”Mr. Dana”
Welcome to RUMPUS ROOM Radio...   A rumpus room is a dedicated, informal space in a home—typically a basement, garage, or bonus room—designed specifically for, music, games, parties, and, as the name suggests, making a "rumpus" (noise and ruckus). Popularized in the 1950s through the 1970s, it serves as a fun, low-pressure alternative to formal living rooms where kids can play and adults can relax... Retired in the heart of Mercer County, Pennsylvania, former radio personality/host, Mr. Dana, plays music for hip-seniors in The Rumpus Room. To Be Continued...

"Could It Be Magic" is a landmark track in Donna Summer's career, serving as the lead single from her third studio album, A Love Trilogy (1976). The song has deep classical roots. It was composed by Barry Manilow and Adrienne Anderson, heavily basing the chord progressions and melody on Frédéric Chopin's Prelude in C Minor, Opus 28, Number 20. Manilow released his own slower, pop-ballad version in 1975, taking it to No. 6 on the US charts.
