PLAYLIST FOR “FRENCH KISSES” (4.29.23)

Let’s be honest. France has seen some dark days. Some examples: Joan of Arc? Where was Gloria Allred when we needed her? And you can’t talk about dark days without Napoleon — the man not the dessert. Or Vichy – the government, not the water. And Freedom Fries – wait, no, that was our dumb mistake. And today the French are suffering through another tragic indignity – raising the national retirement age from 62 to 64. Well. I think we need to show our support and not just our incredulity for what the brave but – not over-worked -people of France going through. I presented a celebration of French singers and musicians, french songs, and songs about France. That’s right, for two hours I gave out out French Kisses this week on Turntable For One.

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 “CONTRAFACTUM – AN ARCHIVE RE-BROADCAST” (12.26.20)

27 Dec

Out with the old? That’s what I did. I played an archive show from last June as the final program for this wretched year. Let’s hope for better – and I mean the new year, certainly not my shows. Here’s what I wrote in June:

Contrafactum – it’s not just a word on Jeopardy. Contrafactum are two different songs with the same melody but different lyrics. To jazz musicians, they are two tunes with the same chordal structure. (I tossed a few of those in for good measure – excuse the pun.) Who said educational radio is dead? Probably somebody who has listened to my show.

SONG TITLE / Artist / CD Or Album Title

OH! LOOK AT ME NOW / Mark Jennett / “Everybody Says Don’t”

SHINY STOCKINGS / Lambert, Hendricks, & Bavan / “At Basin Street East”
SHINY STOCKINGS / Ella Fitzgerald & Count Basie / “Ella & Basie”
I GUESS I’LL HAVE TO CHANGE MY PLAN / Mel Torme & Jonathan Schwartz / “Mel Torme & Friends”
L’HYMNE A L’AMOUR / Sarah Lancman / “Parisienne”
IF YOU LOVE ME / Shirley Horn / “Here’s To Life”
LULLABY OF BIRDLAND / Chloe Perrier & The French Heart Jazz Band / “Petit Fleur”
LULLABY OF BIRDLAND / Kelley Johnson / “Something Good”

PLAYLIST FOR “LET’S TALK ABOUT ME” – AN ARCHIVE RE-BROADCAST – (8.8.20)

9 Aug

(I took the week off and found a show from 2018. It was like finding my lost youth and innocence…and some great music. Here are my comments from that other world ago.)

Last night’s show was all about me – no, it’s not what you’re thinking. Check out the song titles and you’ll see that the show was all about “me,” not me. Although since I chose all the songs and all the singers myself, wasn’t the show really all about me? If anyone isn’t utterly confused yet, write to me. I’m sure I can fix that.

HOLD ME HOLD ME HOLD ME / Blossom Dearie / “Blossom Dearie Sings Comden & Green”

HE NEEDS ME / Nina Simone / “Mood Indigo”
MY BABY JUST CARES FOR ME / Delicatessen / “My Baby Just Cares For Me”
THE BEST THING FOR YOU / Nat Cole / “Tell Me All About Yourself”
TREAT ME NICE / Marina & The Kats / “Wild”
THEY CAN’T TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME / (Mystery Vocalist) / Danny DeVito / “Living Out Loud”

JUST YOU, JUST ME / Hetty Kate / “Comes Love”
MEET ME AT NO SPECIAL PLACE / Mose Allison / “The Mose Chronicles: Live In London”
MEET ME AT THE FOUNTAIN / Cody Owen Stine & Marissa McGowan / (Live Performance)
BUT NOT FOR ME / Ahmad Jamal / “At The Pershing”

DO NOTHIN’ TILL YOU HEAR FROM ME / Tony Bennett / “Bennett Sings Ellington/Hot & Cool”
SHOW ME THE WAY TO GO HOME / Fran Jeffries / “This Is Fran Jeffries”

PLAYLIST FOR “SARCASM OR NOT SARCASM: A TURNTABLE FOR ONE QUIZ” (5.2.20)

3 May

In times of trouble, people turn to Turntable For One for answers. Yes, it’s inexplicable to me, too. For instance…

Dear Turntable For One – I hear there is light at the end of the tunnel. Should I insert that light into my body. TFO: No – wrong tunnel.

Dear Turntable For One – Can I mix Mountain Dew and Clorox? TFO: If you’re drinking Mountain Dew, you don’t need the Clorox.

Dear Turntable For One – How can I tell if a politician is really making a sarcastic joke and not just saying something idiotic? TFO: Sarcastic jokes and politicians don’t usually go together. But we’ve been hearing a lot about sarcastic jokes in the White House lately. Time for a refresher course on recognizing true sarcasm when you hear it.

(Warning: The quiz included some trick questions.)

PLAYLIST FOR “SOCIAL DISTANCING” (3.21.20)

22 Mar

At times like these – perilous times, uncertain times – people turn to Turntable For One for information and advice. Clearly these are people who’ve never listened to the show before. But, okay, I can totally pretend to abandon my usual format and inveterate cynicism to talk about something serious. Social Distancing. What is it? How do I do it? And what can I do while I’m doing it? I think these songs demonstrate some of the actions and attitudes people should adopt to fill the long months ahead. I also threw in Stacey Kent and Rachael & Vilray to remind people of what we won’t be able to do, perhaps for a long, long time. A little salt never really hurts a wound, does it?

BREAKFAST ON THE MORNING TRAM / Stacey Kent / “Dreamer In Concert”
COME DANCE WITH ME / Frank Sinatra / “Come Dance with Me”
SHALL WE DANCE / Lucy Dixon / “Lulu’s Back In town”
ME AND MY SHADOW / (Mystery Vocalist) / Allen Ludden / “Sings His Favorite Songs”
ALONE TOGETHER / Alyssa Allgood / “Exactly Like You”
TV BLUES / Tom Rust / “Are We There Yet?”
SCRABBLE / Lorraine Feather / “Ages”
FLIGHT OF THE FOO BIRDS / The Real Group / “Unreal”
GET OUT OF TOWN / Madeline Eastman / “Mad About Madeline”
LET’S MAKE LOVE ON THIS PLANE / Rachael & Vilray / “Rachael & Vilray”
CELTIC SWING / Van Morrison & Joey DeFrancesco / “You’re Driving Me Crazy”
I’M GONNA SIT RIGHT DOWN AND WRITE MYSELF A LETTER / Paul McCartney / “Kisses On The Bottom”
SONG ABOUT THE MOON / Alexis Cole / “Dazzling Blue”

29 Dec

I took a look back at some of my favorite themes from 2019 and some of my favorite songs from them.

PLAYLIST FOR “ALL TALK ALL THE TIME” (11.23.19)

24 Nov

We’ve been hearing a lot of talk lately – opening statements, closing statements, testimony, rebuttals, colloquies, points of order (even when there didn’t seem to be any point nor any discernible order). So in the best and, I might add, the most predictable Turntable For One tradition, I tried to exploit and exacerbate the situation with lots of songs about talking, telling, saying, and opining. And everyone had a good time…at least that’s what I’m telling myself.
