PLAYLIST FOR “HEY – THAT SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN!” (5.20.23)

What do these 3 things have in common: building a house at the edge of a cliff overlooking the ocean, launching a nuclear attack – you pick the target, transporting Prince Harry and Meghan from a New York City event to their hotel three blocks away. No, they’re not on my bucket list. Correct answer: They all take Planning! And you know what else takes planning – this show! Stop laughing. To prove how completely, thoroughly this show is planned, I chose for a musical theme: Hey – That sounds like a plan. (Not everything went as planned…)

PLAYLIST FOR “APRIL FOOLS! 2023” (4.1.23)

1 Apr

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 “SPRING HAS SPRUNG 2023” (3.25.23)

26 Mar

What do these things have in common: a pogo stick, a diving board, a trampoline? Three things I wouldn’t be caught dead on? True but not what I was thinking. The three worst golden anniversary gifts? Also true but I couldn’t get two hours of music out of that. Answer: they all have springs! And that’s what I celebrated with two hours of Spring songs, with a nod to Spring planting with Mark Jennett, Spring Fever with Gretje Angell, and Spring cleaning with Kevin Mahogany. Proving once again that Turntable For One comes in like a lamb and goes out like a lamb chop.

PLAYLIST FOR “WHERE OR WHEN” (2.4.23)

5 Feb

When I was a kid, the questions I asked were Who, What, Where, and How. Mostly because I was just trying to figure out if Col. Mustard killed Miss Scarlet with the candlestick in the conservatory. (Who knew there was so much murder at Julliard?) Well, now I mostly just ask two questions: Where – as in Where did I leave my glasses? And When – as in When did we have that conversation? So because my show is nothing if not self-involved and self-referential, I played two hours of Where or When songs. BTW: I never found my glasses.

PLAYLIST FOR “A MUSICAL TRIBUTE TO DIRECT ADDRESS” – AN ARCHIVE RE-BROADCAST (BETTER KNOWN AS A RERUN) (1.21.23)

22 Jan

I didn’t make it to the station this week, so I played a show from when I was younger and the world was easier to understand. Okay, just when I was younger. Here’s what I said about it the first time around:

“‘What we got here is failure to communicate,’ said one of the most reprehensible yet prescient movie villains of all time. That line of dialogue has been playing frequently in my head these days. How can we communicate better? Of course, my answer to this and so many other questions is simple: better grammar. So in my continuing effort to leave no listener behind, I made a case for the vocative case, another term for the function of grammar known as direct address. All of the songs served as examples, using a name, a term of endearment, or a feeling to grab the attention of the intended object of communication. If only the rest of the world would function according to the orderly, predictable precepts in my dog-eared high school grammar book.”

SONG TITLE / Artist / CD or Album Title

HEY YOU WITH THE CRAZY EYES / Loston Harris / “Swingfully Yours”
MATCHMAKER, MATCHMAKER / Carmen Lundy / “Girl Talk”
MAM’SELLE / Frank Sinatra / “Nice ‘N Easy”

WAITER ASK THE MAN TO PLAY THE BLUES / Freddy Cole / “Waiter Ask The Man To Play The Blues”
WAITER, OH WAITER / Stacey Kent / “The Changing Lights”
DINNER FOR ONE, PLEASE, JAMES / Joe Williams / “Ballad & Blues Master”
FEET DO YOUR STUFF / Sarah Moule / “It’s A Nice Thought”
RUBY, MY DEAR / Thelonious Monk / “At Palo Alto”
BALLERINA / Gregory Porter / “Nat King Cole And Me”
GEORGIA ROSE / Queen Latifah / “Trav’lin’ Light”
HURRY IT’S LOVELY UP HERE / Mark Jennett / “Everybody Says Don’t”
BEAUTIFUL LOVE / Sinne Eeg / “Eeg/Fonnesbaek”
YOU, YOU’RE DRIVING ME CRAZY / Van Morrison & Joey DeFrancesco / “You’re Driving me Crazy”

PLAYLIST FOR “QUIZ: WHO WROTE THAT – THE GENDER REVEAL EDITION”” (1.14.23)

16 Jan

Who wrote these songs? A man or a woman? Don’t think of this as a test. Think of it as a provocative little quiz. Sure, there are right and wrong answers. Plus, how you answer does reflect how much you know about music; and what unconscious biases you have; and whether you’re a decent human being or a total disgrace. But it wasn’t a test. It also was some of my favorite music.

It could have been worse. Election Day Tuesday was supposed to be worse. So bad I thought I might have to head for a desert island.

Still, it never hurts to be prepared. So this week I planned what music I’ll bring with me if I have to take a mental health day for the next 20 years.
