Recommended tunes heard today:
KOPN (Columbia, MO)
- Animosity-The Warning (Need to vent? Maybe work off some rage? These ferocious vocals and wall-of-sound, jump-out-of-the-speakers guitar should help you. Cruiserweight's "Slack" would sound right to me before this.)
KVMR (Nevada City, CA)
- Leave You With A Smile-Willie Nelson (A sincere way of conveying that you still think the world of your beloved and regret the mistakes you've made. If you can't look back at your life and convey these sentiments at age 89, then when can you?)
WBGO (Newark, NJ)
- The Rain-Melody Gardot (Appropriately melancholy piano and vocals.)
- Embraceable You-Joe Lovano (Warm ballroom elegance, thanks to Lovano's performance on saxophone and big band-style accompaniment.)
- At Last-The 3 Sounds (An excellent instrumental rendering of a standard many listeners know in its Etta James vocal incarnation. Piano, bass, and drums suit this tune well.)
