This week's #TuneTuesday theme is #AnimalCalls. Howlin' Wolf is a rather obvious choice - his first record was one of the greatest he ever did:

Maybe the best episode to start with if a podcast with the title "A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs" appeals to you. #SamPhillips, #SunRecords and #Memphis. But then go back immediately and listen to episode 1. It's just all so good. #500Songs

CW: "Holding on to the earth" - Sam Phillips
An ecological song from 1988.
T-Bone Burnett's wife turned her back on Christian music, to channel her secular singer-songwriter talent. It's a single from "The Indescribable Wow", which reminds me of late-era Beatles psychedelia, or the work of Bourgeois Tagg.

The word is "Earth"
(I have two, so you get two.)#SamPhillips, “Holding On To The Earth” from album “The Indescribable Wow”
After ditching contemporary Christian music in favor of a secular, more pop approach, and more than a decade before providing the score for the Gilmore Girls TV series, Sam Phillips had a radio hit.
To distance herself from her CCM past, Leslie Phillips adopted her nickname Sam, and issued “The Indescribable Wow” as Sam Phillips’ debut album. Her voice, almost twee but with a smoky edge that you just know will age like Marianne Faithfull fine wine, works perfectly in the 60s psychedelic setting of “Holding On To The Earth.” I’m not sure how widely it was played on commercial radio outside of #Boston, but here it was a favorite on alternative-leaning #wfnx (RIP).

I'm listening to the album Fan Dance by #SamPhillips (2001). It's one of my favorite sounding recordings. I have a lot of favorite sounding recordings. Do you know this one? It's real good.
