Today’s Jams—The Kinks

Here’s Cody’s take:

Friday’s Jams come from The Kinks. Almost got to see Ray Davies in Salzburg once, but I literally couldn’t afford the $35 ticket at the time. Went to see a Mozart concerto for free at a church instead.

1.  Here Comes Yet Another Day

2.  Maximum Consumption

3.  (Wish I Could Fly Like) Superman (Ever listen to KISS’ I Was Made For Lovin’ You? Which song’s the original and which one’s the rip off? Same riff.)

4.  Low Budget

5.  20th Century Man

6.  Everybody’s a Star (Starmaker)

It’s Rebecca’s last day before her weeklong trip to Aruba. Tracy Byrnes will be filling in for the week.

Start your New Year’s celebrating early—come to the Bull and Bear at 5:00pm and have a pre-New Year’s cocktail. We also have a terrific show lined up for New Year’s Eve so make sure you tune in. If you can’t make it in person you can catch Happy Hour at 5:00 and 11:00pm on channel 43.

Cody has chosen Jimi Hendrix for Today’s Jams. Here’s his take:

Today’s jams come from the most inventive and influential guitarist of all time. You know that’s Jimi without me telling you, yes?

1.  Day Tripper (sweet cover by The Jimi Hendrix Experience on BBC)

2.  Have You Ever Been (To Electric Ladyland)?

3.  Sunshine of Your Love (another sweet cover from the BBC Sessions)

4.  Come On, Pt 1

5.  Still Raining, Still Dreaming

6.  Voodoo Child (Slight Return…this one from the BBC Sessions too, since the original is overplayed on the radio)

For those of you who are still on holiday break—you can catch the show at 5:00pm on channel 43. If that’s too early, the show is replayed at 11:00pm on the same channel.

Today Jam’s are from Bruce Springsteen. Here’s what Cody has to say:

His rough and leave-no-prisoners attack of the pretty songs he writes is pretty much the epitome of rock n roll.

1.  Thunder Road

2.  Night

3.  She’s the One

4.  Blinded By the Light (the lesser known original version of the Manfred Mann’s Earth Band hit)

5.  Does the Bus Stop at 82nd Street?

6.  It’s Hard to Be a Saint in the City

Cody has chosen Elvis for Today’s Jams. Here’s his take:

You can tell how homesick I’ve been by the repeated use of music themes from my youth in this past week. My dad, like most boomers, was a huge fan of Elvis and my brother and I played his records raw. I’m heading home tonight to see my family and hometown friends.

1.  Rip It Up

2.  Long Tail Sally

3.  Paralyzed

4.  Ready Teddy

5.  Money Honey

6.  My Baby Left Me (mine left me too. Gotta love the Elvis.)

The greatest 80’s hair metal band from Germany ever…and the favorite band of my high school basketball mentor and longtime idol, Kirk Ryan.

1.  Can’t Live Without You (why hasn’t someone made a killer rap song out of this songs riffs yet???)

2.  No One Like You

3.  Bad Boys Running Wild

4.  Big City Nights

5.  Can’t Get Enough

6.  Rock You Like a Hurricane

Six rockin jams from another old school country outlaw.

I don’t have a CD of this unfortunately, btw…Growing up in a town where we received only one radio station…an AM Country Western…I can’t bring myself to buy these albums since I know the songs so damn well over my childhood.
