ROCKOLLECTIONS: CALLING ALL ANGELS PT.1

DEDICATED TO THE REPOSE OF THE SOUL OF A PAST GIRLFRIEND

October 19th would be my ex-girlfriend Angel’s birthday.
Unfortunately she will not get to see it.
However, I will celebrate it with a musical exploration of Rock & Roll Angel songs (with a few diversions into other areas, including the movies).
This will not be a wake, unless you count it as an Irish one, and she was most definitely Irish with the name Murphy.
And one helluva beautiful, fun, sexy, smart and tough lady. Don’t know what she saw in me for so long!
We will be all over the place for this and the next 3 chapters- as I am no respecter of decades or genres.
I’ll tell you a little about her, and quickly get myself in trouble by playing 2 songs from the SAME album that would have gotten my butt kicked by her, lol!
You should know the songs, and if you care, they are from a grand old vinyl album.
In putting this Theme Show Series together, going in I thought I would find many more songs about Angel’s wings than I did.
After all, they have them. We don’t.
But far and away, there are more songs about Angel eyes. A surprising number of them!
I’ll play just a few of the many I thought of and found, (those time restraints again!).
So many things went wrong during the recording of these shows, I was beginning to think it was a message from above, lol!
But we persevered, and you will decide how well and entertaining the result was.
I invite you to join me in the celebration of a life- and the Archangels, Cherubim and Seraphim.
The first order of business will be Calling All Angels!
