Classic Rock Bottom

ALRIGHT!!! It's snowing here again, and I LOVE it!
And in my usual childish way I had to get out there in it, just came in and I have to report it is not the best snow for throwing snowballs, kinda flaky but if you stick with it you can get a decent one to throw.
Well...ahem...on to the show.
 
This is a tradition I have been doing for years, but I skipped it last year- thought it might be getting played out.
Now I felt like bringing it back.
It's a celebration of the lives of those we lost in the previous year- in this case 2010.
Mostly, it's an Irish Wake!
Many of these people have undoubtedly touched you in some way, shape or form, and made your life a bit happier and more pleasant.
For the musical folks who passed on, they are deserving of one more play, at least.
And we will deal with some other cultural figures as well, from TV, movies, etc.
You are welcome to anticipate or second-guess my own musical choices!
In this opening episode, those selected are, and this is as close to a playlist as you will ever see from me, lol:
Tony Clarke
Kate McGarrigle
Alex Chilton 
Johnny Maestro.

For these folks we pay tribute to and memorialize, they can’t give any more than they have.
 
Here's the living link to some people who made me smile, at WLSO.FM:

But I feel violated, like my mind has been read, lol!

You guys are GOOD!

...Then I'm going with Rainbow...

Ronnie And The Redcaps (which always makes me think Ronnie and the D-Cups)...

 

That's a great line!

But I'm surprised it doesn't make you think of Seinfeld, LOL!

Ronnie went back to the 50's, those early days of Rock & Roll- but he made the adjustments and always sounded in the times.

Niels & RJ,

No to both of you.

Elf is a fascinating guess though.

Actually I surprised myself with the choice, forgot how much I liked it...hell I forgot he was in the group, lol!
It is pre-Black Sabbath.
