Throwback Thursday Musical Edition

The first thing that comes to mind when you hear the name Nancy Wilson (especially when discussing music) might be the rock group Heart, but long before Ann and Nancy began their musical careers, there was another Nancy Wilson. Today is her birthday (she's 77, born in 1937 in Chillicothe, OH) and this year is the 50th anniversary for her biggest charting hit (and first Grammy-award winning song). Let's go back to 1964 for a few minutes to enjoy that early performance. 



My favorite song by her is from the early 1990s, from an album of Johnny Mercer songs produced by Barry Manilow. "When October Goes"  features Johnny Mercer's lyrics and Barry Manilow's music.



Happy birthday, Nancy!
