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…

It is National Novel Writing Month and I am playing Music for it.

Beginning with a Springsteen song done better by my man Dion in a joyous Retro-style!

Then it is on to to some Novel Writing- although they may be Non-Fiction, Hardcover or…

I had nothing planned for this week, so I took a look at one of those Offbeat Wacky Calendars.

And I discovered November 2019 was National Novel Writing Month!

I wasn't sure what I would play but the Challenge was there...and I TOOK…

1. This is the home stretch for the Rockollections Fall Fashion Show with Shoes.
   
   In this final chapter, a few Songs about sending a Message with Shoes.
   
   Also a couple that didn't fit in anywhere else, but I wanted to play them.…
   
   

More of the Rockollections Fall Fashion Show with Shoes...this time Boots.

There's nothing better to warm the chill like a Woman wearing Sexy Boots!

It's Rock & Roll Meets…

It's something different for Halloween this year, Screams In Rock & Roll.

You can get the Monster Mash elsewhere, that's easy!

I have a terrific Headphone Song in here, with lots of Screams.

I can…

I thought for Halloween this year we'd give a listen to some Screams In Rock & Roll.

Sometimes they come right at you and sometimes you wait till the end, or they can be anytime in between.

Words are not always enough in…

We continue with the Rockollections Fall Fashion Show with Shoes.

It's strange, but no matter how minor or innocuous some Theme Shows and Series are- and this certainly is not in any way profound- there are always serious songs within that Theme.…

A few years ago, I did a Series of shows on Fashion- not that I know anything about Fashion, but I do know Songs, lol!

This time I will limit myself to just one aspect of apparel- Shoes.

As you will hear me say, I fully expect and accept that I…

The idea arrived with the Nina, the Pinta or the Santa Maria, a celebration of Italian-Americans in Rock & Roll and Popular Music!

In that vein, I'll have more Real Names, beginning with Lugee Alfredo Giovanni Sacco.

Of course, we know him by…

I trust you had a good Columbus Day, maybe with the day off from work.

And I will continue what I started last week, a celebration of Italian-Americans in Rock & Roll and Popular Music!

Of course that doesn't guarantee that they all could…

It's a celebration of Italian-Americans in Rock & Roll and Popular Music, inspired by the coming Columbus Day.

The opening Chapter was heavy on the Pop, this will have more Rock, as I move through the years- but I play them as I think of them!…

This coming Monday is Columbus Day.

And Christopher Columbus is now becoming a villain in some circles, just to annoy me, lol!

But not in this Irish-Italian guy's house- in mine he will be celebrated and a day off will be…

Chugging along with Rockollections Goes To The Movies, I'll open with a song that was written and recorded by Paul McCartney, and rejected by the producers of a 1978 Movie.

After that, some songs from Movies Of The 70's.

Including most…
