Man am I sick. I finally got the flu on Friday, and stayed home (mostly slept – no reading or watching movies for me). I felt a little better yesterday, but had a lousy night, barely sleeping, and am feeling worse this morning than I had on Friday – not a good sign. Get better soon, me.
Chuck Berry died yesterday – another shock, asked my wife? No, I said, he was very, very old. 90, my wife said. Yes, I said, sometimes guys are just very old. He was one of the pioneers of rock ‘n’ roll, and what is funny is that he was a contemporary of my parents – they were not alike at all. There’ll be some Chuck played over the next few weeks, but more and more he has become forgotten by many. He is oldies – not sure where Billy Joel fits in with the oldies format.
Today we have little that represents Chuck Berry’s rock ‘n’ roll on today’s podcast. Still., there’s great music from Lush, Joe Jackson, Style Council, Roxy Music, the Chambers Brothers, the Undisputed Truth, the O’Jays, Kadhja Bonet, Thundercat, Mr Twin Sister, Marianne Faithful, Thomas Dolby, and Badfinger.
