Phil’s Faves: Albums, July 21, 2019

Posted on July 27, 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:

https://whfr.fm/streamer/

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, July 21, 2019

Posted on July 26, 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!

Ed Dupas and Annie Bacon on Prime Time Theme Attic, Monday Night 8PM-10PM EDT!!!!

Posted on July 22, 2019 by PhilMaq

The weather sure has been strange…AND HOT!

It was so hot that Henry Ford College shut down the whole campus where WHFR is to conserve energy for everybody else–quite an unselfish move!

However, that meant that Ed Dupas and Annie Bacon, who are each releasing brand new albums this week, as well as performing at the release party at The Blind Pig A2 in Ann Arbor this Thursday, June 25th, would not be able to visit with DJ Jonathan Weigel on his Sunday “Songwriter Symposium program.

Well, shucks, that doesn’t seem fair.

So I figured the next best thing to do was to move the party including Jonathan to Monday night’s “Prime Time Theme Attic” with Phil Maq from 8PM-10PM EDT!!! They’ll be on after this week’s “Top 9 at 8:09″ Album Countdown!!!”

Songs by other artists on the show will include Last Import, Diana Chittester, Kenny Parker Band with Jim McCarty and Dan Devins, Car City, The Rallies, Craig Moreau Music, The Forty Nineteens, The Turnback, Lindsay Lou, Sugar Snow, and Hoodang!!!

Invite a friend to listen, 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 always changing lonesome side of town link : https://whfr.fm/streamer/ (Press the “Listen Live Now” button), or use TuneIn Player or RadioFM to stream it.
