Lucky Day (116)
This time on the program, we’re looking at songs from the hi-fi era about luck, chance, fate, or whatever you call those unseen forces that control our fortunes. Sometimes, it’s concrete expression of luck…like lucky at cards or dice or gambling. Or one could experience emotional luck like that of a romantic nature. As they say, lucky at love. We’ll hear from Eydie Gormé, the Billy Taylor Trio, Ella Fitzgerald, and many more.
