ROCKOLLECTIONS

I heard myself say something just before the break, and that was enough to make me think of a Song, run around and find it and play it.That's the Freedom of Free-Form Radio!Then a Loose Wheel rolled by, lol!But I finally did get to Circles Songs!Among them a Question, a Cut from an old forgotten album that was made up of then Unreleased Bob Dylan Songs, a Song you should know but may never have heard Live, and one of my all-time favorite Circles Songs -- I just Love it, and was a joy to hear!That's it, but that's plenty!Let's meet here again next week for the Final Two Chapters!

Mike

It's more Circles.This all started with the New Year, that Going Around The Calendar, and the possibilities are almost endless.I'll pick it up where we left off with Wheels.This time, Wheels as a concept, then Wheels of a more Mechanical Kind.I am not Re-Inventing The Wheel here, lol!It's just a nice Mixed Bag of Music.Give a listen!

Mike

I haven’t played any Songs with Circles in the titles yet, I thought I’d save them for the Closing Chapters of this Series.Whenever that may be, it’s my call- I’ll know when I’ve pushed it far enough, lol!But I’ll make an exception with the opening tune here, and it’s simply called Circles.What is not simple is all the legal wrangling that came with this Song from 1966, sometimes annoyingly typical of Rock & Roll!We’ll listen to a few other Songs, and then it is on to the Next Category for Things That Go Around In A Circular Motion.I’ll give you a Hint: it may be The First Great Invention!

Mike

Since the New Year it has been a Circles Theme.And you may feel like a Spinning Top.But there are a lot of places we can go with this.I don't like to give too much away, I enjoy the element of surprise too much.So for Things Going Around In A Circular Motion, this one needs No Introduction!However I should issue a Warning- Not Responsible For Any Injuries- you're on your own, lol!Give a listen, I got a FUN one here!

Mike

I said at the break I’d lay down on the couch, and the expected happened.I fell asleep until the Alarm woke me up, lol!Which brings us to our next stop along the way for Things That Go Around In Circles- The Clock!I’ll have a fondly remembered by New Yorker's TV Theme Song in here.And some Songs with Ticking Clocks in them!We’ll tick from one to the other.Join me, this turned out well!

Mike

Inspired by the New Year that Circles around with Days, Weeks, Months, Seasons and of course Years, I am Rolling Around with Circles!Rolling Around Every Corner!What Goes Around Comes Around, and in this severe NYC Cold we can use some Love Radiating Around- some Firewood would help too!Then I will get to another thing that is Circular and Goes Around.You’ll know it, you probably wear one!All these Circles made me Dizzy, so I had to lay down on the couch for the break.Have a listen, I even played Hits!

Mike

It’s a New Year and a New Series, with Circles!Now where was I?Oh I remember, the World Turning.After that, one of my Favorite Things That Goes Round & Round!Another real Mixed Bag in here, spanning the 1930‘s To 2000‘s, but there are those of us who like that.Ending with a Song I had been meaning to play in 2018 concerning a certain Mr. Mouse’s Birthday.Although it really has nothing to do with Circles, I was able to contort myself to somehow find a connection, lol!90 Circles Around The Calendar good enough?More next week as those 7 Days Circle Around Again!Kindly give a listen, we are just getting started!

Mike

Hey, did you know the Earth rotates- spins Around in a Circle to make a Day?And not only that, but Circles The Sun to make a New Year- why wasn’t I informed, lol?Well that Circling to make New Days and New Years was the inspiration for a new Series on Circles!And we will go Around & Around together to start.That’s the Umbrella Idea!And as always in a Series there will be Categories for What Are Some Of The Things That Go Around In Circles?My first choice will be the Biggest in terms of how it affects us, but we are not at all necessary.Join me, as I Run Circles Around You!

Mike

This is the wrap-up for the Annual Christmas Party this year.Sorry I left out something for Hanukkah, it is usually in tandem with Christmas but not this year- it slipped by me.Thought I'd stick with Santa Claus for the majority of this closing Chapter.Until the end, where I have chosen a couple where The Message Is In The Music!I sincerely wish you all the Merriest Of Christmases!And God Bless Us Every One!

Mike

It's Week 2 of the all-inclusive, everybody's invited Rockollections Christmas Party.What you believe doesn't matter, I don't care, it's a Party!We just had the First Day Of Winter, and I couldn't let that go by without playing a few Winter beauties!Then the matter of Children Believing In Santa Claus.And finally, the little known subject of How Good Santa Boogies, and How Often, lol!Have fun with this one!
