PLAYLIST FOR “ST. PATRICK’S DAY PARTY” – AN ARCHIVE REBROADCAST (3.12.22)

I couldn’t make it to the station this week, but did that mean no St. Patrick’s Day party this year? Nope. I dug this show from 2019 out of the archives. This is what I wrote about the show back then:

It’s been a Turntable For One St. Patrick’s Day tradition for me to play some jazz singers from Ireland, a few Irish-American (or at least half-Irish-American) singers and musicians, and – always a highlight – for me to eat some traditional Irish food on the air – which, of course, means a bowl of Lucky Charms. And, as if hearing me struggle and choke wasn’t incentive enough, I made this year’s party a celebration of the songs of Jimmy McHugh, the wonderful Irish-American composer.

PLAYLIST FOR “REDUX” (3.20.21)

21 Mar

I divided the show into two parts this week, one part the traditional Turntable For One party for St. Patrick’s Day, replete with Irish singers and musicians, Irish-American singers and musicians, and the most important Turntable for One tradition of all: me eating a bowl of Lucky Charms on the air. To celebrate the fact that this was my first live show from the station in a long, long while, in the second part of the show I shared some of the music that helped get me through the last 12 months of sheltering in place. So nice to be back, like Spring flowers, green grass, and seasonal allergies.

PLAYLIST FOR “TEACHABLE MOMENTS” (2.22.20)

23 Feb

I thought when you experience a Teachable Moment, you’re supposed to reflect and even have a change of heart. The only reflection I’m seeing these days is in my mirror – and I’m not too happy with those results either. So I played a couple hours of songs about people confronting difficult situations in hopes that the music and messages might be helpful and instructive. Probably it instructed people to turn off their radios. Not exactly what I had planned.

PLAYLIST FOR “THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS” (2.1.20)

3 Feb

I’ve tried for months to do this theme, but something horrible would happen – in a mall, or a night club, or, dear God, another school. So, of course, out of decency I deferred. Besides, after a tragedy, that time is always reserved for politicians to offer their “thoughts and prayers” in lieu of doing anything. I thought I was safe this week, maybe because it was the night before the Super Bowl, or the night before Groundhog Day, or maybe because America really needs a hug this week, I offered some songs about thoughts and prayers.

SONG TITLE / Artist / CD Or Album Title

SERMONETTE. /. Lambert, Hendricks, & Ross / “The Hottest New Group In Jazz”

SACK FULL OF DREAMS /. Virginia Schenk / “Battle Cry”
PENSATIVA / Charles Lloyd / “Autumn In New York”
IF HE CHANGED MY NAME / Nina Simone / “Nina At The Village Gate”
WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD / Tony Bennett & k.d. lang / “A Wonderful World”
THIS BITTER EARTH / Imelda May, Jeff Goldblum & The Mildred Snitzer Orch. / “The Capitol Sessions”
I THOUGHT OF YOU LAST NIGHT / Morgana King / “Wild Is Love”
LOSING MY MIND / Donna Murphy / “Wall To Wall Sondheim”
I THOUGHT ABOUT YOU / (Mystery Vocalist) / Joey DeFrancesco / “Singin’ & Swingin’”
PLEASE SEND ME SOMEONE TO LOVE / Nancy Wilson / “Save Your Love For Me”
PRAYER / Miles Davis / “Porgy & Bess”

I LIKE THE SUNRISE / Frank Sinatra & Duke Ellington / “Francis A. & Edward K.”
