Phil’s Faves: Albums, September 29, 2019

Posted on October 3, 2019 by PhilMaq

Over time, my listening habits have changed and at the moment I usually listen to albums completely through. I haven’t done that in years, but it’s actually very rewarding—particularly when the album is good. Every album that will be on this list will fit that category.

Songs from the albums on this list forms the basis of my countdown list for the “Top 9 at 9:09” segment of my “Prime Time Theme Attic Show,” (Mondays, 8P-10P ET) on mostly alternating weeks, along with my “Phil’s Faves, Songs” lists!

Here’s a link:

It’s another peak into my listening habits—which is a goal of mine. If you want to know where I’m heading or what I think about some new music, you will find it here.

I honestly don’t expect there to be much volatility on this list because these albums are what I have been basing many of the sets on my show.

Once again, there will be no boundaries. I will go wherever my musical muse takes me.

Phil’s Faves: Songs, September 29, 2019

Posted on October 2, 2019 by PhilMaq

This is a weekly Top Ten list of what I consider to be the best songs that I listened to the previous week. Most songs will be current, but there are no boundaries. I’ve already stated on this web site that I am obsessed with music. I am constantly hunting it down whether it’s online, on CD, from my personal collection, from a library (Yes, I think the library is a great source of music–especially for music that you aren’t sure about.), TV, or radio. Since most of these sources mostly emphasize new music, the odds are pretty good that most of the songs on this list will be new. But in my search, I don’t use any boundaries for the other sources. I am just looking for good music that I haven’t heard, or happened to forget about. Everyone, including myself, has forgotten way more great music than they can ever remember-even if they are also music fanatics.

Also, there will be no rules concerning songs on this list. A song can show up or drop off a number of times. This will be the most volatile of my lists. It all depends on how much music I am exposed to during the week and what I find interesting. On really obscure stuff, I will try to include the source, if I know it.

Most of the songs heard on this list have been played on my radio show, “Prime Time Theme Attic,” heard Mondays, 8PM-10PM ET!

This list forms the basis of my countdown list on the “Top 9 at 9:09” segment of my “Prime Time Theme Attic Show” on mostly alternating weeks, along with my “Phil’s Faves, Albums” lists!

Peace and Climate Change on Prime Time “Theme Attic,” Monday Night, 8PM-10PM EDT!!!

Posted on September 23, 2019 by PhilMaq

I have to admit that prospects for peace appear to be shrinking by the second.

It’s even becoming difficult for me to stay positive.

I try really hard to see the good in all people, but that approach is being severely tested right now.

However, the recent world wide climate strike sparks renewed hope! So, as I have done annually since I’ve had my radio show, I will try to do my little part to support International Day of Peace on Monday night’s “Prime Time Theme Attic” with Phil Maq from 8PM-10PM EDT!!!

But there are a couple of realistic songs about today’s world, too.

There will also be a “Top 9 at 9:09” of this week’s Fave albums!

Songs by artists on tonight’s show will include Angela Perley, NOFX, Sugar Snow, M.J. Bishop, Mike Gentry Music, Paul McCartney, Vegas Strip Kings, The Joedai Warriors (Joe Peters & Friends)(The album cover for “Clouds Thick, Whereabouts Unknown” is on the left in the banner.), The Cordial Sins, Seth Swirsky, Seth Bernard, Tommy Sands (His album cover for “Fair Play to You All” is the album in the middle in the banner.), John Evans Band, Nick Juno music, Brant Bjork (He is appearing at The Magic Bag this Thursday! The album cover for “Jalamanta” is on the right in the banner.), Joseph Veloz, Erin Zindle & The Ragbirds (They play The ARK this Friday! Dick Siegel, Jc & The Disciples (They play Cadieux Cafe this Saturday!), Jillian Rae, Sarah McQuaid, Samantha Fish, and probably more!!!

Invite an estranged friend to listen and make up, come along for the ride, and tune in to 89.3 FM (89.3 WHFR.FM) in the Dearborn-Detroit area, stream it anywhere in the world with this special paxful link : https://whfr.fm/streamer/ (Press the “Listen Live Now” button), or use TuneIn Player or RadioFM to stream it.
