[As you may or may
not know, i live in Canada, and for some reason KSHE doesn't stream
their audio to here; 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.]
Well,
that was fun! This week's show definitely scores an A.
There
was some brilliant music, some pretty obscure schtuff – nothing too
annoying, although i don't think i've ever heard a Stevie Nicks solo
recording that didn't get on my nerves at least a little – one song
that didn't really belong (the 90's power ballad by Giant) and one
number that made me think i was listening to Radio Paradise, Michael
Quatro interpreting Rachmaninoff.
The
highlight was probably the Yes song in the final hour, but there were
quite a few to choose from. In fact, i ordered Jackson Browne's CD on
the strength of his brilliant song. The lowlight? Probably Normie
Rowe, whose song was utterly inconsequential.
And,
well done, U.S.A., in the women's football (or, soccer, for those
outside most of the world). Megan Rapinoe for president!
