Ali vs Frasier, Batman vs Superman, Godzilla vs Mothra, fire vs ice, truth vs fiction – the world has witnessed some classic battles. But no one has ever seen the kind of all-out challenge Ella Fitzgerald will face on my show this week.

Over the last 7 years, I’ve thought of musical themes of songs for about nearly everything you can think of. Hope you caught my shows on songs about Boy Meets Tinder, Practical First Aid, and The Only Thing The NSA Isn’t Watching Is Paint Drying. This week was more about the music than my paranoia. I’m content.

I’ve played songs about love, songs about hate, songs about food, songs about mothers, songs about fathers – what’s left? Or, for that matter, what’s right? I can think of one thing I haven’t done: songs about ________. Can you fill in the blank? Tune in Saturday night to find out.

Is that person who keeps saying the same thing over and over and over reciting his or her mantra or off his or her Lithium? Hard to tell. Whatever gets you through…hey, maybe that should be the universal mantra. Below are a sampling of others. You can’t go wrong with any of these songs or singers.

Ah, election season – the debates, the discussions, the arguments, the choices, the recriminations, and the remorse – and that’s just at your family Thanksgiving dinner. How do we get through all this? How do we cope, how do we stay safe and sane? Put down that bottle. I have a better idea. And if you’re truly mindful, you probably can guess what I mean.

Turntable For One is back this Saturday night for its seventh season. What will I do for a “lucky number seven” musical theme? Seven dwarfs? Seven wonders of the world? Seven continents? The Magnificent Seven? Think of a number between 1 and 7 and make the audience guess? No, I’ve got a better idea!

Turntable For One has been off for the summer, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been trying out new songs and new material on audiences here in our back yard. Their most requested songs: Deer Prudence, Deerly Beloved, and Ruby My Deer. Typical. Beginning Saturday, September 3rd at 9:00 PM, Turntable for One will be back on WMNR Fine Arts Radio and wmnr.org. Watch this space for a hint about the first musical theme of Season 7! And I’ll talk to you Saturday night, September 3rd.

I’m posting this a week late. Computer troubles. Saturday (July 2nd) was my final show of the season so, following tradition, I handed out summer listening assignments, music you should be listening to while Turntable For One is on its summer vacation. I’ll be off the air for 8 weeks, but from time to time I’ll let you know some of the music I’m listening to this summer. Leave a comment and let me know what’s keeping your ears busy, besides the general din of iniquity. I’ll be back on the air September 10th.
