Through the Garage Door

Print is dead! Long live radio! We play music based on literature. Read between the lines with Iron Maiden, The Beatles, Panic! at the Disco, Led Zeppelin, Leonard Nimoy (ugh!), Art Garfunkel and Rush!

Our radio activity this week is about music about the radio, being played on the radio! Like a snake swallowing its tail. Get radioactive with Van Morrison, Jethro Tull, Lindy Vopnfjord, The Ramones, Queen, The Beach Boys, Reunion and Harry Chapin!

Songs from albums by a single artist that are full of covers of the songs of others. But not by cover bands. Artists that usually make their own music, but have decided to take a break from song writing and who still need to make a contractural obligation album to keep the record label happy. Take a break with Metallica, Rickie Lee Jones, David Bowie, Brian Owens, Richard Cheese, John Lennon, Weezer, Rush, Three Dog Night and The Beatles!

Music from an album with multiple artists covering the music of one artist. Sort of the musical equivalent of "I'll throw you a birthday party if you throw me one someday in the future." Pay tribute with Ringo Starr, Ian Anderson, Ella Fitzgerald, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, John Lee Hooker, Bo Diddley, Adam Sandler and Bruce Springsteen.

Rocks that rock! If diamonds are a girl's best friend, she really needs to socialize a bit more! Rock on with Deep Purple, Fleetwood Mac, Rihanna, Father John Misty, Izzy Bizu, Lorde, Mahavishnu Orchestra, They Might Be Giants, Echo and the Bunnymen and Pink Floyd!

No Metal aloud! Only Metal allowed! Non Heavy Metal music about gold, silver and even a bit of copper. This episode is precious! Let the music ring by Fleetwood Mac, Dustin Tebbutt, James Taylor, The Beatles, Neil Young, Prelude and Dan Fogelberg & Time Weisberg!

Geezer Rock, aka Walker Rocker, aka Rocker Rocker, aka I've Fallen and I Can't Rock Out! Studio cuts from artists released after the age of 60. Crank up your hearing aids for David Bowie, The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Roger Daltrey, Eric Clapton, Joe Satriani, Ian Anderson and Mark Knopfler!

You survived the series! Madness, Sadness, Badness - now finish it up with Gladness. You'll be glad you did! Get giddy with Boston, Neil Diamond, Otis Redding, X Ambassadors, Imagine Dragons, Brenda Holloway, Skip James and Cream!

Calling good, evil and evil, good. Since when has it been 'cool' to be 'bad'? We've got Al Stewart, Jack Johnson, Weezer, George Thorogood (guess which song), Queen, ZZ Top and The Beatles.

Give sorrow words; the grief that does not speak knits up the overwrought heart and bids it break. - Shakespeare Give sorrow music; the grief that does not rock out knits up the overwrought heart and bids it break. - Garage Door Give your sorrow the music of Metallica, Mazzy Star, The Mountain Goats, The Avett Brothers, Sam Smith, Etta James, Sting and Warren Zevon.
