Friday Night Music

Before their unfortunate veer into disco, the one form of music that is not truly music, the Bee Gees were a decent enough group, featuring harmonies on reasonably decent songs. So, despite their sins, for which I’m sure they have since repented (having pocketed the boodle therefrom) they deserve their .15 seconds of fame on […]

Friday Night Music-Everything’s Broken

I’ve put up Ben Sidran before, and ordinarily I wouldn’t deem him worthy of a repeat performance, but his is the best video version of this song that I can find, and for reasons that should be painfully obvious to anyone with their eyes open, this song seems quite timely right now.

The main players here are Paul McCartney, Joe Cocker, Eric Clapton, Brian Wilson, and Rod Stewart, but if you’re an aficionado, you’ll be able to […]

Some weeks it’s hard to find stuff for this feature. I try hard not to repeat myself, which is not easy because, along with the fact that I grow old and forgetful, I don’t keep track of what I’ve already put up. A simple database would have been useful, but it’s too late now. I […]
