KSHE KLASSICS SHOW, Mar. 28th, 2021

[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 an American address. This week, according to https://whatismyipaddress.com/ i was listening from Chicago again.]

Quotation Of The Week ~ Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: Music is an incomparably more powerful means and is a subtler language for expressing the thousand different moments of the soul's moods.

Lord, if i had to listen to commercial radio all the time i think i'd shoot myself in the head. (Although i'm a lousy shot, i'd probably miss.) (And the only gun i possess is a plastic Luger anyway.) Some of the ads are amusing but most are obnoxious. Ah, well, it's only four hours a week.... Or only one hour, if you remove all that pesky music.

Last week i alluded to an apparent misogyny at KSHE, whereby very, very few solo female artists make an appearance: the only two i could think of were Janis Joplin and Cheryl Dilcher. I forgot someone: Stevie Nicks. Of course, she's easy to overlook as her solo output is so forgettable. Janis dropped in this week – but with Big Brother & The Holding Company, not solo. The Wilson Sisters were here, too, but with Heart. I think this anti-female bias should be investigated! It's not that there are no candidates, no lack of rock steady chicks like Joan Osborne, Pat Benatar or Melissa Etheridge out there....

Anyway, this week's instalment. It pains me to grade this one a “mere” B. There was nothing wrong with it – and in fact not a single number that pissed me off (which is unusual) – but it wasn't superb, either. There were superb songs, for sure: in the first hour alone we had the triple whammy of Tull, Steely Dan and Pat Travers. Then wonderful songs by The Eagles and Bob Dylan and one of my very favourite Cat Stevens numbers. But the musical masterpieces were few and far between. All very nice schtuff, but....


Plus there seemed to be even more server glitches than usual, by which the song that KSHE's website says they're playing, isn't what's actually coming through the Altec Lansings. Oh Captain was by Wiggy Bits, not Chuck Berry. The Bob Dylan song was not by Johnny Vortex (who?); The Animals' number was not by Stir, and how could they confuse Badfinger with Thin Lizzy? Good grief....

KSHE KLASSICS SHOW, Mar. 21st, 2021

[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 an American address. This week, according to https://whatismyipaddress.com/ i was listening from Chicago – zip code 60602, to be precise.]

Quotation Of The Week ~ Albert Einstein: If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.

I was pondering, the other day, the fact that The Klassics Show and KSHE in general play very few solo female artists. Sure, the play groups with female lead singers occasionally – just today we had Renaissance (with Annie Haslam) and Heart (the Wilson sisters) and although she wasn't on today's Jefferson Starship track, Grace Slick. But solo? Cheryl Dilcher and Janis Joplin are the only two who come to mind. I was planning to write something about misogyny in the radio industry and what happened? Janis Joplin shows up! Nice.... (Incidentally, the guitarist on Janis's track was John Till, who lives in my town. I've never met him but i know his son, Mike – in fact i taught Mike how to do cryptic crossword puzzles.)

Grace Slick, now. Loved her in Jefferson Airplane and some of the music she made with Jefferson Starship was brilliant but apparently she had a love / hate relationship with the latter ensemble, especially after Micky Thomas joined as singer: she kept quitting and re-joining. She wasn't on today's track and i'm glad: it was a low point of the morning, Mr Thomas's caterwauling really was annoying. Also annoying was the Joe Perry “rock 'n' roll for dummies” number. Surprisingly, this morning's REO Speedwagon song wasn't annoying at all, just boring and banal.

I'm grading this morning's instalment an “A+”. Yes, sure, Dan Fogelberg showed up which would have automatically given it supersonic status, but i think i merited irrespective of that. For one thing, it was such a delightful surprise to hear Fairport Convention! Although i've heard Fairport on KSHE before – on my friend and their former dee-jay Tommy T's overnight show – i don't recall them ever stopping in on a Sunday morning before. Plus we had one of The Who's finest moments, along with ELO, Wings, The Moody Blues and The Byrds. Just magic.

A couple of technical notes: contrary to what the KSHE website posted, It Keeps You Runnin' was not The Black Crowes' Black Moon Creeping, and Motherless Children was not Queen's Fun It.

Here's poor old Janis, and the playlist:




Queen – Keep Yourself Alive

Janis Joplin – Move Over

Ambrosia – No Big Deal

My own personal playlist isn't an especially long one this week, partly because of the three multiple-disc sets and also because work has been busy – and that's okay with me, but it does interfere with my music-listening time.

KSHE KLASSICS SHOW, Mar. 14th, 2021

[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 an American address. This week, according to https://whatismyipaddress.com/ i was listening from San Francisco.]

Quotation Of The Week ~ Kingsley Amis: Only a world without love strikes me as instantly and decisively more terrible than one without music.

Hidden away in this week's ad-stravaganza (amongst the spots for used cars, sleep aids and real jewellery real cheap) were a couple of nice surprises: i'd never heard a schlafly.com spot here before: when i was in St Louis, Schlafly beers were some of the best beers i've ever tasted. Too bad they don't distribute their wares outside Missouri and Illinois. The Bank Of America was on this morning, too, for the first time that i can recall. In some way, my bank here has a kind of partnership with them whereby they were the only bank where i was able to use my debit card. I didn't need to do so very often but i was always impressed by the friendliness and the service.

As for that schtuff of lesser importance – the music – it's definitely a grade of A for this week's program.

What a great way to start, too! Jeff Beck is my second favourite guitarist ever, and yet, incredibly, i don't have the album Freeway Jam comes from. I rectified that using the Amazon app on my iPad during the first commercial break. (Yes, yes, i hate Amazon, too, but i know not where else to go now that all of the record stores closed.)

Beyond that, what to say? You may never have heard of The Blue Jays – not the baseball team. They were a Moody Blues spin-off featuring Justin Hayward and John Lodge and, somewhat predictably, everything i've heard of theirs has sounded like a Moody Blues' “B” side: perfectly listenable, but hardly earth-shaking. Fortunately there was a lot of earth-shaking music today. I love that Crosby & Nash song (although the KSHE web page said that it was Paradise By The Dashboard Light by Meatloaf – thank god it wasn't!) Other highlights ... well, where to start. Big Country, Eagles, Todd, Greg Kihn, Heart, all seventeen-plus minutes of Iron Butterfly and of course a song that changed music forever, Like A Rolling Stone.

In fact, there was really only one song that irked me today, and that was the Blood, Sweat & Tears. I actually liked their debut album when Al Kooper was their driving force, but when he left the band they seemed to embrace clichés as a musical style – the jazz charts? Pshaw, pshaw, i say: third-rate Chicago. Plus i have a personal dislike of their singer, David Clayton Thomas, a whitebread Ray Charles – i met him once and he was a complete pillock.

Anyway, here's the playlist, and a pic for which i apologise in advance:

KSHE KLASSICS SHOW, Mar. 7th, 2021

 [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 an American address. Evidently at some point this week i got my kicks on Route 66 because last week i was in Chicago and this week, according to https://whatismyipaddress.com/ i was in L.A.]

Quotation Of The Week ~ Frank Zappa: The mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work if it isn't open.

To get the important stuff – the ads – out of the way first, i've mentioned before how strange it seems to me to hear hospitals advertising on the radio. We had none today but we did have dermatologists, which is almost as odd. Fortunately we also had Bart Inman. And nothing from insurance salesman Big Lou or used car dealer Pickle Man. Nice!

Michael Stanley was an artist who was extremely popular in St Louis and throughout The States, but i don't ever recall hearing his music, either solo or with his band, until i started listening to KSHE back when dinosaurs ruled the earth. I liked it, and although i never bought any of his albums, there was nothing wrong with it at all. (I looked for a best-of collection once but there doesn't seem to be one available.) Michael died of lung cancer last week at the age of 72, and as a tribute the first two songs this morning were his – and they were two of his best, and then there was a darned good selection from The Michael Stanley Band towards the end of the show. Uman's voice was definitely cracking when he announced it, R.I.P., Michael. (I know that i'm cynical about the record industry: i expect that, now that he's gone, we'll be inundated with re-issues, previously-unreleased radio broadcasts and compilations.)

Apart from the slight pall that lay over the program because of that news, it was an excellent one today, undeniably worthy of a grade of A. Okay, there was REO Speedwagon and their miserable and cringeworthy attempt at pop-rock balladry, but otherwise there wasn't a duff track anywhere. I even liked the Derek & The Dominos piece and, let's face it, their album was mostly a cocaine and drug-fuelled mess. But then there was some brilliant music, including the extraordinary Hocus Pocus by Focus, which was definitely the highlight of the morning for me, plus Cat Stevens, a Todd Rundgren twofer, and Paul McCartney's favourite song of all time, God Only Knows. (It must be nice to be so definite: i like the song but i couldn't choose one favourite song of all time – i'd have trouble choosing a top 500!)

Anyway, here's the playlist, and Michael Stanley.



Michael Stanley – Let's Get The Show On The Road

KSHE KLASSICS SHOW, Feb. 28th, 2021

[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 an American address. This week, according to https://whatismyipaddress.com/ i was listening from Chigago again.]

Quotation Of The Week ~ Irving Berlin: Music is so important. It changes thinking, it influences everybody, whether they know it or not. Music knows no boundary lines.

It may just have been my imagination, but it seemed to me that there were more ads (thus less music) than usual this morning, including one for Mercy Hospital ("Your life is our life's work") and hearing hospitals advertise for customers is something that really bemuses me. I keep having to remind myself that the U.S.A. is a foreign country.

An excellent start to today's show with one of my favourite Stephen Stills songs, and there were quite a few favourites to follow and of course Dan Fogelberg, which means that we grade this edition an "A+".

The song by The Who that followed is definitely not one of their best but later on Uman played Dr Jimmy which definitely is a top fave Who number, so all is forgiven. In fact today's show was full of less-than-stellar songs by performers i love, as well as the usual complement of brilliant music by Neil Young, Tull, Arlo Guthrie and Steely Dan. There was, in fact, only one sour moment: Ted Nugent's dreadful number about the joys of going out into the wild and slaughtering furry woodlnd creatures. I'm looking forward to the day when the animals start fighting back...
