Today's Tune (formerly 'Song of the Day')
Today's Tune - 19 August 2022. Stephen Stills wrote 'Sit Down I Think I Love You' & performed it with the Buffalo Springfield. The Executives (Australia) had a good version: My fave: The Mojo Men. Terrific arrangement youtu.be/PXYEN-AY5kI vimeo.com/302608099#aquadocaudio
Today's Tune - 18 August 2022. Love this video and The Mavericks' great rendition of Cat Stevens' 'Here Comes My Baby'. Raul Malo knocks it out of the park! youtu.be/cos9y6Mfv6s#AquadocAudio
Song of the Day 17 August 2022. John C. Stewart was in the Kingston Trio and a songwriter. Main claim to fame - he wrote the Monkees' blockbuster 'Daydream Believer'. Here he sings 'Gold' w/ Stevie Nicks in background. Just stumbled on this! youtu.be/reFlgu1vq3Q#aquadocaudio
Song of the Day 16 August 2022. Love the lyrics and arrangement on this long, live version of Al Stewart's 'Year of the Cat'. '...you go strolling through the crowd like PEE-ter Lorre contemplating a crime.' Shoulda stayed with the alto sax! youtu.be/AazEMt0eoFg#aquadocaudio
Song of the Day 15 August 2022. Oh! Did this British Invasion group grab me like no other. Guitar solo by Dave Davies amazing for 1964. Almost quit my alto sax! First punk/heavy metal/garage band? Who knew? youtu.be/4XO_wWC69Rc#aquadocaudio
Song of the Day 14 August 2022. Written by Kenny Loggins and Michael McDonald (singer) could 'What A Fool Believes' be the exemplar of 'Yacht Rock'? No way - not the Doobie Brothers! youtu.be/qKYQNtF11eg#aquadocaudio
Song of the Day 13 August 2022. Brewer & Shipley had a huge 1971 hit 'One Toke Over the Line'. The song fooled many who thought it was a 'modern spiritual' like Gale & Dale on Lawrence Welk's Show: youtu.be/t8tdmaEhMHE Here's the real deal youtu.be/gVxA1MkEkyo#aquadocaudio

I laughed when I saw this years ago. I don't think it's funny, but realistic. Put @P_Mulroy in charge of Colorado River allocations and let her do the job. #SWUSwater
“I think it's important we communicate this to our community, so other Native kids, if they thought maybe that this was not a possibility or to realize some of those barriers that used to be there are really starting to get broken down.”- Nicole Aunapu Mann, @NASA astronaut, who will be first Native American woman in space
