Yes John. Fed's post was a "commercial"--it was funny however, but made me laugh......I remember J Gleason as a kid. I always thought Archie Bunker "drew" from that character a bit. Yes Mystery song #8 is on the thread. (I don't have a clue).

Okay, here's a hint. The song was used in a 1980's movie. Two titles.

I`ll post one more to give John a little more of a break Song # 11 name the song I`ll post it. Classic song from 1969 written by Canadian Ian Tyson (Ian & Sylvia) and performed by Judy Collins. This girl was sister to a person I knew In Denver, got to hang with Her once. "and I would never "Leave Her crying" Every morning in Boulder Me and friends would meet at Magnolia Thunderpussy`s for coffee, and a good look around.

Francisco Alonso is my guess, I don`t know it stumped me.."Put your little foot" lol the only composer I heard about with no birth date was Ludwig van Beethoven

Really stumped at first. Was going to do a lifeline to granddaughter’s piano teacher because this must get played at local recitals a lot. Great clues again, John!

Okay, I'll give someone else a chance to post a mystery tune. Mystery Tune #14 is "Minuet in G" by Beethoven. One of his popular short pieces.
Best, John

this should be pretty easy. I`ll post the song two different ways it was produced, then and now.
if you catch a "Cold, this always comes along with it....
Miners called it... "Gold -----"
I don`t think you guys will need the clip.
