PLAYLIST FOR “BEHAVIORAL THERAPY” – 5.24.25

25 May

Rude. Crude. Stubborn. More talk than listen.  Mean-Spirited. No, I wasn’t quoting from my high school report card. I’ve just been looking at the world around us. Did I have answers? Did I have solutions? Maybe. I do know this: I had a couple hours of songs about bad behavior and good behavior and how to get from the former to the latter. An evening of Behavioral Therapy.

PLAYLIST FOR “CHRISTMAS PARTY 2024” 12.21.24

23 Dec

The last live show of the year so it was time to party! I told a few bad jokes, made a few insulting remarks, the audience got mad and drank too much. I know, that sounds like every other Turntable For One. What made it a party? Fabulous and favorite Christmas songs from old stars and new. And I recited a prayer for lighting the Menorah, revisited some uncomfortable memories of less-than carefree Hebrew school youth, and played a couple new Hanukah songs. Did I see a Hanukah miracle that night? Yep. My car started after the show even though the temperature had plummeted into the low teens. Happy Holidays, one and all!!
