Phil’s Faves: Songs, February 3, 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 shows, “Theme Attic,” heard Wednesdays, 10A-12N ET, or “Prime Time Theme Attic,” heard Mondays, 8P-10P 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 alternating weeks, along with my “Phil’s Faves, Albums” lists!

The 2019 Winter New Music Showcase Pt. 1, Monday Night, 8PM-10PM EST!!!

Since December 17th, I have only done one live Monday night show.

Holidays and school closings are the reasons.

And even though I play music on every show that I’ve never played before, I am going crazy with the delays. I had planned to do my 2019 Winter New Music Showcase a couple of weeks ago.

I’m tired of waiting.

I’m also getting gun shy about tempting fate to finish up the Philbys. We’ll see if that happens on Wednesday, but I’m not placing any bets on it happening. And if it doesn’t…Well, next week already has a “love” theme. You can see how this may play out.

Regardless, I haven’t done a “Top 9 at 9:09” in two months! That ends on tonight’s “Prime Time Theme Attic” with Phil Maq from 8PM-10PM EST!!!

Songs by artists on tonight’s show should include DarlingsideDON ARBOR (His album cover for “Everyone Comes From Somewhere” is in the lower right corner of the banner.), Robert PlantTransit MethodBill Grogan’s Goat (Their album cover for “Third Eye” is in the left corner of the banner.), LotusDan Sheehan’s Tales from Earth IncorporatedVent du nord شرش(Their album cover for “Territories” is third from the left in the banner.), Shawn Adam WilliamsGrant Maloy SmithJoe Peters & Friends (The Joedai Warriors album cover for “So It Goes’ is second from left in the banner.), WET ASHESDos SantosThe Wag (Their album cover for “We Carry On” is second from the right in the banner.), Mel Graham MusicOneAchordWeather McNabb (The album cover for “Cubicle Zombie” is third from the right in the banner.), GROK ROCK Radio Show with Carmen Castro & Elliot SchneiderTurkuazJoel Schwelling Music, Donny Brown (Futureman Records), Joseph Veloz with Joey Spina Music,  The Empty PocketsThe Pandys, and The Voice of Action!!!

Come on 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 Pt.1 Winter Showcase link : https://whfr.fm/streamer/ (Press the “Listen Live Now” button), or use TuneIn Player or RadioFM to stream it.

Phil’s Faves: Albums, January 27, 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 alternating weeks, along with my “Phil’s Faves, Songs” lists!

They may also turn up on my “Theme Attic Show,” (Wednesdays, 10A-12N ET)

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.

Philby’s Postponed Again! Not Sure About the Rescheduled Date.

The Philby Award

This is pretty late, but I’ve been busy.

HFC was closed again today, so the station is closed and the final Philbys are postponed again.

However, day does not follow night this time, because I have something else scheduled for Wednesday.

So they will be pushed back into February.
