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 Included were also a few songs about things I fear are becoming outdated, things like Democracy, privacy, and kindness.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!

PLAYLIST FOR “LOADS OF LOVE FOR VALENTINE’S DAY!” 2.14.26

15 Feb

Loads of love songs for Valentine’s Day. In the past I’ve always dropped in a ton of ironic songs about love that are hardly love songs. One year, to be ironic, I even played Love For Sale. This year, this month, this week, I didn’t think the world needed my irony – or maybe I didn’t need it right now. So, for the most part, I played a couple hours of un-ironic, unapologetic love songs.

PLAYLIST FOR “ESCAPE PLANS” (AN ARCHIVAL RE-BROADCAST) 1.24.26

26 Jan

I was metaphorically under the weather this week, 24 hours before most of the country was literally under the weather. So I dipped into the archives for a show from a few months back. It may be more relevant to my mood now than it was when it first aired. This is what I wrote about it back then:

I can think of a thousand reasons why Escape Plans are on my mind. Instead, I thought of a couple dozen great songs and let them be my escape for a couple hours. (I also paid tribute to Jack DeJohnette whose work means so much to me.)
