Mr T is on the air!
I will be on vacation the next two Mondays. I'll be back on the air August 24th.
Friends of Fine, Fun Music,
Join in the fine fun tomorrow, Monday, Aug-24, at 3pmET for ON THE AUX, at HomeGrownRadioNJ.com!
It's Lounge Music for Grownups! ©.
I'll be sharing COVER versions of lots of songs. Some you may have heard but Many. You. Surely. Have. Not. I love covers. On occasion they're better than the original. All Along the Watchtower, anyone? (I will not be playing that Hendrix cover, with its 3 amazing guitar solos.)
Covers of songs by Dylan and the Beatles, of course, and plenty of them. Covers of Rod Stewert Yes! Of Chicago? Yes! Blind Faith, Hendrix, the Dead and the Beach Boys? Yes, yes, and yes. Of Tom Waits, the Left Banke, The Nashville Teens, Blondie, Hank Williams, Tennessee Ernie Ford and more. Oh, yes!

Every time I see this thread I think of the other Mr. T.
Yes, yes. I pity the fool.
What an interesting program today! Not all of it was my favourite (a bit too jangly for my ears) but so many new-to-me artists to explore. 😃 (Most of the originals I know well)
That version of Renee is beautiful! I’m going to be humming that for hours. Thank you, The_Soulful_Mr_T, for your knowledge and skill.

I had never heard of the red dirt music scene before today. Thanks Mr. T.

The website also, now, points you to the TuneIn app to load onto your phone - take the station (and the Show!) with you wherever you may roam.
The_Soulful_Mr_T, I’m wondering if you have thoughts for next week’s program? Knowing you, you’ve probably got most of it ready to roll…
Would it be too cheesy to perhaps have a segment on Dolly Parton, and perhaps some lesser-known musos/songwriters she’s strongly influenced?
Whatever you decide, I’m sure I’ll really enjoy the broadcast. Thank you for sharing your passion with us. >;;D<

Mark your calendars. Notify your friends.
Sigh. Kept breaking up and dropping out, for me. (I think that my local weather patterns might be ‘battling’ the signal - we’re expecting rain today, and even local radio is having a hard time. )
what I did hear has turned into an earworm!
