hello

Two hours of music,  squeezed out of a tube and onto your music brush.

hello

“The Harp” Shawn Hall joins me for a glorious walk through the new live album  Live at The King Eddy by The Harpoonist and the Axe Murderer. (And our pal Dawn Pemberton is a wonderful part of the mix)
All of the beautiful noise at The King Eddy was captured  3 years ago by the legendary Rolling Stones Mobile.
(Led Zeppelin, The Who, Dire Straits. Bob Marley Live, Exile on Main Street, Sticky Fingers, etc)
Complete interview on Mulligan Stew Podcast. Video on YouTube
Also, a donor asked for All along the Watchtower but didn’t specify which of the many artists who’ve covered Dylan’s classic.
So we played “a few” to start the show.

Playing for change (Neville Family)

Ritchie Havens

Brothers and Sister with Merry Clayton

Bob Dylan

Also a donor suggestion – they were making plans to go to London for concerts, etc but COVID delayed plans so….we play live tunes recorded in London…

Carole King

Amy Winehouse

Leonard Cohen

Elton John

Enjoy and Happy Valentines

hello

As you know,  I’ve had the honor and giddy pleasure of following Holger’s  2 hours of Natch’l Blues for 27 years.

The majesty of The Blues has a profound effect on The Stew. This week, for example, I started thinking about how new life was breathed into the blues by the British Invasion of the mid-’60s.  Blues artists who were ignored or taken for granted in America could find a new audience in Europe and especially the UK.

That new audience included teen-aged members of The Rolling Stones, The Animals, Led Zeppelin, John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers, Jeff Beck., Rod Stewart, Steve Winwood, etc.  When those young Brits refashioned the blues into blues rock, the music world shifted into high gear and turned the volume up to 10.

America got its own music back.  It was reimagined and very exciting.

Back to Back Laverne Baker and The Animals doing See See Rider

Back to back Muddy Waters and The Stones.

Steve Winwood – Gimme Some Loving

Robert Plant and Alison Krauss – Bobby Moore’s Searching for my baby

Jeff Beck and Rod Stewart – Willie Dixon’s  I ain’t Superstitious

Throw in some donor-requested Fats Domino / Wilbert Harrison and we’re Off and  Running.

New music from Courtney Barnett, Brandi Carlile, The Lumineers, Corb Lund,  The Fretless, and Dan Mangan!

And we finish with

Tower of Power, Gerry Garcia Band doing The Temptations, Cat Stevens, William Prince, Dylan, etc.

And our feature interview guest is Joey Landreth from The Bros. Landreth.

Joey and brother David grew up in a house in Winnipeg where their musician Father played Little Feat, The Byrds, CSN  etc.

Joey’s new solo album is called All that you dream and is a tribute to Lowell George and Little Feat.

The whole two hours has the jam to lift your spirits.  You in?

OH…the Mulligan Stew Podcast is Billy Joel – 1988

PLAYLIST:

hello

Ronnie Spector has left the stage. Gone but never forgotten.  Leaving Ronettes hits like…

• Be my baby
• (The best part of) Breakin’ Up
• Baby, I love you
• Timeless.

It’s where Brian Wilson went to cool school. Amy Winehouse was pure Ronnie. From the hair to the sound.

Huge, raw voice. With an attitude. But one of the nicest people you could ever want to meet.

We start The Stew with a track you may not have heard before.

It’s Ronnie Spector singing lead vocal on Billy Joel’s Say Goodbye to Hollywood with the E Street Band. The song and the singer helped to raise some cash so Bruce Springsteen could continue his climb to the top.

All the strings were pulled by Miami Steve van Zandt.  We start with the story than the song.

Check out the REST of The Stew in our playlist below…

hello

For me…2022 will be about trying to find “balance” in my life.

Between my love of what I do and the complete love of my growing family.

So, to start a brand new year, after two chaotic ones, you and I start with a playlist that’s balanced.

Between tracks and artists that made an impression on a lot of people and tracks that pull the heart.

Between music for meal prep and music to prime the New Years Pump.

I went back to the years playlists and the songs that jumped out at me made the list.

Thank you and be safe and enjoy your 2022.
