Monday, Monday Brings More Cowbell, Joni Mitchell and Warren Zevon To the Mermaid Lounge, March 18, 2024

Good morning, music lovers. Yes, the work week has returned, but it’s not all bad. We’ve got some great stuff going on in The Lounge today. So, tune us in if you can!

Here’s your Monday lineup:

10:00 a.m. More Cowbell, Please: Various Artists

Bet you never knew there were so many songs with cowbell. We’ve got just over three hours today with The Beatles (the best cowbell ever on “I Call Your Name”), The Alan Parson’s Project, Argent, Aretha Franklin, CSNY, Edgar Winter, The Eagles, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Electric Light Orchestra, Harry Nilsson, the J. Geils Band, Joe Walsh, The Move, Linda Ronstadt, Journey, The Pretenders, Steely Dan, The Move, Little Feat, Creedence Clearwater Revival and more.

4:00 p.m. Joni Mitchell Live at Red Rocks Amphitheater, Morrison, CO, July 30, 1983

Nothing like a little ‘live’ Joni Mitchell in the afternoon, that’s what I always say. Today she’s live from the amazing natural surroundings of Red Rocks.

7:00 p.m. In The Spotlight: The Music of Warren Zevon

We haven’t aired this one in a while, so it’s time to break it out. Although a troubled soul through most of his life, he was a brilliant songwriter with a rich rock and roll voice.

This is the first day of the work week, and a good day to lock your office doors and tune in the music. I say ease yourself back into reality rather than jolt yourself. We’re waiting for you.
