Sunday morning standouts:
WSIE 88.7 FM
- Everybody Wants To Rule The World-Fattburger (I've always been indifferent to the original Tears For Fears version of this, but hearing this jazz guitar-led incarnation made me appreciate the melody more.)
- Fancy Footwork-Ragan Whiteside (A sunny, uptempo flute number, released in August.)
KCLC 89.1 FM
- Spine Oil-Samia (This rhythmically appealing April release's forthright lyrics show that the protagonist is more strong-willed than people realize.)
KSHE 94.7 FM
- Home Again-Batdorf & Rodney (Upbeat lyrics, invigorating guitar, and vocal harmonies reminiscent of Crosby, Stills & Nash; if that's not a musical hat trick, what is? Also recommended: "Oh My Surprise.")
K297BI 107.3 FM, a.k.a. WFUN-HD2
- J.S. Bach: The Well-Tempered Clavier, Prelude & Fugue in C major, BWV846 (Angela Hewitt, piano) (A warm, nimble interpretation of one of the most familiar, accessible Baroque pieces.)
