WARREN ZEVON
Excitable Boy
1978 Canada pressing

The man, the myth, the legend gets last spin of the night.

Truly one of the greatest songwriters to ever walk the Earth, and a flawless album front to back.
It’s actually quite embarrassing.
There isn’t a song on this record that’s not great.
Not GOOD…
GREAT.

A true one of a kind talent the likes we’ll never see or hear again.

If you’ve never seen it, go on YouTube and watch his final appearance on Letterman.
Zevon was dying, and Dave gave him the WHOLE show that night.

Even on death’s door, he performed immaculately, and in the interview was funny, self-deprecating and fully the Warren we’ve always known.
It’s a remarkable and incredibly emotional watch.

Excitable boy, they all said.

He sure was.

Just the greatest.

The Who, “The Kids Are Alright” soundtrack, 1979

I encountered this film at the height of my Who mania, and it was EVERYTHING to me. It has grainy black-and-white footage of early gigs, TV appearances including the moment on the Smothers Brothers when Keith destroyed Pete’s hearing with explosives (not a metaphor), performances at The Rolling Stones' Rock and Roll Circus and at Woodstock, the video for “Success Story,” an outstanding deep cut of John’s (with the studio recording from “Who By Numbers," not included on the soundtrack album), their last appearance with Keith at Shephardson Studios, staged expressly for the film, and more. What it didn't have is the song “The Kids Are Alright.” (Seems they’ve added it onto the later DVD and Blu-ray releases behind additional closing credits, but I liked their little joke better.)

One of the best segments of the film/selections on the album, and itself somewhat in keeping with the “kid” theme, is their performance of Mose Allison’s “Young Man’s Blues.” The attitude of the original was already pure punk; in The Who’s hands, this jazz/blues piano piece becomes muscular, even menacing.

They fucking kill it.

🇬🇧 Marianne Faithfull "The Ballad of Lucy Jordan" – 1979

A haunting performance wrapped in stark instrumentation where fragile beauty meets raw emotion turning this ballad into an unforgettable late-70s classic. Better than the Dr. Hook original... 👍

DAVID BOWIE
Diamond Dogs
1980 Canada reissue

6:27 pm.
80 degrees outside (sorry, Celsius lovers).

Windows wide open, and Bowie blasting at full volume.

In the words of John Steinbeck…

“What good is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter and David Bowie to give it sweetness?”

That may not be a direct quote.
Please don’t fact check that.

Number The Brave - Wishbone Ash

Having been a major fan of the band's first three albums in my youth, I found Wishbone 4 and There's The Rub a little disappointing, and stopped buying their albums.
However, this album was listed at a price I couldn't resist, and I am pleasantly surprised. Their 11th studio album, and first without founding member, bassist Martin Turner, it has a more funky feel than the early records.

Anyone remember Annie Haslam and Renaissance? They were a part of my teen years listening to Album Oriented Radio (AOR) ... I would get excited when one of their songs would come on - which was rare because they tended to be 8 minute long art-rock numbers. I listen to her now and think how she paved the way for Kate Bush, Stevie Nicks, even Heart - but her music is largely forgotten. And I just discovered that she is still out there singing and making music ... at 77! #rememberlegends #nowplaying #listenup #music #musicworld #mixtape #randomplay #nowhearthis #simsongs #anniehaslam #renaissance #carpetofthesun #70smusic

Suddenly I remembered this song, spent some time to find it, was afraid that I might lose it forever and never hear it again, and here it is. So gentle and sincere. Tonight by Sibylle Baier.
