with the huge fish he has just killed...and loves it even though he has taken its life away...Hemingway understood that fight...he had been through it many times...and survived to tell his stories...and this one allows us to sense what is within the mind of the fisherman...and in Hemingway's mind as he enters his later years....The story describes both the outer landscape of the boat on the open ocean...and the fight for the huge sailfish....but also the inner landscape within his mind...truly Hemingway's mind as he faces perhaps his last good fight....The old man knew he had one good fight left in him...so did Hemingway....they both won...as we gain insight into what it means to struggle...to fight against long odds....and succeed....only to be beaten at the last moment....
