This blog post is hilarious. Give Marty a follow.

Diana was doing her solo thing but Jean Terrell stepped in and didn’t miss a beat on Up The Ladder To The Roof here on Sullivan. #motown #70smusic youtu.be/k66xMJEf-H0?...

Love American Style by The Cowsills. This version was played on the TV show for only the first year and was replaced by a lesser version by some random group. Such a well-written and mostly forgotten TV show on Friday nights and later syndication. #60smusic youtu.be/ee3P6K084zc?...

Things I’ve seen today: TikTok has banned the Musk movie account Meta/Facebook has banned No Kings It’s us vs SV Bro’s/Billionaires

Rose Colored Glasses with their cover of Orpheus' Can't Find The Time. It's not as good as the original (tall order) but they did a good job. Great memorabilia in the video. #70smusic youtu.be/UhJ3amOYa-Q?...

Gartner says that by 2030, 80% of neoclouds will have ceased operations, that AI data center owners would need to generate $8.5 trillion in revenue to cover the current spend and hit an ROIC of 12%, and that $4tr+ in assets face writedown risk by 2032. www.gartner.com/en/newsroom/...

I Got A Line On You covered by Blackfoot on the classic 1979 album Strikes. I saw them open for many rock bands in the day and they were usually better and always louder. #70smusic youtu.be/iRBqvZz1-zk?...

1965 David Ruffin featuring Melvin Franklin on background vocals. Motown perfection. youtu.be/HSgqO7LIFL8?... #60smusic #Motown

Wendy O climbing up a ladder onto a plane before it explodes off a cliff, doing pro wrestling, and demolishing a house with a bulldozer. It doesn’t get more creative and bad ass than this. #80smusic youtu.be/J3AJq_a8ETc?...

Baby Says No from Christopher Cross’ sophomore effort. Featuring outstanding background vocal by Carl Wilson. #80smusic #yachtrock #beachboys youtu.be/G3OWH6qiQsE?...

The Monkees TV show debuted 60 years ago today. Here’s one of my fave Monkees covers, Some of Shelley’s Blues written by Nesmith and performed by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. #70smusic #Monkees youtu.be/BXJiqKgl7BI?...

The Monkees TV show debuted on Sept 12, 1966. Here’s Micky singing and playing the Moog synthesizer on Daily Nightly that was written by Nesmith. The show concept and the group’s musical evolution is under appreciated by many. #60smusic #Monkees youtu.be/SCWRjWOowkc?...

A very young Sonny and Cher perform Just You on the Shivaree television show in 1965. So glad this moment in time was preserved. #60smusic youtu.be/nknOQGwhdUA?...

Happy heavenly birthday to the late, great Conway Twitty. In his honor I drove by the former Twitty City in Hendersonville #Tennessee on my way home from work today. #50smusic youtu.be/oZhPS8ZANZE?...

“We have spent the last 18 years describing the financial crisis as .. a black swan .. .. It was none of those things.” It was “the scheduled mathematical consequence of loans that assumed perpetual appreciation. .. The AI boom has rebuilt this exact structure.” www.groundbrkr.com/p/the-teaser...

Tommy James/Shondells have a legitimate claim to the title of King of Pop. 100 million records sold, 32 charting songs. Tommy played "You Got Me" on his SXM show yesterday and I had forgotten about this bubbling under song from 1980. Do the right thing Rock Hall! #80smusic youtu.be/O2rzEUvxzRQ?...

I Couldn’t Live Without Your Love. Sung by Petula, produced and arranged by Tony Hatch and I think they’re both still alive. British but not really British Invasion, pop perfection and great remix by Kenn Wingle. #60smusic youtu.be/ga65mHCuCR4?...

Change of Heart by Dennis Yost/Classics VI. Bubbling under in the summer of 1969. Surprised that it didn't chart but it was tough to get radio play in '69. #60smusic #AT40 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jpb-...

The Michael Des Barres show on Underground Garage is great radio. If you like a diverse set of rock and soul find a way to make it a part of your morning. #AT40

Chucky gets his ass kicked.

Go All Night by The Pat Travers Band. With the classic lineup of PT, Pat Thrall, Mars Cowling, and Tommy Aldridge. Love the Heat In The Street album cover. youtu.be/jXtSJI5RHnM?...

Nasty Dogs and Funky Kings from Fandango. This album was groundbreaking and takes no prisoners. RIP Dusty and Frank. #70smusic youtu.be/1__BAJ_vb80?...

Wasted $ unless you are in on the grift I suppose.

Fun project.

Letitgo by #Prince. Very under appreciated song from his last album before his name changed. #90smusic youtu.be/kj7Hk3oS_YQ?...

As we reflect on the tragedy 49 years ago today, here's the closing song from Elvis' December 1968 TV special. This led to a resurgence that reminded us all the he was still the one and only King! #Elvis #60smusic youtu.be/u-pP_dCenJA?...

Here's an aircheck of Dave Diamond doing his Diamond Mine show on the last night of KBLA AM in June '67. This is the best aircheck I've heard of a progressive free-form radio show from California during the Summer of Love. Part 2 is also on ReelRadio. #60smusic reelradio.ncbhp.com/audio-reel/d...

You’re The One by Petula. It’s probably not as good as The Vogues version but what’s cool is that she wrote the song presumably with Tony Hatch. Nobody could sing as cheerful and confidently as her. #60smusic youtu.be/zeukU-KOuMY?...

Happy #Elvis Week to those who celebrate! He was good in all eras but my favorite was the year or two after the December 1968 comeback special. Kentucky Rain co-written by future singer Eddie Rabbitt. #70smusic youtu.be/CsI1JjyK4rY?...

Wild West End from Dire Straits self-titled 1978 debut. One of the best records of #70smusic and it still sounds great 48 years later. youtu.be/T4Ad_J_2l0w?...

31st July 1969 - Elvis Presley kicked off a four week run at the Las Vegas International Hotel. It was his first live show since 1961 and he reportedly netted $1.5m for the shows. On the menu under the heading "An Elvis special" was polk salad with corn muffins & honey. #ElvisPresley

I didn't have this on my Bingo card.

RIP Cass. Your musical legacy is still going strong.
