I’m on vacation this week and so the show will be something from the archives. Your guess is as good as mine. Talk to you next week!
HINT FOR THIS SATURDAY NIGHT’S THEME (5.12.12)
9 MayDue to a sports-related injury — while jogging my memory and leaping to a conclusion, I strained my credulity — I’m going to have to sit this one out.
The good news is Will Duchon, host of Friday Evening Classics and The Night Cafe, will be sitting this one in for me.
Want a hint about Will’s musical theme for the night?
HINT:
What do people always talk about and yet never do anything about?
An evening of music about Campaign Finance Reform? Not even close! Deporting the Kardashians? Unfortunately, no.
Find out this Saturday night at 10:00 Turntable For One with guest-host, Will Duchon Live radio on WMNR, Fine Arts Radio, and wmnr.org

PLAYLIST FOR “LESSONS IN DEVELOPING A ‘CAN’T-DO’ ATTITUDE” (4.28.12)
29 AprAny radio program can tell you how to become just another successful “can-do” kind of person, but only Turntable For One dares to show you how to turn everyday pessimism, doubt, and defeat into an hour of great jazz vocals. It’s a dirty job, but I usually wear latex gloves.

25 AprHINT:
Do you believe in mind over matter? Do you believe that if there’s a will, there’s a way? Are you much admired for what everyone calls a ‘Can-Do’ attitude? If so, then the music this week on Turntable For One is definitely going to upset you.
I know I can’t wait!

PLAYLIST FOR “LET’S CELEBRATE RECORD STORE DAY!! (4.21.12)
22 AprWe kicked it old school last night – no CDs and no prepared playlist or notes. Instead I pulled a couple dozen old vinyl albums and played what I felt like at the moment. Twice the fun? Not exactly. Twice the chaos? Sure. Still, perhaps thought and impulse control haven’t been getting their due these days.
