This could have been called, "Progressive Pie UK, Norway & some Belgium Sprinkled In", but I didn't. Take a big bite of this Lemon Meringue pie now, please. For Brits, is this a 'pudding', too?

I picked the 'Best of' songs featured in Shows 101-150. This is also Show #250. Please "Follow" this podcast. That helps keep my psyche purring.

Who gets to call all of this folk? Uh, me. This is a lovely set of 'folk-like' tunes. I do look up to see how they are categorized but they lie too. At any rate, please listen to this great set of songs.

A word Brits seem to like is 'knackered'. It is a favorite to describe old, out-dated, beat-up things. These tunes are NOT knackered. I present songs from the British Empire for this set.

Maybe it's a little too obvious. It will be 'sun' or a derivative in song title and rarely just in a lyric. It's time to let that giant orb in the sky shine.

Swill, huh? Any meaning of the word is NOT pleasant. But, this is Swell Swill. These are treats leftover that are still tasteful. Take a big slug of the Swell Swill.

This is a great chance to hear Country Rock selections with a wide variety of artists. The Chicago connection between Wilco and Son Volt are represented here. I believe the song by Slobberbone, "Gimme Back My Dog", you'll either love or hate.

Please note the show image is Bach with an electric guitar strapped to his shoulder. Please remember this quote, "if it's not baroque, don't fix it". The real 'heyday' for Baroque Pop was 1966-1969. Artists were experimenting with orchestral instrumentation such as strings, horns, etc. The other instrumentation used for these recordings includes harpsichord, pump organ & Mellotron. These instruments were added to a basic rock/pop sound. You'll hear a certain theme to this set of songs, some whimsy but all pretty friendly to the EARS.
