It’s A Woodstock Bugapaloozin’ Dance Party on Prime Time Theme Attic, Monday Night, 8PM-10PM EDT!!!

There’s still plenty of summer left, but there’s also plenty of themes that I need to cover.

Woodstock turns 50 this week!

I’m not really crazy about some of the live recordings, but you can’t overlook the roster of performers and the general vibes from the event!

Also, I’ve noticed that it’s pretty much a race these days to get into the house before the bugs do when I go through a door. That’s as good a sign as any that’s it’s time for my annual “Bugapalooza” offering!

And, finally, it’s always time to have a dance party–even “hippie dancing!”

Throw in a “Top 9 at 9:09,” and you have this week’s “Prime Time Theme Attic” with Phil Maq, Monday night from 8PM-10PM EDT!!!

Songs by artists will include Kenny Parker BandDAVY KNOWLESRFACar CityJoanie Leeds & The NightlightsThe Music Lady (Beverly Meyer Music) (Her album cover for “Movin’ and Groovin'” is in the banner!), George Hertier, MJ Bishop, Lindsay LouCraig Moreau MusicSugar SnowSharon Goldman (Her cover for her brand new album “Every Trip Around the Sun” is in the banner!), Southern Culture on the SkidsJc & The DisciplesThe Rebel Set, Kim Robertson, Santana (Carlos Santana), Deep PurpleJefferson AirplaneJohn SebastianThe Simon Kennedy Band, and more!!!

Phil’s Faves: Albums, August 4, 2019

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, August 4, 2019

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!
