PLAYLIST FOR “DRINKING AGAIN” & “SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN” (ARCHIVE SHOWS) #jazz #jazzradio #jazzsingers

24 Apr

I dusted off a couple shows from the Turntable For One archives and took the weekend off. Miss me? Well, I’ve been getting ready for an extra-special show this coming Saturday. Be here Wednesday and I’ll give you a hint.

For those of you who can’t get through an hour of me without a drink or two, this show was for you!

DRINKING AGAIN

SONG TITLE / Artist / Album or CD Title

THE DAYS OF WINE AND ROSES / Anita O’Day / “Anita O’Day”
SCOTCH AND SODA / The Kingston Trio / “The Kingston Trio Greatest Hits”
THE WHIFFENPOOF SONG / Claire Hogan / “Boozers And Losers”

LADIES WHO LUNCH / Elaine Stritch / “Company”

SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN

What’s the difference between a Dream and a Plan? Well, I’ve been having a lot of bad dreams lately, a lot of bad plans, too. Dreams aren’t real and they don’t come true…of course, most of my plans don’t come true, either. You know, maybe there’s no difference at all. Both of them end in disappointment and heartache – but not when singers like the ones I played are singing about plans they’re making!

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!”

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”

PLAYLIST FOR “HEARTFELT, HEARTLESS, & HEARTBROKEN: SONGS FOR VALENTINE’S DAY (2.13.16) #jazzradio

14 Feb

In last Wednesday’s hint, I asked what was the only thing I haven’t been called during the 5 1/2 year run of Turntable For One. Thanks for all of the suggestions (most of which were unprintable). Of course, calling me these things immediately disqualifies your answer from the quiz. The answer I was thinking of was “all heart.” And as you peruse the playlist, I think you’ll see that I’ve rectified that situation. Have you ever seen a radio program with more heart?

THEN I’LL BE TIRED OF YOU / (Mystery Vocalist) / Tim McCarver / “Tim McCarver Sings Selections From The Great American Songbook
WITH A SONG IN MY HEART / Phoebe Snow / “Live”
I LET A SONG GO OUT OF MY HEART / Tony Bennett / “Tony Makes It Happen”
ONLY TRUST YOUR HEART / Stacey Kent / “Tenderly”
LOVE WON’T LET YOU GET AWAY / Seth MacFarlane & Sara Bareilles / “Music Is Better Than Words”

HERE’S THAT RAINY DAY / Kenny Rankin / “The Kenny Rankin Album”
SO I LOVE YOU / Shirley Horn / “Close Enough For Love”
MY FOOLISH HEART / Bill Evans / “The Last Waltz”
I LOVE THE WAY YOU’RE BREAKING MY HEART / Delicatessen / “Jazz + Bossa”
YOU WON’T BE SATISFIED / Svetlana & The Delancy Five / “Night At The Speakeasy”
