Song Comments by Chwkbud
The Beatles - Hey Bulldog
(Feb 11, 2013 - 15:52)
Oddly...I had never heard that song before! Like it! Thanks for another discovery RP

Taj Mahal - Queen Bee
(Sep 12, 2010 - 16:10)
Just saw Taj a moth ago at Burnaby Blues+Roots Fest (Burnaby, BC, Canada); he was in great form and did this song too. Thanks for taking me back to that night!


Leonard Cohen - I'm Your Man
(Apr 18, 2010 - 13:28)
Ok, so a minority opinion here but I've never been a Cohen fan, or at least of his 'singing'. {#No} 
I'd much rather hear other singers interpret his songs.  He's better as a poet. (jmho).

Cat Stevens - Sad Lisa
(Apr 17, 2010 - 17:44)
What a flashback. Tea for the Tillerman — Still one of my favourite albums of the last 40 years....

The Pogues - Tuesday Morning
(Aug 17, 2009 - 10:28)
Even though it's Monday morning—or maybe especially cause it's Monday morning here — thanks for this play, as the song is one of my all time favourites . A great boost for the day!

Waterboys - Fisherman's Blues
(Mar 27, 2007 - 21:49)

Good stuff--but new to me (where have I been?!) Before I checked the playlist, I thought it was Steve Forbert. Hey...how about playing some Steve F?

The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again
(Dec 30, 2006 - 18:19)
and I don't care if the CSI franchise has co-opted Who songs (for generous royalties one assumes) - I still love this song...especially hearing the whole thing versus a 25 sec snippet.
It rocks forever. Godlike, indeed
The Pogues - Tuesday Morning
(Dec 30, 2006 - 15:20)
My all time fav by the Pogues - always makes me get up and dance. They used this in a movie 'Blown Away' as I recall.
Al Stewart - Nostradamus
(Feb 08, 2004 - 17:36)

Oh man, THAT is a flashback - I recall playing this over and over--I think trying to learn the words--when I first bought the record in the 70's, and saw Al live. It's ok now once ina long while....
Hmm...whatever happened to Al Stewart (post Year of Cat)?
Elvis Costello - Peace, Love and Understanding
(Jul 24, 2003 - 18:23)
Vintage Elvis... he sure has taken us on a musical voyage since then. And now listen to his newest, "North" !
Always appreciate artists blazing new paths even if I don't always appreciate the sounds...at first.
Harry Manx - Crazy Love
(Jul 24, 2003 - 16:54)
Love this edition of Crazy Love (sorry you Van purists.) Great blues singer/player from Saltspring Island on Canada's West Coast!

The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony
(Jul 08, 2003 - 11:19)
one of my all time favs, love that opening. Everytime it comes on, the volume goes WAY up!
thanks for the replay
Weakerthans - Left And Leaving
(Jul 04, 2003 - 14:32)
What an intriguing delivery! Despite a low key approach,it sure catches your attention. Nice add to the mix.
Robyn Hitchcock - Mexican God
(Apr 15, 2003 - 11:23)
Yikes, listening to some of these lyrics without first noting the title causes some alarm! Unusual subject matter, but liked it.
Harry Manx - Brick And Stone
(Feb 02, 2003 - 18:11)
Love Harry Manx's sound; he fuses acoustic blues with Indian sitar and other world sounds. Love to hear more cuts of his CDs.
