Song of the Day #2,413: ‘Get Lucky’ – Jess Greenberg
Song of the Day #2,412: ‘Under the Bridge’ – Jess Greenberg
As I suggested last week, I’ve been woefully behind in my blogging lately. Posting my newest SOTD 15 minutes before midnight is not viable.
So to buy myself a little breathing room, I’m dedicating this week to the work of Jess Greenberg, presented without further comment.
Let’s give this talented young woman the recognition she so richly deserves.
Song of the Day #2,411: ‘Let’s Just Get Naked’ – Joan Osborne
This blog often finds new ways to make me feel old.
I remember buying Joan Osborne’s debut album, Relish, when it came out and loving its slow-jam dirty folk music vibe. Songs such as ‘St. Teresa’ and ‘Pensacola’ are among my favorites of the 90s.
Then it pops up as a Random Weekend selection today and I realize that this album came out 20 years ago. 20 years!
Song of the Day #2,410: ‘Have You Seen My Baby?’ – Randy Newman
Of all the great albums in my music collection, Randy Newman’s 12 Songs is one of the most unassuming.
The album has no grand vision. It is simply, as the title suggests, a collection of 12 songs. The instrumentation is pretty bare-bones. Several of these songs had been recorded previously by other artists (today’s SOTD, for example, was released as a Fats Domino track before Newman offered up his own version).
