ROCKOLLECTIONS: LET IT RAIN PT.4

Continuing with our April Showers and Rain Series, I'll get a little serious regarding Farmers.

Too little Rain or too much Rain and you are in a World Of Hurt, it's a tricky balance.

Don't make enough money, you might lose your farm!

After that, a lighter touch as we lay back and groove while it rains and we dream.

Plus there is no finer time for Romance (or even more if you handle it right, and find a willing…

ROCKOLLECTIONS: LET IT RAIN PT.3

There has been far more Rain in these shows than we have actually had in April.

I'm not sure if it has really rained at all here where I live!

Among other things, I'll take a look at Rainmakers in this episode- those who say they can do it and those who believe in them.

Included in this chapter, a song I once considered myself too hip to play, an old FM Turntable Hit for those of us who remember it, and a…

ROCKOLLECTIONS: LET IT RAIN PT.2

I was thinking during the break about that somewhat lame Rain sound effect I used in the first half.

That got me to thinking about songs that have the Sound Of Rain in them.

And what was the first one I remember hearing?

I should have done this during the Academy Awards, lol!

So in this episode I will present, and it's just my opinion, the Award For Best Song That Contains Rain Sound Effects!

A sort of Golden…

ROCKOLLECTIONS: LET IT RAIN PT.1

This is another of those Theme Series I have long thought about doing.

I like the Rain- of course I like Snow better- but Rain can be very enjoyable, romantic, calming and a whole lot of other things.

I should hit on some songs you have forgotten about and have not heard in years in this Series.

And for the sake of Realism, I will even start with that Period Just Before It Rains.

Let's have some Musical Fun and Get…

ROCKOLLECTIONS: THE END OF TIME PT.2 FINALE

This is it, the Final Chapter- The End Of Time!

Just think, the Series was inspired by, and started, just a few days after the New Year!

And what a long strange Trip it's been.

I have said before I place a great emphasis on Beginning and Ending Songs in a Series.

In this case I had two, hope you enjoy both.

Time is Precious.

I thank you for spending it with me for all or some of this Look At…

ROCKOLLECTIONS: THE END OF TIME PT.1

Sure it's a melodramatic Title, but it's the beginning of the End of The Longest Series I've ever done- on Time!

And it's Time to put it to bed!

These Songs are not at all Leftovers, they are as valid and good as anything that came before.

I've played quite a few Tunes in this Series simply called Time- I have a couple more from the 60's.

All in all, it's the usual collection of Songs You Know, Songs You Don't, and…
