PLAYLIST FOR “ELLA FITZGERALD CHALLENGES THE WORLD!” (9.24.16)

This week Ella Fitzgerald took on all comers in a head-to-head, well, really a voice-to-voice competition. She sang standards and some surprising duets; she even challenged Sarah Vaughan in a “forgetting the lyrics” competition (Sarah won) and challenged Shirley Horn to a “slow singing” competition (Shirley won). But it was impossible to listen to this show without marveling at Ella’s musicality and her warmth and without feeling fortunate that we had her for so long.

PLAYLIST FOR “DRINKING AGAIN” & “SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN” (ARCHIVE SHOWS) #jazz #jazzradio #jazzsingers

24 Apr

I dusted off a couple shows from the Turntable For One archives and took the weekend off. Miss me? Well, I’ve been getting ready for an extra-special show this coming Saturday. Be here Wednesday and I’ll give you a hint.

For those of you who can’t get through an hour of me without a drink or two, this show was for you!

DRINKING AGAIN

SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN

What’s the difference between a Dream and a Plan? Well, I’ve been having a lot of bad dreams lately, a lot of bad plans, too. Dreams aren’t real and they don’t come true…of course, most of my plans don’t come true, either. You know, maybe there’s no difference at all. Both of them end in disappointment and heartache – but not when singers like the ones I played are singing about plans they’re making!

PLAYLIST FOR “DEMENTIA REDUX” AND “IT’S ABOUT TIME” (3.12.16) #jazz #jazzradio #jazzsingers

13 Mar

Everything was clicking along with great songs, great singers, and a very current and topical theme – Dementia – when I seemed to remember suddenly (and conveniently) that I had done this very same theme three weeks ago. I thought it was the perfect example of “form is content.” I also thought someone in the audience might call me out on this “mistake,” but I guess either the audience is just too kind and considerate to criticize me or dementia is more of a problem than I thought. So I quickly switched gears and since it was Daylight Saving Time “Spring Ahead” night, I played an hour of songs about Time.

SONG TITLE / Artist / CD Or Album Title

YESTERDAYS / Frank Sinatra / “My Kind Of Broadway”
MEMORIES OF YOU /Frank Sinatra / “Ultimate Sinatra”
WHEN I’M 64 / Connie Evingson / “Let It Be Jazz”
I REMEMBER YOU / (Mystery Vocalist) / George Michael / “Symphonica”
REMEMBER / Anita O’Day / “Tav’lin’ Light”
WHERE ARE YOU? / Bill Henderson / “Bill Henderson With The Oscar Peterson Trio”
AS LONG AS I LIVE / Delicatessen / “Goodnight Kiss”
I HAVE THE FEELING I’VE BEEN HERE BEFORE / Greta Matassa / “Two For The Road”

ITS ABOUT TIME

MOONLIGHT SAVING TIME / Blossom Dearie / “Once Upon A Summer Time”
TIME ON MY HANDS / Ahmad Jamal / “Cross Country Tour”
FIVE MINUTES MORE / Frank Sinatra / “Come Swing With Me”
I DIDN’T KNOW WHAT TIME IT WAS / Shirley Horn / “But Beautiful: The Best Of Shirley Horn”
TIME AFTER TIME / Tony Bennett / “Perfectly Frank”
IT ONLY TAKES A MOMENT / Lena Seikaly / “Written In The Stars”
IN A NEW YORK MINUTE / Ian Shaw / “A Ghost In Every Bar”
COFFEE TIME / Carmen McRae & Andre Previn / “Masters Of Swing”
I’M GETTING OLD BEFORE MY TIME / (Mystery Vocalist) / Glenn Frey / “After Hours”
3 O’CLOCK IN THE MORNING / Beegie Adair & Jaimee Paul / “Vintage Jazz”
NINE O’CLOCK / Seth MacFarlane / “Music Is Better Than Words”
WHO KNOWS WHERE THE TIME GOES / Renee Fleming / “Christmas In New York”

PLAYLIST FOR “TWO SHOWS FROM THE ARCHIVE” (2.27.16) #jazz #jazzradio #jazzsingers

27 Feb

I played two shows from the archive while I took a Saturday off to gather my thoughts. I should have brought a leaf rake. First up was “All Talk Radio!” a show from last fall after an exciting two weeks at Pundit Training Camp where I learned the valuable lessons all pundits and news commentators know, such as: it’s not what you have to say, but how long it takes you to say it. Oh, I could have talked on and on and on and on about this, but I filled up most of the hour with some great songs about talking.

SONG TITLE / Artist / CD Or Album Title

HAPPY TALK / Nancy Wilson & Cannonball Adderley/ “Nancy Wilson & Cannonball Adderley”
TALK TO ME, TALK TO ME / Freddie Cole / “Talk To Me”
TALK TO ME BABY / Cleo Laine / “Quintessential Cleo”
YOUR MIND IS ON VACATION / Mose Allison / “Lounge Live From The Mountain Stage”
GIRL TALK / Holly Cole / “Girl Talk”
TALK TO ME / Frank Sinatra / “The Complete Capitol Singles”
TOO HOT FOR WORDS / Lily Frost / “Too Hot For Words”
THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND / (Mystery Vocalist) / Bernie Sanders
SHOW ME / Karrin Allyson / “Daydream”
CAN WE TALK / Ben Sidran / “Don’t Cry For No Hipster”
EVERYBODY’S TALKIN’ AT ME / Donna Lewis / “Brand New Day”
I DON’T WANT TO HEAR IT ANYMORE / Mark Jennett / “The Way I Am”
WORDS / The Real Group / “Live In Japan”

The second show, “The Complaint Department,” first aired 3 years ago. The only complaint I want to hear after the show is from your neighbors because you were playing the music too loud.

SONG TITLE / Artist / CD or Album Title

BUT NOT FOR ME / Gladys Knight / “Before Me”
HOW COULD YOU DO A THING LIKE THAT / Frank Sinatra / “Come Swing With Me”
RAIN JUST RAIN / Rigmor Gustafsson Quintet / “In The Light Of Day”
I WISH I DIDN’T LOVE YOU SO / Steven Pasquale / “Somethin’ Like Love”
KISSING BUG / Hetty Kate / “Kissing Bug”
YOU’RE TALKING TOO LOUD / Dave Tull / “I Just Want To Get Paid”
TELEPHONE SONG / Stan Getz & Astrud Gilberto / “The Girl From Ipanema”
WHININ’ BOY BLUES / (Mystery Vocalist) / Hugh Laurie / “Let Them Talk”
WHY DON’T YOU DO RIGHT / Delicatessen / “My Baby Just Cares For Me”
CAUGHT YOU SPREADING YOUR LOVE AROUND / Uptown Vocal Jazz Quartet / “Hustlin’ For A Gig”
EVERYTHING HAPPENS TO ME / Ella Fitzgerald / “Hello Love”
SINCE I FELL FOR YOU / Mark Murphy & The Metropole Orch. / “The Dream”
PARIS MISMATCH / (Theme Music) / Cody Owen Stine

I’ll be back live next Saturday, but if you want to listen to more “canned music” (in tribute to the late Dan Hicks), try a Turntable For One podcast on PRX, the Public Radio Exchange. Click the link below:

PLAYLIST FOR “HEARTFELT, HEARTLESS, & HEARTBROKEN: SONGS FOR VALENTINE’S DAY (2.13.16) #jazzradio

14 Feb

In last Wednesday’s hint, I asked what was the only thing I haven’t been called during the 5 1/2 year run of Turntable For One. Thanks for all of the suggestions (most of which were unprintable). Of course, calling me these things immediately disqualifies your answer from the quiz. The answer I was thinking of was “all heart.” And as you peruse the playlist, I think you’ll see that I’ve rectified that situation. Have you ever seen a radio program with more heart?

LOVE WON’T LET YOU GET AWAY / Seth MacFarlane & Sara Bareilles / “Music Is Better Than Words”

PLAYLIST FOR “BREAKING NEWS” (4.11.15) #jazz #jazzradio #jazzvocalists #prx

13 Apr

Every story on the cable news channels is presented as BREAKING NEWS! The hype and hyperbole were driving me crazy…until I remembered why they’re doing it – to keep the audience interested, tuned in, and awake. Hey, that’s exactly what I want, too. So I presented every song this week as a BREAKING NEWS story, everything from breaking news about Justin Bieber (“I Won’t Grow Up”) to a home invasion (“The Three Bears”) to a new statement from Edward Snowden to America (“You’d Be So Nice To Come Home to”) to the discovery of the Fountain Of Youth (“Young At Heart”). Maybe I didn’t get all the stories right, but isn’t that the hallmark of BREAKING NEWS: get it fast, not right?

B LUE SKIES / Veronneau / “Joy Of Living”
BE CAREFUL IT’S MY HEART / Delicatessen / “My Baby Just Cares for Me”

PLAYLIST FOR “DESERT ISLAND GAME-2015” (3.7.15)

7 Mar

We’ve played The Desert Island game before when I’ve asked listeners to choose songs or singers to take with them to a desert island. Of course I laughed at their pain and deliberations and difficulty in choosing to take one thing and leave behind another equally good choice — but not this week because it was my turn to play the game. Suddenly the Sondheim lyrics, “the choice may have been mistaken, but choosing was not” didn’t sound as easy or certain.

SONG TITLE / Artist / ALbum Or CD Title

RING-A-DING-DING / Frank Sinatra / “Ring-A-Ding-Ding”
TIME TO SMILE / Tony Bennett / “The Art Of Romance”
YOU TURNED THE TABLES ON ME / Delicatessen / “Goodnight Kiss”
BODY AND SOUL / The Real Group / “Unreal”
BLAME IT ON MY YOUTH / Nat Cole / “After Midnight”
BLAME IT ON MY YOUTH / Jamie Cullum / “Twentysomething”
JUST IN TIME / (Mystery Vocalist) / Lorne Greene / “Young At Heart”
JUST IN TIME / Nina Simone / “At The Village Gate”
I KNOW THE WAY TO BROOKLYN / Lorraine Feather / “Dooji Wooji”
CRY IF YOU WANT TO / Holly Cole Trio / “Don’t Smoke In Bed”
MOON RIVER / Nancy LaMott / “Come Rain Or Come Shine”
LOST ON THE RIVER / Rhiannon Giddens / “The New Basement Tapes”
PARIS MISMATCH / (Theme Music) / Cody Owen Stine
