Longtown Sound 620 The Sunday Edition

James 5:13-16 (KJV)

13. Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms.

14. Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:

15. And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

16. Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

ROCKOLLECTIONS: BOSTON FROM BOSTON PT.2 END

We resume with Boston’s continuing legal squabbles, further holding up those snail’s pace albums.
Lots of time between them.
Then a combined instrumental and tune called Foreplay/Long Time…not the kind of song title you want with me around!
I had already said a number of things off-air, so Engineer Ken was hoping I had gotten it out of my system.
Guess I had one more, lol!
Graduation, you know.
As we close it out, Brad Delp committed suicide in a very strange way in 2007- charcoal burning poisoning.
And this as he was preparing for a summer tour, and also about to be married.
Even I wouldn’t go that far!
So our last song is the only one on that 1st Boston album he wrote.
As for my going with the flow, I sometimes do so on these one-artist or one-group shows, with just a broad idea of what I want to play.
But those theme shows I do are given a lot of thought and somewhat planned out.
However even within that framework, I go free-form.
Happy Boston and enjoy!

Mike

ROCKOLLECTIONS: BOSTON FROM BOSTON PT.1

We have a Classic Rock Band here, but will take them beyond those 3 or 4 songs played on commercial radio.
As I will discuss, this band Boston, with their eponymous debut album, caused me many a sleepless night, lol!
We will start off with one of those autobiographical songs, and a good one, that bands sometimes do.
A very bright guy, Tom Scholz was an MIT graduate in Engineering who put together his own recording studio.
When that wasn’t enough, he built his own equipment!
After putting the band together, Scholz was legendary for his slowness in putting out albums.
Between 1976 and 1997, Boston released 4 albums! And one of those was a Greatest Hits!
Pretty much, almost all of their best music was contained on that debut album- so I will play much from that.
It was great fun for me to hear these songs again, and I hope it works that way for you too.
Another half forthcoming.

Mike

ROCKOLLECTIONS: A LAST SHOW AT A RADIO STATION PT.2- THE GOODBYE

 

That is a picture of what is now an empty radio station.
Well, I am back with my Last Waltz there.
I had a vague idea of playing a few songs at the end for a goodbye.
But shifted gears quickly, and decided to use my final half hour as a farewell.
Today, I have only a slight bitterness toward the station.
To their everlasting credit, they always left me alone and never interfered with what music I played- never said I couldn’t play anything, never said I should play anything.
And that is so unbelievably rare nowadays.
They trusted Ken and I to not embarass them.
And we in turn had, and have, a healthy respect for the music and the listener.
This is what my last show THERE sounded like.
My last show EVER is off in the vague future.
I’ll have something different next week.
Thank you for indulging me in what was a very strange experience.
As I listen to it now from a distance, I made some odd, yet damn good song selections, lol!
What would YOU have played?

ROCKOLLECTIONS: A LAST SHOW AT A RADIO STATION PT.1

Alright, here’s one I was wondering when, or even if, I was going to put out there.
Aside from the over-the-air listeners of September 29th of 2009, no one has ever heard this.
This was my final show at the station I was at for just over 11 years.
Considering they were broadcasting for 32 years, I was there for more than a third of their history.
They decided to pull the plug, not even sell it, just let it go dark and silent.
Fortunately I was one of the people who knew I was doing a final show- others didn’t.
I had intended to do a third hour of Back To School (it was September after all), but quickly scrapped that idea.
I still had the remaining songs from the 2008 Tribute/Memorial I had never used.
That seemed like a better idea, since the station would be deceased at midnight the next day!
And I decided that I would choose a few of the more “out there” songs by some of those late artists. I wanted to be ANNOYING!
What could they do, fire me, lol?
I also brought in a few songs that I thought would say in music what I might not be able to say properly as a goodbye.
I thought I would choose one or two and be gone.
Well, that turned out to be the entire second half of the show!
But this is the first half, and although I made a number of references to it probably being our final show (there was so much confusion I wasn’t even really certain), I tried to do things as normally and professionally as I could.
I tried to be professional in both halves of the show actually, and in my opinion succeeded.
But you are always the final jury about things like that.
And the next episode will be very different from anything I have ever done.
First things first though…

Mike

Strikers Charles Laquidara & Matt Siegel celebrating a victory over
Hemisphire Broadcasting in 1979.

We have a long wait for this Goodbye series to end.  Finding more material on tape and I would also want to thank Charles Laquidara for giving me permission to use his ”Back To The Future Show” from April 1986. I been editing the segments for this show and future shows to add along with The Goodbye to WBCN Special.  I’m predicting this series will take us all to the month of August 2010. The time of the year where we here in New England lost WBCN 104.1 a year. Let’s see what happens. I personally lost the Real WBCN during the year of 1991.

Psalm 10
1. Why, O Lord, do you stand afar off? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?
2. In arrogance the wicked hotly pursue the poor; let them be caught in the schemes that they have devised.
3. For the wicked boasts of the desires of his soul, and the one greedy for gain curses and renounces the Lord.
4. In the pride of his face the wicked does not seek him; all his thoughts are, “There is no God.”
5. His ways prosper at all times; your judgments are on high, out of his sight; as for all his foes, he puffs at them.
6. He says in his heart, “I shall not be moved; throughout all generations I shall not meet adversity.”
7. His mouth is filled with cursing and deceit and oppression; under his tongue are mischief and iniquity.
8. He sits in ambush in the villages; in hiding places he murders the innocent. His eyes stealthily watch for the helpless;
9. he lurks in ambush like a lion in his thicket; he lurks that he may seize the poor; he seizes the poor when he draws him into his net.
10. The helpless are crushed, sink down, and fall by his might.
11. He says in his heart, “God has forgotten, he has hidden his face, he will never see it.”

ROCKOLLECTIONS: AMBOY DUKES PT.2 & MLK DAY!

Back with some more of the Amboy Dukes, Ted Nugent’s old group- and it WAS Ted’s group.
He had to keep bailing the members out of jail, booked their concerts, took care of the finances, drove their truck, made hotel reservations, etc.- all while fighting with them!
I am going to play you a hippie classic- a terrific song, complete with sitar, with just the right title for that period, Psalm Of Aftermath.
Feeling like a babysitter, Ted left the group and came back with a great solo album.
I have the band doing a great old Chuck Berry chestnut, complete with a series of those false endings groups sometimes do.
Today, Ted Nugent is into so many things I couldn’t list them all.
He even has an internet column I enjoy.
So I thought I’d play something solo by him you might know.
Finally, in honor of Monday being Martin Luther King Jr. Day, that will be duly noted.
Talk about dreams…!

ROCKOLLECTIONS: AMBOY DUKES PT.1

This is an interesting show, for one thing this first half is entirely vinyl records.
Most of the 2nd half will be also.
After last week’s Bread, this time I’ll be playing the Amboy Dukes, Ted Nugent’s old group.
This is some VERY 60’s music!
They took their name from a novel about gang members.
They began in Chicago, and moved to Detroit where Nugent is from.
This chapter contains my favorite version of the song Baby Please Don’t Go, a tune that has been done by countless groups.
That Ted Nugent can PLAY some guitar!
The highlight for me is that during this episode I hit the extender for the microphone- not the microphone itself.
It is a sort of crossed rack with a large spring, that is what I hit and I hit it HARD!
Sounded like a Chinese gong and shocked the hell out of me, lol!
Listen for it!
More Dukes coming in Part Two.

ROCKOLLECTIONS: A TASTE OF BREAD PT.2 END

Here is the other slice of Bread, and we have ourselves…never mind!
I will open this final half with a song you may have always regarded as a pretty love song.
But it is not.
David Gates wrote it after the death of his father, and knowing that gives the song an entirely different meaning.
And you may never be able to listen to it the same way again.
We have the usual story of the falling out- this time Gates and James Griffin- and then the dissolution of the band.
However, while they were together they put out some amazing music.
Why they even did a mandatory-for-the-time Protest song!
Which I will play for you.
This is a curious chapter, as it has THREE different endings!
Pick a winner if you can.

ROCKOLLECTIONS: A TASTE OF BREAD PT.1

Oh man, here’s an old show I found from 2005.
I remember it was the first show after New Year’s, and I wanted to give those throbbing heads and hangovers a break.
So I picked a sort of mellow group to do, Bread.
But make no mistake- this is well-crafted, melodic music that I like a lot.
They were very, very good at what they did!
There are vinyl songs to be heard in here.
And in putting the show together I discovered a song called Aubrey that has become one of my favorites by this band.
So join me as I sounded 5 years ago…any difference?
Tell you one thing, I sure as hell couldn’t read this day, lol!
There is a Part Two to follow.

RockRoll360 #074 - Goodbye to WBCN (Part. 18)

 

Jim Parry @ WBCN Studios

Continuing with The Goodbye to WBCN final 4 days of Broadcast.
Don’t forget segments with this symbol  ( # ) are bonus additions
and is not from the original 4 day broadcast.

One night in April of 1979,  Governor Edward King of Massachusetts launch the bill on raising the drinking age from 18 back up to 20. This  became a special night in Massachusetts and last call for thousands of  working youth & college students until they reach the age of 21 to drink again (Legally).  This is a segment of a broadcast from WBCN that night with Jim Parry at the mic, I had in my personal collection on cassette.  The music for the show which starts  at the 6:50 mark with the Kingston Trio through Queen is the music broadcast that night, but I re-recorded the tracks from my personal collection due to capturing a better sound from analog to digital sound quality. Also a special anouncement from Charlie Kendell at WBCN back in 1979.

Hope you enjoy this special edition of Goodbye To WBCN .

Happy 2010 New Year Everybody and Welcome to my first show of 2010.
Here on The Jackal ( Pt. 2 ) I have great tunes from Toots & The Maytals,
Buddy Miles with Jimi Hendrix and a rare song by Marc Cohn & Jackson Browne together.  

So enjoy by either playing straight from the site or downloading into your I-Pods.
You can also burn each of this shows on to a disc. With each show averaging about 30 to 50 minutes you can fit about 8 to 10 shows on one disc in the MP3 format.  So enjoy and please share with your fellow E-mailers or FB friends.
