This was a fun show for me to do. I had a great time finding songs - there were so many I left out! - which mentioned "take it easy" - seriously, I had a bevy of them from the 1930s to the present. Plus, my collaborators - you know, the funny people on the show - were totally on point. & best of all, local musician Jenny A from Owlsey County performed for the show a lovely cover of an Eagles song that I am now going to stop complaining about.
The irony, of course, is that so much work went into a show about taking it easy. I hope it showed. I felt pretty good after this one, which was a weird feeling for me. I thought I might have food poisoning or strep throat or something. I almost went straight to the emergency room.
But anyway, here it is, this week's show about taking it easy. That's a link to the show's website. Pay attention to password info, available in the paragraph above the show's playlist. Meanwhile, the songs I played are listed below.
The rest of the day, I think I'll just take it easy.
