KSHE KLASSICS SHOW, JAN. 20th, 2019

Quotation du jour ~ Daniel Barenboim: I have music in my brain all the time, all sorts.

[As you may or may not know, i live in Canada, and for some reason KSHE doesn't stream their audio to here and i have to connect via a VPN, to spoof a non-Canadian address. This week, according to https://whatismyipaddress.com/ i was listening from twenty miles south of Atlanta, in Irondale, Georgia, pop. 7446. I've never been there before (although i've been to Atlanta).]

Today's show just barely merits an A- -- which is still pretty darned good of course. Along with the usual songs that i love dearly, there was also some pretty ordinary schtuff: Huey Lewis? Randy Pie? The Marshall Tucker song is probably the one of theirs that i like the least, and when Uman announced that he was about to play a track by Aphrodite's Child, i shuddered, fearing that it would be the dreadful “The Four Horsemen.” It wasn't, thank Spriggs, but the song he did play was pretty tedious.

Highlights for me were Rockpile, The Byrds, Poco, Robin Trower, Elvin Bishop and 10 c.c., and, as usual, the program ended 'way before i was ready for it to do so.
