It's an Endless Wine Tasting Party, and I will continue it next week!

You may not have thought there were that many songs for Wine, or that I knew of them, lol!

I'll start with a song I didn't intend to play, but a couple of people suggested it…

I'll have a Cracklin' start for this Chapter of the Wine Tasting Party.

Then I will deliver on the promise of an Upgrade I made last week.

We'll Pop The Cork on some Champagne!

After all, the Bubbly is…

This Episode of the Wine Tasting Party starts with a song you should know.

What you may not know is who wrote it.

I remember being surprised myself- it's a Folk Singer who wrote it in the Early 60's!

And…

It is Week Two of the Wine Tasting Party.

I'll begin with a Song simply called Wine, no Spo-Dee-O-Dee but it is that, by the Electric Flag.

I will play an Original, and a Cover that is so different it is almost unrecognizable!…

The Wine Tasting Party continues with...Cream with your Wine?

Some of the Songs played have mentioned Wine made with Berries- Fruit Wines- very popular with Home Winemakers!

We'll hear a nice Set for them.…

It's the First Show of the New Year 2020, so I propose a probably mispronounced Toast To Life!

Then one I'll get right, lol!

Decorations are still hung, so I am calling this a Holiday Wine Tasting Party.…

The New Year is the inspiration for this Show, a Musical Look At Time.

It's taken 2,020 Years for 2020- a Long Time Coming!

Time is Precious and is always Speeding Past, I'll make a note of that

Plus how…

For the last show of 2019, a few songs for the Turning Of The Year to start.

Then Music For The Passage of Time.

Life is pretty much all about Time!

We look at Time with a mixture of Happiness,…

It's rare fun this Show falling on December 24th.

So Christmas Eve is the Theme.

And EVERY song played so far takes place on Christmas Eve!

That will continue until the last song…

1. While thinking about a Theme for this year’s Christmas Shows, I saw that the second week's terrestrial broadcast would fall on Christmas Eve.
   
   Very rare, the show falling on December 24th.
   
   So the Theme for these next two halves is in fact…

Welcome back to the Annual Two Week Christmas Party.

As always, you will NOT hear the same old same old Christmas Music.

I’ll open this half with a cut from one of the Great Holiday Albums- Surf Guitar Meets Wintry Christmas Songs, and with…

I had a difficult time getting my head into Christmas beginning this Show.

Some things in my life have changed, I am in a temporary state of flux.

Hard to believe It's Been A Year, and Suddenly It's Christmas!…

This is the Final Topic for the 60's Poets, Social Commentary, for a Series I started a few years ago

The other Topics in case you forgot were Loneliness, Love, War and Peace and Poverty!

I'll begin with a Song that caused a bit of a stir back in…

It's been a long while since I played The Poets.

I had chosen 5 Topics for The 60's Poets.

And this is the Final Topic- Social Commentary!

That's a wide range of subjects to choose from, and choose I…

THIS IS A RERUN FROM 2016!

More Favorites and Guilty Pleasures- I and I will be very GUILTY!

Starting with a Song I just felt like hearing.

Then a trip back to the Past, with a few things you may not…

THIS IS A RERUN FROM 2016!

Too many Series lately, so a good Old Fashioned Free-Form Flow of Songs.

Sometimes you’re Up sometimes you’re Down, That’s The Way The World Goes Round- half an inch of water and you think you’re gonna…

The Holiday is getting very close as people are making there way Home For Thanksgiving.

I realized I hadn't played a Turkey song yet, and if we had chosen differently we could just as easily be eating Eagle!

I try not to repeat songs on this…

It's the Annual Thanksgiving Show, one I always enjoy doing!

There are songs I love that are a perfect fit for Thanksgiving, and I could play them every year.

But I don't like to repeat Songs, there are too many that never get…

French Class wraps up with more Rock & Roll and Pop Songs that have French in them.

After the first half, these might be a bit more unknown- of course, that depends on who's doing the listening!

There are times in your Life that you hear and…

At last, I finally got to do the French Class show I've been thinking about for a long time.

The simple premise is Rock & Roll and Pop Songs that have French in them.

I am sure everybody would have their own list, these are some that happen…
