Five Sunday morning highlights:
WSIE 88.7 FM
- Driving-Everything But The Girl (In its acoustic and original studio versions, I can't imagine "Driving" wearing out its welcome. This is a heartwarming way to tell someone, "I can't wait to be with you.")
- This Here-Cannonball Adderley (A solid hook and an expansive showcase for each lead instrument to solo.)
KCLC 89.1 FM
- Glue Song-beabadoobee featuring Clairo (Endearing, concise, and a torch song for modern times.)
KCFV 89.5 FM
- Nothing 'Bout Me-Sting (I hadn't thought about this tune in ages and was glad to hear it again. Lyrically, it's an appealing ode to remaining mysterious. It could just as easily stand on its own, however, as a jazz piano instrumental.)
- Like The Weather-10,000 Maniacs (I contend that this is the group's best melody. As much as I like their issue-driven songs, there's a fun bounce to this tune that keeps me coming back. Also recommended: "Don't Talk," "Verdi Cries," and "Trouble Me.")
