ROCKOLLECTIONS: GET YER LA LA'S OUT PT.4

More of Get Yer La La's Out, and I'll start this Chapter with a few you know, but do you remember the La La's?

Then a pair of Leopard Skin Headphones, kind of expensive I would think, put pick up a pair the next time you go Shopping!

After that a song with serious lyrics, mostly about Hollywood, from a terrific album that went largely unnoticed.

To close, Songs About Singing!

A return to La La Land is planned for next week, for more Get Yer La La's Out.

But kindly do… Continue

ROCKOLLECTIONS: GET YER LA LA'S OUT PT.3

It's Week Two of Get Yer La La's Out, and I'll start with an Oldie.

I love the Element Of Surprise- the Songs and Groups and Artists you wouldn't expect La La's from.

Like The Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin and The Beach Boys.

And if they did have La La's in them, what songs would they be?

Join me for a trip to La La Land!

ROCKOLLECTIONS: KENTUCKY DERBY PT.2 END

As we conclude our Musical Kentucky Derby , I know a horse I would bet on but he is for a very good reason not on the field, not a contender.

Then I'll play a couple of songs that are not only about Horses, but RACEHORSES!

What’s that expression, “You can lead a horse to water, but…”?

Followed by a song that seems to bring out strong emotions in people, both for and against.

Finally, and all out of breath, I will leave you with a perfectly named song that was # 2 on the… Continue
