2/22- THE POWER OF TWO! PT.2 END

I knew going into this that I would regretfully disappoint people by not playing their own particular favorite Duo- there are too many of them to please everybody.

But I will open this ending episide with a couple of biggies, ones that I knew I HAD to play.

Even as the show was progressing though, I was thinking of other Duos that I should play but wouldn’t have time for.

But that is what sequels are for- we’ll do it again some time.

I talked about what I thought was the…

2/22- THE POWER OF TWO! PT.1

Looking at the calendar, I see today is Feb. 22nd, or 2/22.

So all those 2’s were enough of a reason for me to play some of the great Duos in Rock.

And that is exactly what I will do.

The Indigo Girls have the perfect song for…

FOR A VALENTINES HANGOVER, A LOOK AT LOVE PT.2

Another Look At that part of Love that has the bumps in the road and the bruises that come with them.

All part of this Valentine's Hangover!

This time I'll start off with a reference back to last week, then a reference to the last half hour.

Including a song where we are the one doing the hurting, before we return to our safe haven as victim.

Then the…

FOR A VALENTINES HANGOVER, A LOOK AT LOVE PT.1

Well Valentine's Day has come and gone, and of course I hope you had a great one.

I myself worked late, lol!

Last week, we tried to get a handle on Love- using songs for what it is, what it can be, etc.

This week, the Valentines Hangover- a NOT all sweetness, flowers and candy musical investigation of the other side of Love- for that faction who wants nothing to do with it, and all others who have been stung by it.

In other words, if you are over the age…

FOR VALENTINE’S- ALL HEART SONGS (EXCEPT ONE) PT.1 & PT.2 END

Here's a show I did a few years ago for Valentine's Day.

It is similar to what I am doing this year, but just the one show, and it was "Heart" instead of "Love".

Came out pretty good I thought, so you might enjoy it.

I hope so!

FOR VALENTINES, A LOOK AT LOVE PT.2

More Love songs for the approaching Valentine's Day, and ALL will have Love in the title.

And I managed to free-form it all the way to the last song of this chapter, with songs that BEGIN with the word Love!

So with the exception of the very first song of the hour and the ending one, I hit what I shot for.

Probably means little to you, but it was a nice challenge for me, and I will somewhat continue it next week.

I say somewhat because I haven't done next…

FOR VALENTINES, A LOOK AT LOVE PT.1

Since Valentine's Day is less than a week away, I thought a Look At Love might be in order.
Now the ground rules I set for myself were that ALL songs would have the word "Love" in the title.
But with the exception of the first song I played, I noticed an interesting pattern developing...every song I chose had "Love" as the FIRST word in the…

COVERED BY THE BEATLES VOL.1 - PT.2

For their initial visit to America on Feb.7, 1964, I will continue through the covers on that first Beatle album in England, Please Please Me.
One of them was the title song of a play, and on the soundtrack for that play as well as 2 other versions that charted, it was an…

COVERED BY THE BEATLES VOL.1 - PT.1

I was thinking it might be fun to commemorate the Beatles first arrival in America on Feb.7, 1964 somehow.

Plus I have long been thinking of doing an "every now and then" series based on songs originally done by other artists that were recorded by them, or as it is more commonly known, Covered By The Beatles.

Seemed like this would be a great time to start, so here is…
