At Midweek We Give You Our House EP, a J.J. Cale Spotlight Feature and The First Volume of Our New Love Street Playlist, Wednesday October 2, 2024

Good morning, music lovers and welcome to The Mermaid Lounge. We’ve got some great music today, including volume one of our new ‘I See You Live on Love Street’ playlist.

Here’s your midweek musical lineup:

9:00 a.m. The #BecomeUngovernable House Playlist: Various Artists

Yes, we start it all off with five hours of the music that inspired us to start this little experiment to begin with from The Beatles, Barry McGuire, The Temptations, Edwin Starr, Peter Tosh, Country Joe & The Fish, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, CSNY, Joan Baez, Pink Floyd, The Animals, Plastic Ono Band, The Rolling Stones, Joni Mitchell, Jimi Hendrix, Marvin Gaye, The Association, Phil Ochs, Tom Rush, Pete Seeger, The Band, Bob Dylan, Nina Simone, Janis Joplin and more!

4:00 p.m. In The Spotlight: The Music of J. J. Cale

The man who invented the Oklahoma sound gave us a body of work that many have recorded over and over, yet fame eluded him. I’m not sure J.J. Cale ever needed fame, though. He was content with having the respect of his peers.

This is a new playlist for us and, while it does include many of the artists of our big EP, these are different songs from those artists and it also includes a bunch of artists that I bet you never knew passed through the Laurel Canyon music scene. Artists include The Monkees, The Association, Paul Revere & The Raiders, The Stone Poneys, The Doors, Scott McKenzie, The Byrds, Captain Beefheart and more! Volumes Two and Three will happen over Thursday and Friday.

We’re on 24/7 and we’re totally free all day every day. We’re not interested in tracking anyone because we’re not selling anything. And we don’t need no stinking credit cards. The button is below.

It’s Mudcrutch Monday, J. Geils is in The Spotlight, & Spend Some Time With Frank Zappa & Captain Beefheart, on Monday, February 3, 2020

Good Morning, Ungovernables! We have a light programming and more streaming day today to start out the week. Nevertheless, we’re in for some fun.

J Geils Band Baby

 

Here’s your Monday line-up:

11:00 a.m.    In the Spotlight: The J. Geils Band

Aerosmith isn’t the only band to come out of Boston. In fact, we have the J. Geils Band with front man Peter Wolf.

5:00 p.m.      Mudcrutch Madness on Mudcrutch Monday

Hear it all right here: The band that would become Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, then return to the scene in 2008 to make some more great music.

9:00 p.m.      An Evening With Frank Zappa & Captain Beefheart

Need I say more here? Live from Providence College in 1975.

Tune us in, people: We’re free. We’re easy. What could be better?

Onward With the Petty Party, Mudcrutch, How Sweet Soul Music Is, and Frank Zappa Meets Captain Beefheart, Monday, October 7, 2019

Good Morning, Ungovernables! We’re continuing on with the Petty Party today, and we’re introducing something brand new.

10:00 a.m.     That Sweet Soul Sound

From the Reverend Al to the Temptations. There’s no finer sound.

1:00 p.m.       Mudcrutch Madness

The band that left Gainesville with Tom Petty may not have worked out the way he wanted, but it morphed into Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. The rest, as they say, is musical history.

5:00 p.m.       An Evening with Frank Zappa and Captain Beefheart

Not sure much else needs to be said here!

9:00 p.m.       Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers Live at the Olympic (2002)
