George Harrison – "Beware Of Darkness" Jun 15, 2021

Show notes

George Harrison emerged from the rubble of The Beatles breakup with all cylinders firing. After years of working in John & Paul's shadow, George had amassed a stockpile of great songs. It all burst out in 1970 on his triple-album set, All Things Must Pass. One of the standout tracks was "Beware Of Darkness", a warning to everyone (including himself) to be wary of corrupting influences. Featuring an all-star band, wall-of-sound production, and the introduction of George's slide guitar playing, which would define his sound for the rest of his career. Let's listen to the song many consider George's masterpiece.

Show notes

Sugar Pie DeSanto (born Peylia Marsema Balinton) was a ton of dynamite in a tiny 4' 11" frame... and still is, at the time of this recording. Let's have a listen to this super-fun classic track, recorded with the great Etta James in 1966.

The Ohio Players - "Fire" Mar 15, 2021

Show notes

The Ohio Players paid their dues for 15 years before their first #1 Top 100 hit, but by then, they were on fire (pun intended). Built on an incessant groove that won't quit, they brought heavy funk to the top of the pop charts. On this episode, we take a look at all the elements that make up this funky classic.

The Language Of Rock Mar 01, 2021

Show notes

What's the difference between a "riff" and a "lick"? Between "reverb" and "slapback echo"? We try not to get too technical on this podcast, but occasionally some listeners get stumped by some of the terminology. So for our 75th episode, I thought I'd explain some of the terms we use on this show-- and why it's necessary to have this "language" to begin with. (Because there's no sheet music notation for "fuzz tone".)

NOTE: This episode was originally released on March 1, 2021. I've revised the show to now include video, which should (hopefully) make the episode more useful. The audio has remained the same as the original.

DISCLOSURE: Many of the images in this video were created using AI. But ALL the audio, including narration & music clips, are not AI-generated. The voiceover was recorded by me, and the audio clips were taken from the original sources. I believe it should be disclosed whenever AI content is used.

Something Happens - "Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello (Petrol)" Feb 15, 2021

Show notes

Every once in a while you hear a song by a band you've never heard of and it knocks you out. This was one of those songs for me. A band from Ireland comes out of nowhere (as far as the USA is concerned), gets some radio play with a great song, and then is largely forgotten here. Same ol' story. Should'a been a big hit, if ya ask me. But what do I know? Listen to this track along with me and see if you love it as much as I do.
