radio boise playlist for week of 08/20/07

This show wandered briefly through some jazz (including a brief farewell to the legendary
Max Roach), some old R&B, and some outlaw C&W before settling into it's main theme:

Songs that S.P.E.L.L. out their T.I.T.L.E.S.

I've completely swiped this week's theme from one of my old radio D.J. pals at K.A.L.X. in Berkeley, the lovely Jesse Luscious.

Jesse recently polled other KALX DJ's to pool their vast musical knowledge for candidates for such a theme show.
(In my defense, I made a few of the contributions to that list, O.K.?)

It was fun putting it all together. Hope you E.N.J.O.Y.E.D.

Questions, comments or suggestions for future shows are all welcome!

T.H.A.N.K.S. !!

I'm doubtful that anyone out there has more fun than me when I'm programming another show.

I get to indulge my whims, pick the music that moves me at the moment, and let it fall together in a manner that suits my tastes.

The result couldn't possibly suit everyone, but I follow my own happiness confident that the show will strike the right people the right way.

It's a great privilege, and I thank you for being involved in the process.

And as always: Any questions, comments about the music - - just click on the 'email me' link.

Thanks again, thanks!

radio boise playlist for week of 07/23/07

It was just another meandering flight from one point to another, with no particular destination in mind.

Life is grand, life is large, and filling it with music only makes it more so, sez I.

It feels good, so do it.

(And I'm happy to help if I can)

Music may also manage to be a fitting reminder, as well, when your life decides to get in your face and mar your mood.

The music flows, the music changes, just like life.

Is there a question about the music?

Hmmm. Sometimes I just get to feelin' ornery, I guess.

Fulla piss 'n' vinegar. Ready to raise a ruckus, and ready to throw some wild curve balls and see how they fly.

Loud music, difficult music, troubled music, and soft and pretty music that shouldn't quite fit in.

Beautiful Noise. What fun.

The notes and the songs and the moods and ideas tumble and change and flow.

You jump into that stream wherever you may and sail along for the ride as long as you do, your attention drifting from the music to your own activity and back again, as one informs the other. Maybe occasionally asking, 'How did we get from there to here?'

Hope it was a pleasant trip.
