Welcome to Anoo Radio.

10 years ago, I found & #39;Blues on a Holiday& #39; thru Susan Tedeschi. This week, I found its actually by a bashful sweet fellow called Paul Richell in the 70s who says he first wrote it for Bonnie Raitt but was too shy to tell her when he met her! https://youtu.be/1bw_M2SOI0s ">https://youtu.be/1bw_M2SOI...

There are also barely any covers of tutorials of this perfect song, so strange... barely any of & #39;Papa Come Quick& #39; too... Im rueing this because Id be happy to learn these, so someone upload a tutorial quick?

This one by Johnnie Taylor is such a dance song... AND might be the most feminist musical spoutation Ive heard from a man: Its a man telling other men to respect the physical & sexual autonomy of women in their life!
Bet we never heard that while dancing! https://youtu.be/3RueCun_Bh8 ">https://youtu.be/3RueCun_B...

Ok now on to, Jackson Browne& #39;s & #39;The Load-Out& #39; (& #39;Stay& #39;).

Its not a love song but its a song about love...?

9mins from a live concert, I love the first 3mins but wait thru because I love how it changes at 3.30m, 4.10m, 5m &then builds into & #39;Stay& #39; at 5.35m! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scsJZ67ssDY">https://www.youtube.com/watch...

And then it ends after 9 mins but I never want it to and I feel totally present in that 1977 live concert!

9 mins of Load-Out/Stay then ususally sets me on a predictable track of Jackson Browne > Bruce Hornsby > Steve Winwood...

Few tracks been on my mind thru the last many weeks of this humanitarian labour crisis.

& #39;I aint gonna work on Maggi& #39;s Farm No More.& #39;

Some think Dylan was making a comment on labour. Anyway, I prefer this sung in the key of..... Rage Against The Machine

Also on the crisis: & #39;Cant Find My Way Home& #39; by the short lived supergroup, Blind Faith (Steve Winwood, Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker, and Ric Grech) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IN1J5sMv28Q">https://www.youtube.com/watch...

And for something "closer" to 2020: & #39;The Hands That Built America& #39;, U2

(I try to flag off the years of songs often because it always shocks me how much time has passed... like U2 released this in 2002. 18 years ago!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sj15WP_tUoo">https://www.youtube.com/watch...

On that note, this one from Gavin DeGraw... Have I really been listening to it for 16 years?!

In 2004, he did a soulful mashup of & #39;Tracks of My Tears& #39; and & #39;Cupid.& #39;
Still listening to it.
A rare deserving candidate in the & #39;blue eyed soul& #39; genre. https://youtu.be/BUyDZa3uSYc ">https://youtu.be/BUyDZa3uS...

As part of the numerous offerings we have received from musicians #AtHome during this pandemc, this week we got Alicia Keys who did a quick piano number of Stevie Wonder& #39;s & #39;Love& #39;s in Need of Love Today.’

Truth? I like it better than the original! https://youtu.be/-JUQm0Rde8g ">https://youtu.be/-JUQm0Rde...

But may I not belittle & #39;Innervisions.& #39;

Innervisions is from the gospel of Stevie Wonder, so there& #39;s no mincing around the album. Its the best (maybe more on this album later).
