Peter Tosh – “Equal Rights”
Jamaican reggae musician Peter Tosh is this week’s Soothing the Beast BFP/Jamiol Music Pick. Tosh was a core member of the band The Wailers and went on to a successful solo career. The song tonight is Equal Rights…Enjoy…DJPJ
Annie Lennox – Waiting in Vain
We haven’t visited Annie Lennox for a while and seeing that she’s one of my favorite artists, she’ll be this week’s Soothing the Beast BFP/Jamiol Music Pick. The song is Bob Marley’s Waiting in Vain and Annie’s cover of the song is the best…so tonight it’s Annie Lennox on stage performing Waiting in Vain…enjoy…DJPJ
Diane Krall- “Cry Me A River”
Soothing is the operative word for this week’s Soothing the Beast BFP/Jamiol Music Pick. Canadian jazz pianist and singer Diana Krall takes us down with her performance of Cry Me a River. Krall has sold more than 6 million albums in the US and over 15 million worldwide. How
she performs this song is a tiny bit of proof of why she has such a huge following…Enjoy…DJPJ.
Crosby, Stills & Nash- “Wooden Ships”
This week’s Soothing the Beast BFP/Jamiol Music Pick is from one of my favorite groups… Crosby, Stills & Nash. The song is Wooden Ships which was written by David Crosby, Paul Kanter and Stephen Stills. It was written at the height of the Vietnam War and describes the consequences of an apocalyptic nuclear war. While not the most “Soothing” subject matter, C, S & N do it up nicely in this live performance…so kick back and enjoy…DJPJ.
Fats Domino- “I Want To Walk You Home”
We are again back in time with this week’s Soothing the Beast BFP/Jamiol Music Pick. The artist is the great Fats Domino and the song is his hit record I Want to Walk You Home. This is Fats at his best…Enjoy…DJPJ.
Billie Holiday- “All of Me”
I was going over the list of the artists we’ve had on the Soothing the Beast BFP/Jamiol Music Pick and one that was missing was the amazing Billie Holiday! So tonight we add her to the list with her singing All of Me…Enjoy…DJPJ.
Natalie Merchant – “These are the Days”
Gil Scott-Heron and Brian Jackson- “Winter in America”
