As a fan of a wide variety of popular (and not-so-popular) music from the 1950s (and sometimes even earlier) up through the present, one of my bucket list projects for years has been to put together a list of my 100 favorite songs of all time. At some point I decided that, once I got around to figuring that out, I could put it out on a blog, for the infinitesimally small proportion of the Internet world that might be interested. So, here we are. While the Top 100 will be a major focus, I also plan to post on a variety of other musical (and occasionally non-musical) topics, in which you may or may not be interested. (If a particular posting doesn’t ring your bell, you’re only a few clicks away from a dancing cat video on YouTube.)

War, Birchmere, 4/29/2015


If you could have captured all of the energy on stage and in the audience during these two hours into a storage battery, you could probably power the Birchmere for at least a month.
 
Highlights – “Slippin’ Into Darkness” (of course) … beginning of show with an extended version of “The World Is A Ghetto” segueing into “Get Down” … extended bass and sax/harmonica solos during “Galaxy” … wireless karaoke during “Cisco Kid” … Nick the kid vocalist/drummer near the end
