PLAYLIST FOR “APRIL FOOL!”(AN ARCHIVE REBROADCAST) 4.3.26

5 Apr

Well, if you were expecting a new show this week, the joke was on you. I dipped back into the archives for a classic…well, okay, an old show. Happy now? Here’s what I wrote about the show back then:

Sure, I promised my audience a special April 1st show with a new recording of Rod Stewart singing “Nessun Dorma,” a YouTube video of The Boy’s Choir of Galway Cathedral singing in Gaelic, “99 Bottles Of Beer On The Wall,” plus a bootleg from a Joni Mitchell recording session where Joni is aiming a profanity-lace rant at her assistant who gave her the wrong bottle of spring water. Okay, that stuff I couldn’t deliver. But a couple hours of songs about fools and foolishness was a foolproof formula for a great April Fools Day show.

PLAYLIST FOR ” A MUSICAL TRIBUTE TO ANACHRONISMS” 3.14.26

15 Mar

Anachronisms – things that no longer fit the times we live in. And for once I wasn’t the only thing that belonged in that category. Included were also a few songs about things I fear are becoming outdated, things like Democracy, privacy, and kindness.  I also indulged in a cautionary rant about A.I. after discovering a song called Five Cents A Dance that wasn’t the Larry Hart song, was sung by (what I believe is) an A.I. generated version of Kat Edmonson’s unique voice, on an album by someone named Miles LaRoque who put out a dozen album all in 2025!? Deep fakes can sometimes be funny, but real artist are being hurt by people ripping off their talents and this both angers and frightens me.

PLAYLIST FOR “CLICHE CLINIC” (AN ARCHIVE RE-BROADCAST) 2.28.26

1 Mar

Couldn’t do a new show this week so dusted off a show from a couple years ago. This was my swt-up back then:

What do these things have in common? 

  •      I’d rather have a root canal!
  •      It’s like putting lipstick on a pig!
  •      It’s totally gone off the tracks!

No, these are not descriptions of my show. They’re Cliches – which I wouldn’t touch with a ten-foot pole and, at the end of the day, I bend over backwards not to use them as if my life depended on it. Except Saturday night when I gave a Clinic In Cliches!

22 Feb

Couldn’t do a live show Saturday night, so I dusted off a show from a simpler time – 2017. Here’s what I wrote about it back then:

If there’s a rule about an exception to every rule, doesn’t that mean there must be a rule with no exception? Think about that as you look down the list of singers and songs helping me to break one of the tiresome rules I’ve heard my whole life – Never Say Never! Really? You try singing these songs without singing that word.
