ROCKOLLECTIONS: HAIRSTYLIST APPRECIATION PT.4 END

This is the Final Chapter of Hair and Hairstylist Appreciation

My last chance to cover everything Hair related I could think of.

Cutting hair, baldness, rubbing stuff into hair, washing stuff out of hair and even turning gray!

Plus changing your mind about Cutting Your Hair!

I hope you enjoyed this short quirky Series.

And this Closing Act!

ROCKOLLECTIONS: HAIRSTYLIST APPRECIATION PT.3

I will continue with Hair and Hairstylist Appreciation

Last week I said Letting Your Hair Down had a little sexual innuendo to it.

Well I have a couple of songs that make it flat out clear!

Long Hair in the 60's and 70's can be traced back to the Beatles, those Moptops, lol!

And that led to Hippies and inevitably to lifestyle disagreements, where the length of your hair could prevent you from getting a job!

To end this Episode, a song about a Biblical Character and one… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: HAIRSTYLIST APPRECIATION PT.2

Moving on with Hairstylist Appreciation, which includes Barbers and Hairdressers.

There is a difference between a Hairstylist and a Hairdresser, if I have time I will get into it.

This time I sat down and had a taste for Folk And Folk Rock.

Or should I say FOLLICLE Folk And Folk Rock, lol!

I'll have pretty songs from Folk Icons, people who are Prisoners Of Their Hairdos, fun with not just top of the head but full on Body Hair for Shaving, and a sad song about an Older Woman… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: HAIRSTYLIST APPRECIATION PT.1

Here is a show I have long thought of...about Hair!

Most of us males hit a Peak Head of Hair Period, and start to lose it from there, GASP!

I'll bet over 90 percent of you can guess my starting song.

And it is the best Starting Point!

I will have a Musical Look at the expression Let Your Hair Down, plus the usual additional explorations.

Oh, and I go to a Barber not a Hairstylist, but they are included too, lol!

Join me, we'll have some fun with… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: SUMMER ACTIVITIES PT.6 FINAL

Cruising in your car, listening to Rock & Roll counts.

But this time it’s Summer Activities In The City.

Local things to do, no car necessary- walking or public transportation will suffice.

I’ll have, and play, something by the Doors that you may not have known about.

Ending the Summer Activities with one of the strangest sets I've ever done!

Frankly I had more to play, but I have to stop sometime.

And this is a good way to end!

Have fun!

ROCKOLLECTIONS: SUMMER ACTIVITIES PT.5

Here are some additional Summer Activities.

I did Swimming last time, and I’ll look at some other things that can be done involving Water.

Plus Songs For The Great Outdoors and The Great Indoors!

Honestly, it was so hot recording this Episode, I removed my shirt.

Luckily no video, lol!

Purge that thought and enjoy!

ROCKOLLECTIONS: SUMMER ACTIVITIES PT.4

Part of Vacations and Summer Activities is staying in a Hotel Room.

Be very cool if someone were listening to this in a Hotel!

I grew up in Manhattan, and there was no Beach, we had to go to Brooklyn or Queens or some other borough.

Or we went up on Tar Beach.

I've always wondered if that expression is used in other cities or is purely a New York thing!

Then there is the matter of choosing a Bathing Suit- a simple matter for me and men.

It's got an elastic band or… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: SUMMER ACTIVITIES PT.3

Good grief, when I recorded this, I didn't realize it was 92 degrees outside, so I was closer to that opening Song than I realized!

These Summer Activities will involve Shipping Out And Getting To Shore.

Then of course, Swimming- Ocean or Pool.

Bring a Towel, and give a listen!

Some good Music in here!

ROCKOLLECTIONS: SUMMER ACTIVITIES PT.2

Next stop in this Summer Activities exploration, a trip outdoors…to The Beach!

Doesn’t mean we have to do anything.

Sure you can throw beachballs, frisbees, sand, small animals, etc. or be like me and just lay there.

Or also like me, just stand there for a few minutes and leave!

Beach Parties, Names Of Beaches, Sons Of Beaches, Girl On Beach, Man On Beach, Beach Boy soundalikes, (which one doesn’t belong lol?), I got it in here.

Give a listen, you’ll have a good… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: SUMMER ACTIVITIES PT.1

Making a few stops along the way in this ambitious and overrated Summer Series, this is the first Chapter of Summer Activities.

Starting with what we all look forward to- VACATION!

With the hot, sticky, sweaty, disgusting Heat and Humidity we’ve had lately, not going to work and sitting in front of air conditioning may be your simple goal.

But really no Activity is necessary, you can be lazy...it’s YOUR Vacation!

We Yanks go on Vacation, the British go on Holiday!

And I… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: FREE FORM #7 PT.2

Well I picked out a song to start this Part 2, and that's all it took for my connection brain to take over, lol!

Suddenly I was scurrying around looking for songs about Tequila, you'll understand why.

It's still Free Form as long as I am picking the Music!

Have a drink for me, I gave it up long ago.

Try to just enjoy the Tunes, I don't want to get you drunk, lol!

ROCKOLLECTIONS: FREE FORM #7 PT.1

Time for a Radio Free Form Show, where I am going to try to just play Songs with no Theme.

Songs I like or have a memory for me, and music that should be heard somewhere!

There will be surprises in here so I will shut up and say no more.

But I will say there are Beatles, lol!

Join me for a listen to the opening half of Free Form Radio Show #7!

ROCKOLLECTIONS: THE FASHION SHOW PT.8 FINALE

This is it, wrapping up The Rockollections Fashion Show with a pretty bow and my usual flourish, lol!

It was a long journey and I thought we had Musically covered every piece of clothing.

And then it hit me...UNDERWEAR!

It will be duly noted.

After that, the scene is you are waiting for your Wife, Girlfriend, Date, whatever.

She comes out all dolled up and Takes Your Breath Away- She Looks Gorgeous!

I'll play four Songs that capture that feeling and express it in a… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: THE FASHION SHOW PT.7

It’s the 4th Week of The Rockollections Fashion Show, which is really only 4 Hours- not much if you consider all we wear.

I’ll begin with some Poetry On Poverty with a Coat!

Although I said No Shoes I couldn't resist playing one, but they are Boots, so a technicality, lol!

And to Truly cover you from Head To Toe, I’ve got Hats!

Now that we pretty much have a Complete and Fashionable Wardrobe, I think it’s time we went Steppin’ Out!

Give a listen, I think you'll enjoy… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: 4TH OF JULY PT.2 END

It is America's 247th 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 Presents The United States Of America to hear how the Revolutionary War turns out.

Leading us into a long set of Music, because I knew if I broke in to speak I would run out of time.

Thanks for… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: 4TH OF JULY PT.1

Well the 4th Of July is falling on the day of the Terrestrial Show this year.

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 quintessential American Group.

Then because it is the day my Rockollections Radio Show is broadcast, I thought I'd play something special, something I've never played before.

Stan Freberg Presents The United States Of America, Vol. 1, The Early Years!

In the 50's, Stan had… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: THE FASHION SHOW PT.6

Well we had Pants, here's something I put on before them, Shirts.

The Rockollections Fashion Show rolls up it's sleeves and continues with a Musical Look at Shirts this time!

Beginning with a beautiful song about how even Shirts can have Long, Well-Travelled Memories for us.

And watch out for that Collar!

Then Socks-, but not my kind of Socks.

Knee Socks, Bobby Sox- I didn't know much about what they were and needed help.

Another fun one, It's All Just About… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: THE FASHION SHOW PT.5

The Rockollections Fashion Show rolls on with a Musical Look at Pants, Trousers, Slacks, Jeans, whatever you want to call them.

Even Half Pants, lol!

I can be very mischievous, and I remembered a true story about a song I kept singing while visiting Amish country.

I’ll play it in here, as well as a few of the usual surprises.

Think you know a few Pants Songs?

See if you can anticipate the ones I thought of, it’s Free-Form Radio!

This will be a fun… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: THE FASHION SHOW PT.4

It's back to the Ladies on The Rockollections Fashion Show.

We are all adults here right?

Not all Ladies dress for Fashion, for some...ahem...it's Business!

Or Pleasure!

And there is something about a Woman In Red.

I'll end with a Song about the cheapest way to "Obtain" a Dress, with a certain risk involved.

My Venture Into The World Of Fashion will continue!
