1. BEATLES ON ROOTS-- This past Sunday, Bob Stroud's Rock and Roll Roots Show was on the six Beatles albums (the Beatles are my second-favorite group) they released in 1964. The lads were definitely busy with: Meet the Beatles, Introducing the Beatles, Second Album, A Hard day's Night, Something New and Beatles '65.
Stroud played one side of each as well as songs on the charts back then, including three written by Lennon-McCartney for Peter and Gordon: ""A World Without Love, "I Don't Want to see You Again" and "Nobody I Know."
2 JOHN FOGERTY-- My all-time favorite band is Creedence Clearwater Revival, and, of course, John Fogerty. I enjoyed seeing him this past Friday on ACM's Girls Night Out" show where they honored about eight female performers.
John hosted the part with Naomi and Wynona Judd and did a great job on their "Rockin' with the Rhythm of the Rain" and was joined by Wynona on his "Proud Mary." Wynonah sure brought back memories of the great job Tina Turner did on it back in the early 70s.
3. THE DRIVE'S A TO Z'S BACK-- Starting Thursday, the Drive, 97.1 FM in Chicago will once again unleash their A to Z upon us. That means over 2,000 songs played alphabetically according to title straight through, 24-hours-a-day until they run out of them sometime Sunday.
So long Beach Music, Hello A to Z. However, much of the time, we'll be out of the listening area and not by a 'puter.
I'll be listening Until Out of Range. --RoadDog
STUPID QUESTION: Why is a person who handles money called a broker?
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
