I have decided to create a weekly musical selection called. L'AMOUR EST BLEU. Musi'c will range from early 1900's vaudeville, ragtime and burlesque in the blues tradition to the present... please do provid e suggestions especially for new music.. I hope you will enjoy...
2-28-11 Update on L'Amour est Bleu: I promised to feature a daily show but realized that it would be most effective if presented weekly... This revealation was made apparent while doing research for the first show. The purpose is to create a thematic wave of music such as several versions of the same song by the same artist but at different times in their career... the example that first comes to mind is Billie Holidays, "Ms Brown"... I have been looking for a very hot ragtime version she recorded sometime in the late 30's or early 40's... I had it on cassette years ago... I do have the original vinyl but it is deep in storage now.... please check my facebook page for updates to my vinyl collection, I have featured pictoral shots of the record and album covers along with a brief description of the artists and date... no where near complete but it does take time to shoot and upload... I also realized the need to do a seperate show specifically to showcase blues... I have not come up with a name for the show yet but am open to suggestions...
