I have started a new feature: The Most Awesomest Song of the Day!
Here’s a link to the complete list: https://philmaq.com/most-awesomest-songs/
I want to emphasize mostly, relatively newer music, just like on my Monday night show, “Prime Time Theme Attic.” (Monday nights 8PM-10PM ET when it returns.)
Here’s the link for when that day comes: http://rdo.fm/r/4qntu )
But I can promise this: I will not force my selections. If something doesn’t hit me, I won’t post one.
Everything I do has always been about shining a spotlight on the artist and their music.
Now I will have the potential to shine 365 more spotlights if I want to!

It was one year ago today, that I met a musical hero of mine. He played on, and wrote some of the greatest music of all time–guitarist Denny Laine [Hall of Fame]!
The adventure started a couple of weeks earlier, April 24, when I was lucky enough to interview him on my morning “Theme Attic” show.
Denny was coming into town for a show at The Magic Bag to play the complete “Band on the Run” album, as well as some early songs by The Moody Blues.
It was a fun 45 minute interview! He had just been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and was open to talking about anything including former band mates Ginger Baker and Paul McCartney [Hall of Fame].
Fast forward a couple of weeks later, Denny remembered me from the interview and asked me to introduce the band for his show!
Now, I’m smart enough to know that no one remembers the person who introduces the artist at a show.
But I do!
It was a great show and the band played everything including the strangely weird to hear live, “Picasso’s Last Words,” maracas and all!
Here’s one of my favorites from “Band on the Run,”–a very underrated song that Denny said he pretty much wrote 90% of!
The Most Awesomest Song of the Day is “No Words” by Wings with Denny Laine!!! [Hall of Fame]
