TT 12 July 2013: Soul and Blues

TT 16 August 2013: 1968

Dear Rock n Rollers, In 1968 Richard Nixon was elected US President, the Tet Offensive was a turning point in the Viet Nam War and young people around the world were 'Turning on, tuning in and dropping out' in the words of Timothy Leary. This is also the year featured in this radio show. Remember 'Love is Blue' by Paul Mauriat? Feeling Alright by Traffic? Magic Carpet Ride by Steppenwolf?Revolution by the Beatles? I also included some songs which received less airplay in 1968, like Last Hopes' Gone from Paul Butterfield, or Way Behind the Sun from Pentangle. Enjoy!

TT 05 June 2013: What'd I Say?

Dear Rock 'n' Rollers,

What would I say? How about Ray Charles....listen to this great opening song from recorded during an improvisation one night in 1959. I then let my mind wander over the 60s and 70's and chose some accompanying tunes from the Hollies, The Who, Stones, Velvet Underground and Hendrix.... Enjoy!

TT 21 June 2013: See See Rider

I ran across a 1960 recording by Ray Charles of the old blues classic See See Rider, which also happens to be one of my favorite songs recorded by the Grateful Dead....check out these great tracks along with Fortunate Son by Credence, Hello Friends by Lamb (Filmore Concert) and Joan Baez's Guantanamera. Enjoy!

TT 07.06.13: Blues and Soul

Dear Rock n Rollers,

Did Blues morph into Soul in the 1950s? I hope to answer this question with this edition of Transatlantic Tunes, featuring some great Blues or rather Soul Artists like Wilson Pickett, Bill Withers, Ray Charles, Sly and the Family Stone and BB King.....Enjoy!

TT 31 May 2013: Aretha

Dear Rock n Rollers,

Lou Rawl's performance at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967 blew away the trendy California crowd at the time. This somehow brought me to Aretha Franklin, who is delightfully featured in this set. Enjoy the Queen of Soul along with friends, Nina Simon, Otis Redding, Barbeque Bob, The Falcons, and many more!

TT 10 May 2013: The Eighties

Dear Rock n Rollers,

The Eighties....ok, maybe they don't have the gravitas of the 60's nor the verve of the 70's, but these tunes are FUN! ....Devo, Re-flex, Cars and Bananarama....Enjoy!
