I am sure many have a favorite year for Music...mine is 1967.
I noted the 50th Anniversary of the Monterey Pop Festival and June 2nd was the 50th for Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club…

I’ll pick it up where we left off last week with Track 9 of the latest Rolling Stones album, Blue And Lonesome.
Preceded naturally by the Original version.
The Stones got their start in the 60’s playing Blues covers, before they were almost forced to write new material!
And it shouldn’t surprise anyone that they can still… Continue

The newest Rolling Stones album came out just last December, Blue And Lonesome.
They went back to their Roots as a Blues Band when they started out in the 60’s.
It’s their only album to feature ALL Cover Songs.
I thought it would be interesting to compare the Original Blues Songs with the Rolling Stones… Continue

It is America's 241st Birthday, on the day the Declaration Of Independence was approved and ratified, July 4th, 1776.
Older than me, but I'm pretty damned independent too!
So don't get in the way of my Freedom Of Speech, lol!
After a couple of Songs, we'll return to Stan Freberg…

Well the 4th Of July hasn't fallen on a Tuesday since 2009.
Incidentally, if you ever wondered, July 4th, 1776 was a Thursday.
I'll start with a cut that is not easy to find by the…

Some more Red Music, and by no means am I trying to play The Greatest Red Songs Of All Time.
As a matter of fact, I refused to leave my chair, playing only Red songs I could see and reach…

This was one of those times I sat down to do a show and had nothing in mind.
I was thinking about next week's broadcast and it kind of sneaked up on me that I had to do one for this…

This weekend marks the 50th Anniversary of the Monterey Pop Festival, held June 16-18, 1967, dates oddly mirroring this coming weekend.
50 YEARS AGO? Why am I always shocked, lol?
For some perspective, this…

This is it, time to put a cork on the Doctor Visit.
We’ve seen multiple Doctors, had many Ailments, Tests, Medications and more.
It’s Time The Healing Began!
Special thanks to a friend named Michael for sending me The Druids, with a song I was not familiar with.
Thanks for coming along for all or part of…

I played Allergies last week and was attacked by them- damn weakling I am, lol!
I'll start with an Adult Section, then a case of Heebie Jeebies and Nerves.
And finally get around to the matter of Pills.
Then it's time for a Compound Fracture.
Can't grow up without a Broken Bone!
The Final Episode after this will let the Healing Begin.
Can I get…

This lighthearted look at Maladies that might cause a Doctor Visit continues.
And someday I will do the same with Death Series, if I live long enough, lol!
All of these can be treated at a Hospital, some exclusively.
In the case of Allergies, I've got song lyrics that describe one in the most awful way possible, "Something is living on my…

I should say if you do you have an actual Doctor Visit coming up, I wish you well- all my good thoughts go with you.
In the vast majority of cases, things are simply taken care of, like with me!
As promised last week, some Ailments that would make you go for a Doctor Visit.
For instance Trouble Breathing.
And how about the Common Cold, Flu,…

A lot of talk about Healthcare lately- worries about who will pay for it, how will we pay for it?
Just a brief serious thought until we get to some playful Music.
Then the realization the Doctors we have visited have for the most part been Anonymous.
It’s time to Name Names!
Finally closing with some Doctors of a more Musically Abstract…

A return Doctor Visit is called for, I am not satisfied with our treatment yet.
A few people asked me if I would include Witch Doctors.
Sure why not?
And a major Medical Discovery- Apples aren’t the only thing that can Keep Doctors Away!
But can’t keep Sexually Transmitted Diseases Away!
I recorded this first half hour on a Saturday morning, and I remember thinking,…

Continuing our Musical Doctor Visit, inspired by an angiogram I needed to get, I have to wonder- does Western Union still do Telegrams?
I’ve got Songs about The Doctor.
Also a Minor Rant on the pomposity of the Medical Field.
By the time I was done ranting I Wasn’t Feeling Too Good Myself.
So a Return Visit is called for next week.
See you in the Waiting…
