A Song A Day #280 Bauhaus: Bela Lugosi's Dead. I saw Bauhaus at The Ritz (NYC) in the early #80s. Peter Murphy strolled into the crowd at some point and stroked my face. given my shy, introverted nature this kinda freaked me out…

A Song A Day #279 The Cure: A Forest. one of my favorite live YT clips. nothing against Robert Palmer, but I love the whole “Fuck Robert Palmer” vibe…

A Song A Day #278 Adriano Celentano: Prisencólinensináinciúsol. I doubt I could have predicted falling in love with an Italian pop song with gibberish lyrics, but here we are…
#ASongADay #MusicSky #AdrianoCelentano #Prisencólinensináinciúsol #Gibberish
another good one, but for me Heroes > Tusk.

I did not discover this tune until I read @simonreynolds.bsky.social great book, Rip It Up and Start Again 20ish years ago… (2/2)

A Song A Day #277 Orange Juice: Rip It Up. another #80s song that somehow didn’t make it into my musical world at the time. for certain I would have loved this funky post-punk pop gem… (1/2)

A Song A Day #276 The Clash: Stay Free. my favorite Clash song with Mick Jones on lead vocals. I had a bootleg of this show that I bought in HS. “for the rest of ya…”

agree on all counts.

A Song A Day #275 Marianne Faithfull: Why'd Ya Do It? Punk meets Disco and Marianne Faithfull comes out on top. if there is as scornful a song as compelling as this I’m unfamiliar with it…
#ASongADay #MusicSky #MarianneFaithfull #WhydYaDoIt
I was gonna say I didn’t realize it went that far back. I certainly didn’t hear it until sometime in the 2000s.

A Song A Day #274 Patti Jo: Make Me Believe in You. Patti Jo’s sweet vocals make this Curtis Mayfield written and produced piece of Proto-Disco soul an absolute classic…

I'm gonna have to dig into his newsletter to see what I've been missing. my condolences to anyone who had Kaleb in their lives and miss him dearly. (2/2)
29.09.2025 21:27 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0I had not encountered Kaleb Horton until I began discovering in my feeds an outpouring of memorial posts honoring him after his recent tragic death. I am quite certain that until now I have never read a FB post that immediately made me realize "wow! this is a great writer!" (1/2)

A Song A Day #272 Herbie Hancock: Hang Up Your Hang Ups. Headhunters era Herbie Hancock. some of the funkiest jazz u will ever hear. I’m guessing I first encountered this as sampled by DJ Food on Hung Up…

A Song A Day #27 1 Chromium: Time Traveler. new to me. an early Trevor Horn project. Trevor Horn + Disco makes a lot of sense…

A Song A Day #270 John Martyn: I'd Rather Be The Devil. never having heard it, I bought Solid Air strictly on reputation. this wicked cover of Skip James’ Devil Got My Woman was a revelation…
#ASongADay #MusicSky #JohnMartyn #IdRatherBeTheDevil #SolidAir
A Song A Day #269 Parliament: Presence of a Brain. a deep cut from the George Clinton / P-Funk oeuvre. not sure when I fell in love with this tune, but it’s one of those P-Funk songs I’m unlikely to hear out in the wild…
#ASongADay #MusicSky #Parliament #PresenceOfABrain #GeorgeClinton #PFunk
A Song A Day #268 Michael Jackson: Ain’t No Sunshine. I first heard MJ’s cover of the Bill Withers’ classic sometime in the early 2000s. I think my reaction was “wow! how have I not heard this before?!”

A Song A Day #266 The Turtles: Buzz Saw. a classic slice of #60s instrumental psychedelic pop featuring a heavy organ riff and seriously distorted bass. I believe I only stumbled across this within the last five years or so…
