I’m going back to the 50s for a bit of energy. Chuck was a genius. So glad I got to see him perform. Amazing.

Today’s Music to keep me SssSsaAaanNNnNEeee in Isolation – Donovan – Fairytale
Donovan’s second album – a widening of his style with a lot of jazz influence. A lot of great antiwar songs – Buffy St Marie and Bert Jansch. I was sixteen and I loved this album.
My Favourite Rand B male vocal groups from the fifties and Sixties
I make a distinction between Doo-wop and male vocal groups. I’ll deal with Doo-wop separately.

The Contours
The Drifters
The Coasters
The Platters
The Dominoes
The Midnighters
The Clovers
The Miracles
Isley Brothers
Four Tops
Argyles
Cadillacs
Hollywood Argyles

Today’s Music to keep me SsSssaaaAnnnNNEeeE in Isolation – Don and Dewey
Another act in the Little Richard style. A real power duo. They did the original version of Farmer John. Precursors of Soul (just listen to I’m Leaving It All Up To you).

Today’s Music to keep me SsSAAaANNnnEeEe in Isolation – Lou Reed – Transformer
Quite an acerbic character – but a great album. I think I still prefer the Vevet Underground though.

Randy’s satirical lyrics and intelligence will give something to think about. Love it.
