PLAYLIST FOR “IT’S SPRING!” (3.25.17)

PLAYLIST FOR “CELEBRATING MOTHERS” (5.7.16)

9 May

A program for all the mothers in the audience, and for a change I meant it in a literal sense, not as a nasty pejorative. So it was two-hours of music about being a mother, caring for their kids, worrying about their kids, and advising their kids – any of which can be taken to an uncomfortable extreme…but maybe that’s just my story.

BIG BAD WORLD / The Real Group / “Commonly Unique”
IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU / Frank D’Rone / “Falling In Love With Love”
LIFE IS JUST A BOWL OF CHERRIES / Carmen McRae / The Ultimate Carmen McRae
BE A CHILD / Marlene VerPlanck / “Marlene VerPlanck Sings Alec Wilder”
GUILTY / Sophie Milman / “Sophie Milman”
MAKE SOMEONE HAPPY / (Mystery Daughter) / Jacqui Dankworth / “It Happens Quietly”
I’M SHADOWING YOU / (Mystery Mother) Cleo Laine / “Quintessential Cleo”

BLUES IN THE NIGHT / Frank Sinatra / “Only The Lonely”
DON’T WORRY ‘BOUT A THING / Joann Funk / “Jazz In the Lobby Bar”

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

DEMENTIA REDUX

WHERE OR WHEN / Kristin Berardi / “Where Or When”
PURE IMAGINATION / Joanie Sommers / “Here, There, And Everywhere!”
WHY CAN’T I FORGET? / Maureen McGovern / “State of The Heart”

YOU’VE CHANGED / Billie Holiday / “Lady In Satin”
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”
TIME YOU OLD GYPSY MAN / Julius LaRosa / “It’s A Wrap”
PARIS MISMATCH / (THEME MUSIC) / Cody Owen Stine
