ROCKOLLECTIONS: ODDS AND ENDS VOL.1- PT.2

Finishing up with our first Odds & Ends, after a few songs for Heather, I’ll open with one for Paul should he decide to get married again, by a Dutch group called Smyle that had the Beatle sound down pat- especially the John Lennon voice.
I have never wanted Rockollections to be labeled an Oldies show, or a Classic Rock one.
Especially in the Theme shows, if I play an old record, I am using it in a contemporary way.
Besides, some of the older music I play was NEVER played on the radio at all- so throw the Classic tag away.
I just play what I consider the best or most interesting songs I can think of, irregardless of when it was made!
And I have nothing against new music- except maybe that most of it sucks, lol!
I wanna play 3 new songs for you though.
One each by the G-Men, Amer Diab and Mark Wayne Glasmire (and I had fun with his triple name, lol!).
Give a listen and see what you think.
They were the ones I chose that day, and there are more than 3 new songs I enjoy- just want to make that clear to any folks that think I am not open-minded.
The song by Glasmire is about a relationship that has a chance at getting back together.
Made me think of a song by the Del Fuegos, but with less of a chance at reconciliation in it.
After the new stuff, I must say it IS still fun to play the old ones, and I will continue to do so!
So I will end with first, a Chiffons number you should know- but without any MUSIC!
And lastly, Brian Wilson with his daughters, singing a song that tells me I should do these Odds & Ends more often.
Enjoy!

Mike
