Ac-Cent-Chu-Ate the Positive
May 5, 2020 #1968
In these uncertain days it's a good idea to heed Johnny Mercer's musical advice to accentuate the positive. This optimistic point of view has been captured by songsmiths from as far back as the 1920s. We deviate from our emphasis on the big bands by offering selections from Johnny Ray, the Kingston Trio and even Fats Domino!
