"ENCORE! - The Shirl From Ipanema"

Hola! This week la Shirl encores a little latin thang and travels south of her borders and for some tasty latin sounds. A little Samba here...a little Mambo there...did someone say Cha-Cha? Go on...Bossa Nova your sweet bippy into blissdom Shirleyphiles. Alas, the gorgeous Carmen Miranda, pictured left is not in this week's show but there are more sounds inspired by this Brazilian bombshell than you can shake your maraccas at!

We listen to Xavier Cugat, Sergio Mendes and Brasil '66, Trini Lopez, Eydie Gorme, Ella Fitzgerald, The Sandpipers, Luis Bonfa, Wanda de Sah and The Voice of the Andes herself, Yma Sumac. Imagine the sound of Yoko Ono having her flesh stripped by a pack of piranha's during a moonlight swim and you may have an idea of the fabulous vocal acrobatics Yma Sumac was capable of!

So go raid the fruit bowl, you really didn't want that banana for breakfast anyway. Pour yourself a rum and coca cola, dress your best boy up just like gorgeous Don Ameche and gets those hips swaying to this week's show...*The Shirl From Ipanema*......*smooches* Shirley.

...till next time...take absolute care and play fair...

*smooches* Shirl.
