Today on The VE
Love to hear percussion? We'll turn the beat around and feature some great vinyl records that push the drums way
up front...and we'll note the annual celebration this week of the rock drummer who became a pop superstar...plus
some cool relics spun from 45's and even a drum-centric 78. I'm PC and this is the VE
Peter Gabriel: Rhythn Of The Heat
Joni Mitchell: The Jungle Line
The VE with powerful drumming at the heart of Joni Mitchell's "The Jungle Line" from The Hissing Of Summer
Lawns from 1975, and Peter Gabriel with "Rhythm Of The Heat," off Security in 1982.
Rhythm, melody and harmony--that's what music is made of. But rhythm comes first...in life too...the beating of our
mother's heart in the womb programs us to order our world with rhythm.
Drummer Cozy Cole scored a late 50's hit with ....
Cozy Cole: Topsy, Part 2
Cream: Toad
The VE, drumming it into you this time around, with Ginger Baker bashing out "Toad" with Cream in 1966, and
Cozy Cole, at the dawn of rock and roll, for "Topsy."
Drummers have always been flamboyant, but before Keith Moon, Ringo Starr, or even Buddy Rich, the original
wild-man drummer was Gene Krupa, who's jungle rhythm on Benny Goodman's "Sing SIng Sing" shook the rafters
at Carnegie Hall in 1938. Around the same time, clarinet-competitor Woody Herman billed his orchestra as "The
band that plays the blues," and his drummer, Frank Carlson, laid a hypnotic rhythm down for "The Golden
Wedding."
Woody Herman: The Golden Wedding
Led Zeppelin: D'yer Maker
The VE, Bonzo bashes the drums, and steals the show in "D'yer Maker," Led Zeppelin's warmest and wittiest
record.
Some legendary jazz drummers have passed inrecent years....Max Roach, Paul Motian...and just this year, Joe
Morello, who played "Far More Drums" with The Dave Brubeck Quartet, a cool record not just for the grove, but for
the pioneering way that Joe's drums were recorded in the early days of stereo.
Dave Brubeck Quartet: Far More Drums
side 2
The VE, with far more than just drums to keep time...Bongos rock--with Preston Epps and Chico Hamilton....
Preston Epps: Bongo Rock
Tony Bennett/Chico Hamilton: Crazy Rhythm
The VE with that crazy dope-smokin' beatnick---Tony Bennett? Together with Chico Hamilton, who appeared as
himself in the New York-noir classic "The Sweet Smell Of Success." Sal Mineo starred in "The Gene Krupa Story,"
but the greatest matinee-idol drummer of all--Phil! This past Wednesday was once again, Phil Collins Day in
Brooklyn, where the hipster parade in honor of the greatest pop-star drummer ever. The record that set Phil apart
in his solo career...while still cranking out Genesis hits, was this deep, dark tune, ruined by radio overexposure
through the years...but in spun fro the original vinyl, "In The Air Tonight, and still dramatic as ever.
Phil Collins: In The Air Tonight
Sandy Nelson Teen Beat
The VE, drumming thorugh the library with relic, "Teen Beat" by Sandy Nelson...to a classic, from the debut by
Santana...
Santana: Soul Sacrifice
The VE...latin rhythm to ...turn the beat around. Love to hear percussion? In the mid 70's, dance music reigned,
and this hot 12 inch mix of Vicki Sue Robinson's disco anthem features a hot guitar solo by Steely Dan's Elliot
Randall
Vicki Sue Robinson: Turn The Beat Around
And That's the VE...."Turn The Beat Around...a record that by doing just that, far outclasses the monotonous disco
genre.

Today on the VE... a real cool theme that will have you connecting the dots thorugh the next hour of music--but
first, let's begin with a salute to actor and game show master Richard Dawson, who died last week, but left this 45
RPM relic as part of his show business lagacy. I'm PC and this is the VE :
Richard Dawson: Apples And Oranges
Richard Dawson, at the height of his Hogan's Heroes fame, with the psychedelic novelty record, "Apples And
Oranges." Funny...didn't Pink Floyd releaase a single with the same title at about the same time? (Pink Floyd:
Apples And Oranges, est & fade) ....and so, my eureka moment....struggling with a theme for this week's Vinyl
Experience...it's right there...like apples and oranges...some songs can share the same title, but be very
different..case in point--let's stay with with Pink Floyd, and a cut from their 1970 album "Atom Heart Mother," called
"If, " and follow that with a very different group, song of the same title, and similar emotional tenor...can you guess
who it will be ...
Pink Floyd: If
Bread: If
The VE with Bread, and Pink Floyd...two groups as different as apples and oranges, and two different, but relatable
songs with the common title of "If." See how this works. OK.. Let's stay in the early 70's....1974 specifically, when
two songs, both on Atlantic Records, shared the same title, and the distinction of being two of the year's bigest
hits...
Roberta Flack: Feel Like Making Love
Bad Company: Feel Like Making Love
The VE....Feel Like Making Love, by Bad Company, and Roberta Flack. As different as Apples and Oranges...let's
keep it going , two entirely differnt eras of rock and roll, but two teen-idol bad boys, each debuting with a song
called "Runaway."
Bon Jovi: Runaway
Del Shannon: Runaway
The VE, Apples and Oranges...the songs Runaway by Del Shannon ion 1961, and Bon Jovi, who was an infant the
year that came out, but shot to stardom in '83 with his tune. How about a bonus "Runaway" ?!
Jefferson Starship: Runaway
The VE....same title, different songs. Like apples and oranges...or paintings and.... photographs...
Ringo Starr: Photograph
Def Leppard: Photograph
The VE....I know you've got the hang of this by now
Cars Bye Bye Love
Everly Brothers: Bye Bye Love
Apples and oranges, and Cars and Everly Brothers, "Bye Bye Love," on the VE. There are so many twin title
songs, we'll have to do a sequel hour some time....but for now, just time for another couple of sets...this one is
Radiohead's most covered tune
Radiohead: High And Dry
Rolling Stones: High And Dry
The Rolling Stones first attempt at a country-blues tune, and with fine harmonica by Mick jagger, on Aftermath's
"High And Dry," and Radiohead, wit thie lonesome cowboy ballad "High ANd Dry," a tune Thom Yorke dislikes, but
artists as diverse as Sugarland and Jamie Cullum, adore...they'e done their own versions...apples and oranges
indeed. Let's wrap it up with some greasers, and the original skinny kid singer from the neighborhood....
Five Satins: In The Still Of The Night
Frank Sinatra: In the Still Of The Night
And that's the VE. As simple as The Five Satins, as sophisticated as Sinatra.....
VE 179 Summer Solstice
Miles Davis: Summertime
The Band: Time To Kill
XTC: Season Cycle
Ray La Montagne: For The Summer

Lovin Spoonful: Rain On the Roof

Tony Bennett: Lazy Afternoon
Pink Floyd: Grantchester Meadows
Wilco: Sky Blue Sky
Oasis: Don't Look Back In Anger
Thin Lizzy: The Boys Are Back In Town
Today on the VE--celebrating the summer solstice with songs to roll out the season. I'm PC and this is the VE:
Miles Davis: Summertime
The Band: Time To Kill
XTC: Season Cycle
Happy Sumer Solstice from the VE. "Season Cycle" came from XTC's album Skylarking. That record, and the one
before it, Stage Fright by the Band were produced by Todd Rundgren, some 16 years apart. Rick Danko's song "
Time To Kill' captures the easy free feeling of early summer with many sweet days ahead---- God Willing And The
Creek DOn't Rise...that's the title of Ray La Montagne's 2009 LP featuring the song "For The Summer'
Ray La Montagne: For The Summer
B52s: June Bug
"Cosmic Thing" was one of the great LP comeback stories..for The B52's...from it, "June Bug." Summer Solstice
Celebration. spining some records from the 60s that havent lost innocence, or freshness. As the Kinks sing,
"everybody's looking for the sun...."
The Kinks: Wonderboy
Love: The Good Humor Man
Lovin Spoonful: Rain On the Roof
A couple of American bands--Love and Lovin Spoonful...sandwiched in between British legends The Kinks...and
this summer essential by Small Faces....
Small Faces: Itchycoo Park
The VE Summer Solstice celebration continues with a couple of great word-picture songs, by artists who come from
far corners of the galaxy..but still places where summer comes...
Tony Bennett: Lazy Afternoon
Pink Floyd: Grantchester Meadows
As dissimilar as Pink Floyd and Tony Bennett are, they seem to be on the same page when it comes to summer
daydreaming. From Ummagumma, early Floyd and "Grantchester Meadows" fly-swat and all...and from an early
June night at Carnegie hall in 1962, Tony Bennett in his prime, with the tulip trees a bloomin and the beetle bugs a
zoomin on a Lazy Afternoon.
Summer is a state of min dtoo. If you're havin gtrouble getting into it, take refuge in these songs by Wilco and then
Oasis...
Wilco: Sky Blue Sky
Oasis: Don't Look Back In Anger
Oasis, from the LP with the summer tite What's The Story Morning Glory..and Wilco with the title cut of 2008's Sky
Blue Sky. Finally on the VE...if all we've heard hasn't convinced you that it won't be long till summer comes--this
one will do it.
Thin Lizzy: The Boys Are Back In Town
And that's the VE...Thin Lizzy makes it official...summer's here and the time is right....to download some VE shows

VE 131 Prehistoric Rock
Today on the VE---rock, before it rolled. A rumage through the pre-historic rock vaults for songs that
foreshadowed rock and roll, compiled by guest programmer Dan Miele. These are vintage recordings but
their vitality will surprise you. I'm PC and this is the VE
Roll 'Em Pete Big Joe Turner 1938
Prehistoric rock on the VE. From the year 1938 AD that's the blues shouting daddy of em all, Big Joe
Turner with "Roll Em Pete." One of the first R&B recordings to make use of what was to become the rock
and roll back beat - as opposed to the more common shuffle rhythm. This song was later recorded by
Count Basie, and Joe recorded with the Basie band in later years. Joe Turner was the frist to record Shake,
Rattle and Roll, which later became a hit for Bill Haley and His Comets.
Things are really rockin at the House Of Blue Lights....Freddie Slack and Ella May Morse...
House of Blue Lights Freddie Slack (co-writer with Don Ray) and Ella Mae Morse 1946
Down the Road Apiece: Will Bradley Trio 1940
Dinosaurs roam the earth again--it's prehistoric rock on the VE. A couple there that were echoed in 60s
rock. Mitch Ryder refefrenced "house Of Blue Lights" by Freddie Slack and Ella Mae Morse, and The
Rolling Stones covered Will Bradley's "Down The Road Apiece."
Robert Plant recorded this one by Wynonie Mr Blues Harris with his group The Honeydrippers...and I'll
follow it up with the song that gave th eband their name.........
Good Rockin' Tonight: Wynonie Harris: 1948
Joe Liggins: The Honeydripper
The Honeydripper was Joe Liggins, who along with Wynonie Harris, was an inspiration to Robert Plant.
It's prehistoric rock on the VE. Here are a couple you'll know from their rock covers by Aerosmith and
George Thorogood....
Bull Moose Jackson: Big Ten Inch ***pull from YOutube
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJpO4ObZSdg
Amos Milburn: One Bourbon, One Scotch One Beer *** pull from
youtubehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TqglR7YG1Y
The VE with prehistoric rock from Amos Milburn and Bull Moose Jackson...with the original versions of
songs you know well from seventies rock. Here's someon ewho held the title "queen of rock and roll"
when the competition iin thie category was pretty slim....but Sister Rosetta Tharpe had it all goin
gon...gospel chops and sex appeal....
Sister Rosetta Tharpe: Rock Daniel 1941
The Fat Man: Fats Domino:
The VE with PreHistoric Rock....but it begins inprope with thhe fat man, Antione Domino, from
1950....the tune is a variation on the traditional New Orleans tune Junker's Blues, which also provided the
melody for Lloyd Price's Lawdy Miss Clawdy.
Now, the guy known as the King of the Jukebox. Louis Jordan and His Tympany Five tore it up with
hilarious story-songs. His guitarist Carl Hogan guitar has been cited by Chuck Berry as one of his main
influences
Louis Jordan & His Tympany 5 : Ain't That Just Like a Woman 1946
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEqiWTb-UWA
Julia Lee and her Boyfriends Gotta Gimme Whatcha Got 1946http://www.youtube.com/watch?
v=Pq98BQ7E7Bk
The VE with Prehistoric rock.. THAT girfriend could sing! Julia Lee And Her Boyfriends..who just
happened to be two legendary names of jazz-- Benny Carter and Red Norvo. No small wonder that she
commanded such prime session men--Julia sang and played piano in her brother George Lee's band,
which for a time also included Charlie Parker.
So where did 'rock" really begin? 1947--Wild Bill Moore
We're Gonna Rock Wild Bill Moore 1947
Rock the Joint: Jimmy Preston 1949
The VE with Prehistoric Rock, and the name itself, attributed to Clevland DJ Alan Freed, was taken from
tenor sax man Will Bill Moore's "We're Gonna Rock" which showed up on his Moondog Show radio
programs...also Jimmy Preston and Rock The Joint.
Let's rock out today's VE with one more that George Thorogood latched on to, by a legend of country
music who died before rock was born...
Move It On Over Hank Williams 1947
Jack Guthrie: Oakie Boogie
The Year was 1947. And like the legendary flying saucer that crash landed in Roswell, New Mexico, the
alien music life form of rock and roll was taking shape with some help from country cousin Hank
Williams, and right there Jack Guthrie and the western swing jam "Oakie Boogie, which Bill Haley's
Rock Around The Clock owes a debt to. Jack was the cousin of the seminal American music figure who
would have been 100 years old this week. Woody introduced one element of what would become rock
that we haven't touched on yet...the political and intellectual...soomething that was rare in popular music
of his day...but as a folk singer, Woody could speak his mind, and he makes an obvious political
statement in this song from 1940:
Woody Guthrie: Jesus Christ
Robert Wilkins; That's No Way To Get Along
Pre Historic Rock on The VE....Woody Guthrie, Jesus Christ, and Revered Robert Wilkins, "That's No
Way To Get Along..." rock rooted in bible stories....and that last one brings us to the half century mark
this week of the British rock band that brought all the early influences together in an entirely new,
original sound.
Rolling Stones: Not Fade Away
50 years ago, the Rolling Stones played their first gig at The Marquee Club in London. This week, they
posed outside thevenue and strongly hinted at a fiftieth anniversary tour. Not Fade Away. 20 years ago,
let alone 50, who would have thought that would be The Rolling Stones legacy.
To top off this VE exploration of Prehistoric rock, here is an evocative and epic song by another great
interperter of the rock roots. From his 1990 album "Enlightenment," Van Morrsion sings of "The Days
Before Rock And Roll, " and how those distant radio signals in the deepest night brought a brilliant new
light into his young world.
Van Morrison : In The Days Before Rock And Roll.
And that's the VE. A true mystic poet, Van Morrsion always finds a way to say it for all of us.

Today on the VE....
With holiday season approaching, the most stressful time of the year is upon us. Feeling a bit--edgy. An hour or vinyl track sto work off your frustrations to. I'm PC and this is the VE....
The Knack: Frustrated
The Everly Brothers: Problems
Graham Parker: Stupefaction
Graham Parker, The Everly Brothers and The Knack, to get this Vinyl Experience ...and the knots in your neck....worked out andn stress free. Animal Colllective's current LP is Centipede...this song, Mercury Man deals with how the balancing act of life can be as impossible as keeping a ball of mercury still....
Animal Collective: Mercury Man
Pretenders: Time The Avenger
Aretha Franklin: Satisfaction
The opposite of frustration---satisfaction....but even the Queen of Soul ain't gettin' any. The Rolling Stones classic, perhaps the greatest frustration song ever, from the Atlantic album Aretha Arrives. Also The Pretenders with "Time The Avenger, " from the MFSL reissue of Learning To Crawl....Pete Townshend now, the original version of a song that the Who would put out as a single...a procrastinators anthem...."Let's See Action!"
Pete Townshend: Let's See Action
Buddy Miles: Dreams (I'll Never See)
George Harrison: Wah Wah
Frustration grips the VE today, with George Harrison feeling it in his last yeears with The Beatles, and letting it all out on All Things Must Pass. Buddly Miles from Them Changes and a seldom heard version of the Allman Brothers great modern blues, "Dreams I'll Never See." The new LP by The Mountain Goats is rich and reewarding...not frustrating at all. It's Trancendental Youth, and from it, a song that works out some issues called "Cry For Judas."
Mountain Goats: Cry For Judas
Green Day: Welcome To Paradise
Bob Dylan: Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues
Dylan throws inthe towel on "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues," from teh Mono Box reissue of Highway 61 Revisited. Green Day perfected the frustration anthems of the 90s, such as "Longview" and "Basket Case," but it all started with that little letter to mom , "Welcome To Paradise," from Kerplunk. ANd finally, another from the "be careful what yuou wisih for" file......
Peggy Lee: Is That All There Is
And that's the VE. Peggy Lee's 1969 hit of the jaded Lieber & Stoller song "Is That All There Is." Feeling relieved?! I hope this VE worked out some issues for you too!
