Monday Rolls Around Again With The Beatles, Toots & The Maytals, and Some ‘Live’ Joni Mitchell Later On, May 23, 2022

Good Morning, Musicologists! We’ve got a pretty eclectic bit of programming for you today as we launch headlong into another work week. We’re guaranteeing that we get you through to the weekend in style!

We’ve got Reggae legends Toots & The Maytals In the Spotlight this afternoon.

Here’s your Monday, Monday lineup:

11:00 a.m. The Beatles: B is for B-Sides NEW!

Today we open it up with one of our ‘house bands’ and a brand new playlist. This time, it’s the Beatles’ B-sides. We even throw in our four favorite B-sides from the Fab Four as solo artists at the very end of the playlist, so don’t forget to tune this one in!

3:00 p.m. In The Spotlight: The Music of Toots & The Maytals

Toots & The Maytals were formed in the early 1960s and were known under that name from 1972 to 2020. They are one of the best-known ska and rocksteady vocal groups, and were instrumental, along with Bob Marley & The Wailers, in building the worldwide popularity of Reggae music.

7:00 p.m. Joni Mitchell Live at The Teatro Tenda di Lampugnano, Milan, Italy, May 9, 1983

Joni Mitchell appeared at the Teatro Tenda as part of her 1983 Refuge World Tour. Mitchell played guitar, dulcimer, and piano on the tour and was supported by some of the finest musicians on the planet, including Russell Ferrante on keyboards, Michael Landau on guitars, Larry Klein on bass, and Vinnie Colaiuta on drums.

Come on, folks. It’s Monday. If you’re lucky enough to be able to close your office door and give yourself a little background music while you’re working, this is the place to be. If you work at home, even better.

Friday. It’s Finally Here and We Have Some Toots & The Maytals, Trifectas In The Afternoon, and The Final Segment on Our Beatles Feature Later, November 12, 2021

Good Morning, Reggae-ologists! We’re here in The Mermaid Lounge and we’re breaking out some great Reggae today to start off our musical programming. We’ve also got a series of new Trifectas debuting this afternoon!

We’ve got some Toots & The Maytals for you this morning!

Here’s Friday’s line-up:

11:00 a.m. In The Spotlight: Toots & The Maytals

The Maytals were formed in the early 60s in Jamaica, and became one of the best known ska and rocksteady vocal groups, playing a key role in popularizing the Reggae sound. We put them here In the Spotlight today.

Trifecta Afternoon NEW!

We’ve got a set of four brand new Trifectas to help get you through the afternoon:

2:00 p.m. Fats Domino

3:00 p.m. Badfinger

4:00 p.m. Paul Revere & The Raiders

5:00 p.m. Jimi Hendrix

7:00 p.m. The Beatles: The Endgame

You know, I look forward to Peter Jackson’s Beatle documentary coming up this month. Did the Beatles fight? They did. All bands fight. They’re like a family. But if the Beatles hated each other they way it was played up in the media, they would not have been able to remain as great as they were to the bitter end. Later on, they worked out their issues. It was real life under a media microscope.

Tune us in, folks. We’re here for you 24/7 completely free-of-charge every single day. We don’t ask for your personal info or a credit card, and we do not play commercials. Ever.

Neil Young in The Spotlight, Bob Dylan Live at Budokan, and We Pay Respects to Toots Hibbert on Monday, September 14, 2020

Good Morning, Ungovernable Music Lovers! We’ve got three legends on tap today. Today, we pay respects to Reggae legend Toots Hibbert, who left this earth over the weekend.

Toots Hibbert, Reggae pioneer and leader of The Maytals

Here’s your line-up for Monday:

1:00 p.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of Neil Young

Whether as a soloist or as part of a greater whole (CSNY, The Buffalo Springfield), Neil Young is one of the premier singer-songwriters of all time. Today he’s in the spotlight.

4:00 p.m. Bob Dylan Live at Budokan, February 28 and March 1, 1978

Although recorded during his 1978 world tour, the album was not released until 1979, after at least one counterfeit made its way to market and several imports were created.

7:00 p.m. In the Spotlight: Toots & The Maytals NEW!

Toots & The Maytals are in the general rotation, but today we feature them in The Spotlight. Reggae legend Toots Hibbert passed away this past Saturday in Kingston, Jamaica at the age of 77, and we aim to give him and his band their due.

Tune us in. We have no idea what you are waiting for but, hey, we’ve got time.
