Song Of The Day: May 11, 2018
There was a time in the late ’70’s to mid-eighties when, IMHO, the Neville Brothers were the best band in America. Here, they bring their Caribbean lilt to John Hiatt’s ‘Washable Ink’:

Bonnie Raitt just tears up this John Hiatt song. Betcha you’ve heard it before:
Song Of The Day: May 8, 2018
I get to delay my decision–John Hiatt or Memphis–for at least one more day. Because, when it comes to Memphis, there is only one King. Today, you’re ridin’ with him. BTW, if you don’t like this, move to Russia:
Song Of The Day: May 7, 2018
I can go one of two ways this week–Memphis-themed songs, or songs by John Hiatt. Haven’t decided yet:

La Somnambula’s sign-off song comes from…the sylvan burg of Ardentown. Richard Julian, a great songwriter, who has written for Norah Jones and has performed with Bonnie Raitt, Marshall Crenshaw and many others. This may well be my fave of his:

La Somnambula‘s Day 3 choice is a great one: Like a lot of people, I saw the documentary film Paradise Lost and was deeply affected by the plight of the West Memphis Three. I wrote this song with Jimmy Bruno. The State of Arkansas seems to be in no hurry to publicly admit to the […]
‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes For April, 2018: Part One
Best musical month of the year by far. So I divided this feature up into two parts with the songs organized in alphabetical order by title. BTW, Kamasi Washington’s ‘Fists Of Fury’ belongs here, but I could only find a one-minute snippet on Youtube. Well worth checking out, though. Time for some music: I want […]
