Hey Ears Try This Out

I present music from 1965 (some digressions) to the current time including Rock, Progressive, Psychedelic, Folk, Hard Rock, Country Rock and anything else I feel like playing from my personal collection. All categories decided by me. It will include short descriptions between tracks addressing artist, song title, album, origin and year. I promise you will hear artists that you’ve NEVER heard before. Do you have to know/recognize the music to enjoy it? GOD, I hope not. I will challenge you, but with the best of intentions. I will NOT play anything I wouldn’t listen to. Trust me EARS. Each show is about 1 hour in length (rare digressions).

101st Show

Friday May 10, 2024

Friday May 10, 2024

This continues the highlights of the first 99 shows. I couldn't fit them on one show, so here we go. Thanks to all the listeners. If you didn't listen, this effort would be long gone.  [NOTE: I screwed up. I introduced 'She's a Rainbow' but played 'Ruby Tuesday'. Please forgive me]

100th Show Extravaganza

Monday May 06, 2024

Monday May 06, 2024

This celebrates my 100th podcast. I take highlights from the last 99 shows. Many of the selections include input via comments from my listeners. The other tunes are just ones I wanted to play again. That means I broke my rule of only playing any song once...deal with it. That means I also had to re-rip these tunes since I delete them once played. Now they'll be deleted a second time. One more show of this type, next.

Psychedelic Garage cuatro

Thursday May 02, 2024

This is the fourth installment of this wonderful category. As always, there will be some you know and many you won't. The consistent thread is they all fit seamlessly together. If you like the style, you'll like the result. This is show #99!

British/UK Folk Vol. 2

Monday Apr 29, 2024

Monday Apr 29, 2024

Whimsical fodder with a bend towards the late 60's/early 70's. Revisit that time frame with a few newer songs. John Martyn, Dr Strangley Strange, Donovan, Richard Thompson, Dando Shaft, etc.

Power Pop III

Wednesday Apr 24, 2024

Wednesday Apr 24, 2024

This is a great assortment of performers of Power Pop. You'll recognize many of these artists. Also, there will many you've never heard of. Therein lies the challenge.

Vault Worthy

Monday Apr 22, 2024

Monday Apr 22, 2024

FOR MATURE AUDIENCES   These tracks were kept in the vault to release now for your approval. If you have heard of over 3 of these artists, you are doing very well. Some of these artists I just discovered recently. That means their vault time was minimal.

8-track HEAVEN 1969-70

Saturday Apr 20, 2024

Saturday Apr 20, 2024

This is the second installment but 2 years earlier (the last show was 1971-72). Slam an 8-track cartridge in the player and Let's Go

Progressive Pudding

Wednesday Apr 17, 2024

Wednesday Apr 17, 2024

Take a good size spoonful please. If we were Brits, 'pudding' means any dessert. Since this is the US, pudding is something you eat with a spoon (as pictured). The length of time between releases is: 1969 to 2023 (a span of 54 years). The countries represented are: Sweden, Norway, Canada, US, UK, France and Iceland, If you know over 3 artists, you are doing very well. Thanks again to Andy Thompson for the inspiration!

Croakers

Sunday Apr 14, 2024

Sunday Apr 14, 2024

This is not meant to be disingenuous. It is not cutting down their voice or accomplishments. I could have called the show "Unique Voices", but a frog is easier to find a picture of. Croak on...

Wednesday Apr 10, 2024

This a GREAT headphone listen. Is it for everyone? Probably not. Time period? Mostly 2007 to 2012 with some digressions. I love the multiple acoustic instrumentation that were used during these recordings. Countries represented: US, UK, Sweden, Netherlands, Germany, and France. One word to describe: gorgeous. Thanks to Andy Thompson for the inspiration!
