It’s Crazy in The Lounge Today! We Say Farewell to Our AOW and Jagger/Richards, and Welcome the Ladies of Music and Garcia/Hunter, Saturday, September 16, 2023

Good morning, weekenders! It’s an unusually busy day here on a Saturday because we dedicated Friday to The Beatles, our big-ass House Band. We’ve got some cramming to do today!

Here’s your musical lineup:

9:00 a.m. Album of The Week: Red Rose Speedway by Paul McCartney & Wings FINAL AIRING!

We bid a fond farewell to this week’s album. Tomorrow, we’ll have a brand new selection for you.

11:00 a.m. Ladies Day Out: Various Artists

We’ll have an update coming soon but, in the meantime, you can hear Linda Ronstadt, Bonnie Raitt, Carly Simon, Emmylou Harris, Petula Clark, Laura Nyro, Cilla Black, Irma Thomas, Aretha Franklin, Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez, Etta James, Janis Joplin, Carole King, Maria Muldaur, Lucinda Williams, Rosanne Cash, Eva Cassidy, Wendy Waldman, Shawn Colvin, The Ronettes, Diana Ross & The Supremes, Gladys Knight & The Pips, Norah Jones, Phoebe Snow, Nicolette Larson, Sheryl Crowe, Susan Tedeschi, Valerie Carter, Dusty Springfield, Dolly Parton and more!

6:00 p.m. Singer-Songwriter Series: The Music of Mick Jagger & Keith Richards FINAL AIRING!

We say our goodbyes to this week’s featured singer-songwriting duo of Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.

10:00 p.m. Singer-Songwriter Series: The Music of Jerry Garcia & Robert Hunter NEW!

And we ring in our featured singer-songwriters for the coming week! While it’s true that Robert Hunter didn’t “sing” we like to bend the rules here. They started out as a folk duo during the sixties and wound up writing some classic Grateful Dead tunes, like Dark Star, Shakedown Street, Casey Jones, Fire On The Mountain and many others.

Yeah, it’s busy, but the living is easy and the music is outstanding. Kick off those shoes and tune us in. It’s Saturday!

Ladies Day Out!

We’re at Midweek With the ‘Ode To Morning’ EP, Jagger & Richards, and a Trip to Soulsville, U.S.A., Wednesday, September 13, 2023

Good morning, music lovers. We’re at the mid point of the week and we’ve got our ‘Ode To Morning’ EP to start off, followed by our singer-songwriters and a tribute to Stax Records!

Here’s the midweek lineup:

9:00 a.m. Ode To Morning: Various Artists

4:00 p.m. Singer-Songwriter Series: The Music of Mick Jagger & Keith Richards

Rumor has it these two guys can’t really stand each other. Who knew? And who knows if that’s true in the Land of Misinformation? Here’s what I do know: They’ve made a hell of a lot of great music together. Let’s leave it at that.

8:00 p.m. Soulsville, U.S.A.: Various Artists NEW!

We pay homage to Stax Records, home of Booker T. & The MG’s, who actually started out as the official Stax House Band playing behind all those great R & B artists before becoming legends in their own right. You’ll also hear Sam & Dave, Carla Thomas, Otis Redding, Eddie Floyd, The Delfonics, The Dramatics, Albert King and Rufus Thomas.

This is an especially great day to tune us in since we have finally gotten one of our desired playlists off the drawing board and onto the server. You’ll like the Soulsville, U.S.A. playlist. We’re sure of it.

Soulsville, U.S.A.

The Sounds of Laurel Canyon, Jimmy Buffett’s Final AOW Airing, Jagger/Richards are the New Singer-Songwriters, Saturday, September 9, 2023

Good morning, musicologists! The weekenders are here and we’ve got some great stuff lined up starting early this morning. You’ll need to roll yourself out of bed early today!

Here’s where we’re at today:

9:00 a.m. Album of The Week: Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes by Jimmy Buffett FINAL AIRING!

I have said over the years and will continue to say over the rest of my time on earth that this is one of my favorite albums of all time. If we can call Jimmy Buffett’s attractiion ‘a feeling,’ then we can call this album all about ‘a feeling.’ It’s complicated, and we don’t care. Because deep down inside, we’re all Parrot Heads.

11:00 a.m. Music From Laurel Canyon: Various Artists UPDATE COMING SOON!

This is the music incubator for two generations of geniuses, including those who melded rock with country and folk. You’ll hear The Byrds, The Mamas & The Papas, Buffalo Springfield, The Beach Boys, The Doors, The Lovin’ Spoonful, Jackson Browne, Joni Mitchell, The Monkees, CSNY, Manassas, John Mayall, The Eagles, J.D. Souther, Harry Nilsson, Canned Heat, Linda Ronstadt, Carole King, James Taylor, Joan Baez, Judy Collins, The Souther-Hillman-Furay Band and more!

8:00 p.m. Singer-Songwriter Series: The Music of Mick Jagger & Keith Richards NEW!

How many songs have they given us? It’s still a mystery after all these years. Some say 165 songs, while others put it somewhere in the 300+ range. Why quibble? Either way, they’ve given us a boatload of great songs. They are this week’s featured singer-songwriters.

It’s the weekend, homies. Get on board. We’re on this jig 24/7 at no charge to the human race. And we don’t accept commercial advertising either. We’re all about the music. Swear to it.

This way to Laurel Canyon!

It’s Tuesday Bluesday With Stevie Ray Vaughan In the Spotlight, Mick Jagger & Jeff Beck Live in Reseda, and Eva Cassidy & Our AOW on March 16, 2021

Good Morning, Bluesologists! We’ve got some great programming as we introduce a new Spotlight featuring blues guitar legend Stevie Ray Vaughan. We also have Mick Jagger and Jeff Beck live.

The late, great Stevie Ray Vaughan is In The Spotlight this morning.

Here’s today’s programming:

11:00 a.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of Stevie Ray Vaughan NEW!

Today we introduce a brand new Spotlight featuring blues guitar great Stevie Ray Vaughan, some cuts studio and some live, a couple live with Double Trouble. This has been a long time coming.

We have added the track list to the Playlist section of the blog.

3:00 p.m. Album of The Week: Songbird by Eva Cassidy

Today is our second airing of Eva Cassidy’s Songbird album, a compilation album released posthumously. Eva Cassidy never got to appreciate stardom, dying tragically of cancer at the age of 33 in 1996, but her music lives on.

7:00 p.m. Mick Jagger & Jeff Beck Live at The Country Club, Reseda, CA, October 20, 1978

Speaking of the blues, this is a great bootleg from The Country Club. Rounding out the band we have Doug Wimbish on bass, Terry Bozio on drums, and Phil Ashley on keyboards.

Tune us in, folks. We have worldwide reach and plenty of countries are on board. Today we have France, Germany, Denmark, Estonia, Italy, Greece, the UK, Japan, Australia, and even the United States.

It’s Tuesday Bluesday With John Mayall, Mick Jagger & Jeff Beck; The Dirty Knobs Are Back With Our AOW, December 1, 2020

Good Morning, and welcome to December. The Shadow starts on Wednesday, but today we’ve got some Tuesday Bluesday music and Three-in-a Row’s lined up.

John Mayall is known as the Godfather of British Blues for a reason.

Here’s today’s line-up:

11:00 a.m. John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers Live at The BBC (1965-1967)

Today we’ve got all the Bluesbreakers recordings done for the BBC between 1965 and 1967. We are always on the hunt for new music. We’ve got places to go that I’m not even sure how we’ve found, but we’re back on the hunt for some authentic blues again. In the meantime, there’s a reason why John Mayall is known as the Godfather of British Blues. You’ll see.

3:00 p.m. Album of The Week: Wreckless Abandon by The Dirty Knobs

A great debut album worth the wait in the midst of this pestilence. It is in today’s pipeline and also now in our general rotation.

7:00 p.m. Mick Jagger & Jeff Beck Live at The Country Club, Reseda, CA, October 20, 1987

This is a short little soundboard interlude here with Mick Jagger and Jeff Beck. This was originally a session to record a promo; what ensues here is what happened in between takes, apparently. There is reportedly a longer version of this out there somewhere. I’m determined to find it. In the meantime, enjoy this one.

The rest of the day is Open Stream with some Three-in-a-Rows tossed in for good measure. Enjoy your day!

It’s Alive All Day Long: Bob Dylan’s Rare Performances, Little Feat Live in London, and The Rolling Stones Live in San Jose, Monday, September 28, 2020

Happy Monday, Slaves! We hope you enjoyed BLUES WEEK. We have some great programming coming up as we slide on into Petty month here in The Mermaid Lounge later this week.

Lowell George and Paul Barrere of Little Feat, perhaps the most underrated band in rock music history.

Here’s Monday’s great line-up:

11:00 a.m. Bob Dylan: Rare Performances From The Copyright Collection, 1962-1966

We haven’t had any live Dylan here for a while, and we must remedy that situation. This is one of the best that we’ve been able to dig up from the vault. It’s a good one.

3:00 p.m. Little Feat Live at The Rainbow Theatre, London, August 2, 1977

Perhaps the most underrated band in rock music history. Little Feat was impossible to pidgeonhole, a brilliant combination of the blues, country, rhythm & blues, and good old fashioned rock n’roll. I saw them a few times before Lowell George’s untimely death, and they never, ever disappointed.

7:00 p.m. The Rolling Stones From The Vault, Live at San Jose Arena, April 19-20, 1999

Mick and the boys tear it up in San Jose. Another band that has stood the test of time, and is still tearing it up on stage, people.

This is a good time to tune us in. In fact, any day and at any time, it’s a good day to tune us in because we run 24/7 without interruption. What are you waiting for?

Tom Rush in The Spotlight, Mick Jagger & Jeff Beck Hang Out, and “Who’s Next,” Thursday, March 19, 2020

Good Morning, Ungovernables! Listening to #BecomeUngovernable Radio has been proven to be very good for your emotional well being. (Not really. I just made that shit up.) But you should tune us in anyway. We’ve got a good one today.

TOM-RUSH

Here’s your social distancing line-up!

11:00 a.m.     Album of the Week: Who’s Next, by The Who

There’s a very interesting story behind this album and where the material evolved from. You can learn more by clicking on the image to the right in the Album of the Week feature box.

2:00 p.m.       In the Spotlight: The Music of Tom Rush     NEW!

Tom Rush is one of those guys who could easily go unnoticed, but that would be a giant mistake. Tom Rush has influenced an entire generation of musicians, including Joni Mitchell, Jackson Browne and James Taylor. He is credited by Rolling Stone magazine with creating the era of the singer-songwriter. Tom Rush has been a quiet force in music for a very long time. I recently saw him in Portsmouth, New Hampshire (his birth place), and he was doing just fine at 79.

7:00 p.m.       Mick Jagger & Jeff Beck: Live at the Country Club, Receda

Tune us in, people. All you need is a computer or a phone.
