Beginnings & Endings

In this program Rob is joined by guest presenter Rachel, as they engage in the theme of Beginnings And Endings. Rachel begins with a very apt opening song by the Fifth Dimension Age of Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In. Rob presents three strong singers in Joan Baez: I Never Dreamed You’d Leave In Summer, Robin Gibb’s impressive performance of I Started A Joke and John Lennon’s sad posthumous hit (Just Like) Starting Over. Rachel contributes Fleetwood Mac’s popular Go Your Own Way and LGBTIQA+ Lesley Gore with her beginning and ending song Judy’s Turn to Cry. The Aussie contribution comes from the resilient Jo Jo Zep with Losing Game.

Longer Songs

In this program we feature songs that rarely get played simply because they are too long. Karen and Richard Carpenter departed from their usual style to produce/perform their magnum opus Calling Occupants Of Interplanetary Craft. Michael Jackson’s Don’t Stop Till You Get Enough and the Eagle’s Hotel California are two longer classics. Th highlight of the program is the entire eleven minutes and three parts from that great Aussie front man’s Stevie Wright and his epic Evie Parts 1, 2 and 3. The program concludes with one of The Beatle’s greatest Hey Jude.
