ROCKOLLECTIONS: LET IT RAIN PT.6

[Mike Pell]

I decided to go Folk in this Chapter.
Included in this Episode is the urgent thought, during the old Cold War, of Rain As Metaphor for Nuclear War and Radioactive Fallout- hang onto something if you have never heard these- the poetic words will come fast and furious!
A Randy Newman song dripping with sadness and sarcasm- I'll be playing my favorite version by someone that may surprise you.
Followed quickly by one that will pick you right up and make you feel glad you have those good times, bad times, true friends.
All the ingredients that are usually contained in these shows are here, but with a Folk & Folk Rock bent.
Give this one a listen- a close, get-back-to-when-the-lyrics-mattered listen!
If you like that, you won't be disappointed.

Jon,

Ah, I play what I WANT, fuck the audience, LOL!

I was going Folk, and it fit- I am sure I have done more than 2 plays at other times.

Thanks for the listen,

Mike

So you played Gordon Lightfoot twice in one show? You couldn't have waited????????
