PLAYLIST FOR “WHAT DO YOU WANT?” (9.15.12)

16 Sep

Check your ego and superego at the door; this week’s show was all about the id — you mean, Kim Kardashian’s new book, The 7 Habits of Highly Over-rated People?  No, it’s about a dozen musical answers to the eternal question, “What do you want?” (This playlist has been updated because I made changes during the show. )

Next Wednesday, a new clue for next week’s show. 

Talk to you next week.

PLAYLIST FOR “OUT-SOURCING” (6.9.12)

10 Jun

These are perilous times, especially for anyone who hates cliches. However, to show my true patriotic stripes, tonight on Turntable For One in a demonstration of economic  austerity, I out-sourced all of the vocalists — to Canada. Not one of these vocalists was born in the U.S. of A., although many of them do have certain facial resemblances to actual Americans. Stay vigilant.

PLAYLIST FOR “LESSONS IN DEVELOPING A ‘CAN’T-DO’ ATTITUDE” (4.28.12)

29 Apr

Any radio program can tell you how to become just another successful “can-do” kind of person, but only Turntable For One dares to show you how to turn everyday pessimism, doubt, and defeat into an hour of great jazz vocals. It’s a dirty job, but I usually wear latex gloves.
