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!

Let’s change lanes and listen to a brand new Holiday song!
Taken from a tune written by Tommy Barbarella and jazz singer Erin Boehme, “I Believe” is a song that can literally drag you from whatever doldrums you might be experiencing, and fill your heart with joy and love!
Tommy has also assembled a small village of participants to deliver the message’s song, while he lays down a nice organ bed to accompany them!
It’s a bright free flowing smooth jazzy/pop effort highlighted with the ever soulful vocals of gospel singer Tonia Hughes Kendrick!
Trumpeter Charles Lazarus brings the right amount of pizazz to the festivities!
The wonderment of innocence is introduced by a sweet children’s choir!
They all bring the Christmas lyrics to life:
“THE GREATEST GIFT THAT WE CAN GIVE/
IS PEACE ON EARTH SO WE MAY LIVE TOGETHER/
JUST THINK WHAT WE COULD BE!
OF ANYTHING WE COULD WANT OR NEED/
IT’S ALREADY HERE IN YOU AND ME/
HOPE IS ALIVE IN US!
HAND IN HAND, THIS CHRISTMAS I BELIEVE!”
Nice support from the rhythm section of Jeff Bailey on bass, Daryl Boudreaux on percussion, and David Schmalenberger on drums!
A special shout out goes to Dave Mehling, who did an exceptional job on constructing the video!
I particularly like the instrumental reprise at the end of the song that allows everyone to get deserved individual attention!
This is both a gorgeously beautiful song and video!
The Most Awesomest Song of the Day is “I Believe” by Charles Lazarus with Tonia Hughes Kendrick!!! (Written by Tommy Barbarella and Erin Boehme!!!)
