HINT:

If you thought about it – even for a minute – before you did it, you’d have known immediately, instinctively it wasn’t going to end well. Far from it. The cards were stacked against you. But did that stop you? No. 

Can you think of any songs like that? I can.

15 Oct

HINT:

When we admire singers and musicians, we go to their concerts, we buy their music. When singers and musicians admire other singers and musicians, what do they do? (And, if you think this has something to do with Tonia Harding, you’re really on the wrong track.)

HINT:

This week I’m going to play every song at least twice, but I’m not going to play any song more than once. Am I being clever or confusing? Both, I hope.

HINT:

This week’s show will be selected from the voluminous and vast Turntable For One archives, which is another way of saying, it will be a repeat show from the past. Which program will it be and which musical theme? Well, if you missed it the first time, you can be excused (with a signed note from your doctor). However, if you miss it this time, all I can say is you will really be asking for trouble!

HINT: 

There is so much sadness in the world today. It seems anywhere you look, everywhere you turn there’s one sad story after another. Well, you know what they say: you’re either part of the problem or part of the solution. Guess which one I’m going to be this Saturday night!

Yikes! This is embarrassing. I forgot to put up a hint for this week’s show on Wednesday. I wonder if I can think of anything else that might be embarrassing…

HINT:  

What’s an “Oldie But Goodie?” To some it’s a classic song by Chuck Berry or  something by Benny or Bartok or Brahms or Beethoven or Bach. But I have a totally different answer. Tune in this Saturday night to hear what it is, along with an hour of great jazz vocals!”
