PLAYLIST FOR “HALLOWEEN PARTY 2023” 10.28.23

30 Oct

It’s that time again. Time for ghost and goblins and ghouls; time for witches, curses, and the walking dead. And that means it’s time for my annual musical tribute to Congress. Whoops – wrong calendar! I mean it’s time for my annual Halloween Party. I play my favorite Halloween songs, and when trick or treaters come to the door, I get to guess who they’re dressed up to be, and then hand out an appropriate song. The final song of the show has absolutely nothing to do with Halloween, but I think it has absolutely everything to do with everything else.

PLAYLIST FOR “ST. PATRICK’S DAY PARTY 2023” (3.18.23)

19 Mar

March 17th was National Sleep Day – the last holiday in the world I’d like my audience to celebrate. Fortunately, it was also St. Patrick’s Day. That’s more like it. So I presented a mixture of laughter and tears, a perfect combination for a St. Patrick’s Day celebration. Although, in truth, most of the tears were mine because once again I maintained my tradition of eating a celebratory bowl of Lucky Charms on the air. (Lucky Charms are now gluten-free. It didn’t help.) Still, it was a grand night of Irish and Irish-American singers and a chance to celebrate the music of Jimmy McHugh.

Something unusual and special happened this weekend. No, my show wasn’t organized and coherent. I said, unusual and special, I didn’t say anything about a miracle.

PLAYLIST FOR “MIXED MESSAGES” (5.29.21)

31 May

Webster may be the champion of spellers and Fowler the God of Grammar, but my mother was the unchallenged monarch of the mixed message, offering such gems as “Is that a new haircut? Maybe your friends won’t notice.” “That’s a funny joke. Do you think anyone will get it?” “A new job? Wonderful. I hope it’s not too much for you.” (I could go on and on and on – but I think you get the idea.) So this week I gave my audience a masterclass in Mixed Messages, passing along some of Mom’s favorite techniques and strategies with the help of some mixed message song combinations by some unequivocally great singers.

PLAYLIST FOR “VIOLENCE WEEK” – A SHOW FROM THE ARCHIVES (2.27.21)

1 Mar

I spent the week wandering through the Turntable For One archives and found this show from Nov. 2019. It certainly made me nostalgic for doing a live show. Sigh… This is how I introduced the playlist back then:

If you ask me – and I’m going to pretend that you have – nothing stirs the heart and lifts our spirits like the men and women who, through practice and persistence, have mastered the art of violence — hey, wait a minute. That’s not what I’m typing! How do I turn off auto-fill? I mean VIOLINS! All of the music this week features a violin or a string section, or a jazz or classical violinist, plus a couple singers who also play violin. All in all, it was a very satisfying auditory discussion of string theory.

SONG TITLE / Artist / CD Or Album Title

THE WORLD IS WAITING FOR THE SUNRISE / Aaron Weinstein / “3×3”
I CONCENTRATE ON YOU / Harry Connick Jr. / “True Love: A Celebration of Cole Porter”

GOOD MORNING HEARTACHE / Jamie Cullum & Laura Mvula / “Interlude”
I’VE GOT NO STRINGS / Roz Corral / “Telling Tales”
MAKE UP YOUR MIND / Andre Previn & Itzhak Perlman / “A Different Kind of Blues”
PEOPLE WILL SAY WE’RE IN LOVE / Ella Fitzgerald & Gregory Porter / “Someone To Watch over Me”
DON’T TAKE YOUR LOVE FROM ME / (Mystery Vocalist) / Rhonda Fleming / “The Very Best…”
MENILMONTANT / Avalon Jazz Band / “I Love Paris”
WHERE DO YOU START? / Shirley Horn / “Here’s To Life”
CLOSE ENOUGH FOR LOVE / Tony Bennett / “The Art Of Romance”
SPARKLE AND SHINE / Kat Edmonson / “Old Fashioned Gal”
THE MOOD I’M IN / Calabria Foti & John Pizzarelli / “Prelude To A Kiss”
SOMETIMES I’M HAPPY / Nat Cole / “After Midnight”
HOW HIGH THE MOON / Stephane Grappelli, Jean-Luc Ponty, Stuff Smith / “Jazz Violin Summit”

PLAYLIST FOR “MAKING TURNTABLE FOR ONE MORE COLORFUL” (8.15.20)

16 Aug

I get lots of requests from listeners, most of which I can’t fulfill because I sold my dueling pistols many years ago. When someone suggested that I try to make the program more colorful, immediately after my legal team informed me that I couldn’t sue for slander, I decided to give it a go. Below is my colorful solution – songs and/or singers or musicians with colorful names. (I know that Billie Holiday isn’t a color. But you know who took the solo on that cut? Urbie Green!)

SONG TITLE / Artist / CD Or Album Title

BLUE SKIES / Johanna Sillanpaa / “From this Side”
SERENADE IN BLUE / Kevin Mahogany / “Old, New Borrowed, and The Blues”
THAT OLD BLACK MAGIC / Claire Teal / “At Your Request”

I SHOULD CARE / Kelly Green / “Life Rearranged”
BEING GREEN / Mark Murphy / “Once In Every Heart”
THEY CAN’T TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME / Katerina Brown & Kenny Washington / “Mirror”

SOMETHING’S COMING / Andre Previn, Shelly Manne, Red Mitchell / “The Nearness Of You”
I’VE NEVER BEEN ANYTHING / Ronny Whyte / “Whyte Wolf”
BORN TO BE BLUE / Ella Fitzgerald / “Clap Hands, Here Comes Charlie”
WE’VE GOT A WORLD THAT SWINGS / Tom Rust & John Horler / “Lucky To Be Me”
THE GIRAFFE SONG / Audrey Silver / “Let Me Know Your Heart”
HOUSE OF GOLD / Kenny Rankin / “The Kenny Rankin album”
BLACKBIRD/BYE BYE BLACKBIRD / Sara Gazarek & Josh Nelson / “Dream in The Blue”
MEN ARE ALL ALIKE / (Mystery Vocalist) / Shirley Temple Black / “Shirley Temple Storybook Collection”
