S03 E20: Better Late

I suppose we could try to pass it off as some meta statement, but the awkward silence you've been getting from us lately was both unexpected and unpleasant. Apologies.

But the good news is that we're back, and we've haven't learned a thing from the experience. Click here for the latest episode. Enjoy!
It was something like this, but Tara Tran was involved.

S03 E09: The Name Game

This week we explore the vast repertoire of songs named after people. And vast is no exaggeration; we could have easily just played the many songs (and covers thereof) entitled, "Gloria". So we hope you like the idea, because in all likelihood we'll be revisiting this trove of tunes again in the future. Enjoy!



Don't get the wrong idea. Slim Shady will not make an appearance.

PLAYLIST

Shirley Ellis - The Name Game
Dolly Parton - Jolene (the Grammy's performance by Jones, Mayer & Urban)
Bobby Darin - Mack the Knife
The Police - Roxanne
The Passions - Gloria
Them - Gloria
Laura Branigan - Gloria

Derek and the Dominos - Layla
The Jimmy Hendrix Experience - Hey Joe
