Quotation du jour ~
Confucius: Music produces a kind of pleasure which human nature
cannot do without.
[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 San Francisco once more.]
John Ulett dedicated
the first song today to the memory of Ray Sawyer of Dr Hook, who died
on December 31st at the age of 81. It was a morbid start to a mostly
pretty good installment of the show and was probably the worst
song he played today – although the REO Speedwagon came a close
second.
I'm giving in an “A+”
because of the inclusion of a Dan Fogelberg song. Otherwise, though,
there were only a few songs i can honestly say i love, but most of
those, i love a lot! OMG, Buffalo Springfield, Manfred Mann,
Billy Joel.... And let's just say i'm glad i made to the bathroom
before the Yes song came on – having seven cups of tea results in
certain ablutionary necessities – i would have hated to miss a
second of it. Definitely the highlight of the program. And, as much
as i enjoyed it, i don't really think that Stanley Clarke can be
considered classic rock. Classic jazz-rock fusion for sure, though!
