2017: The Best of Interviews Show, “Mid Day Theme Attic,” Wednesday, 2PM-4PM ET!!!

I used to give a shout out to loyal listener Helen on my show. Well, Helen, my mother-in-law, passed away last Saturday, so I have to change my show schedule. However, in the spirit of WHFR’s “best of” week, and since Helen became fans of many of the artists I played and interviewed, I am hastily putting together a “best of” show of this year’s interview moments! It will jump around, so you’ll have to pay attention, but what a stellar line up!!! I was truly blessed to have such GREAT interview opportunities!

No less than five artists debuted their new albums on both my “Prime Time Theme Attic” Show on Mondays, from 8PM-10PM ET, and “Theme Attic” on Wednesdays from 10A-12 Noon ET!!!

There will be highlights from Jean-Luc Ponty, Greg Kihn, Dave Caruso Music, Wendy Webb, Bobby Pennock, Windborne, Dirty Bourbon River Show, Steven C Lyman of SRC, Bark’s Wagon Tales (Michael Snyder-Barker), Michael on Fire, The Whiskey Charmers, Ed Dupas, David Roof, The Garden of Soul, and last and certainly NOT least Judy Banker!!!

This is NOT the running order of the interview, since I haven’t even put it together yet. But I thank all of my participating artists for making my show better than it was!!!

Tune in on Wednesday afternoon, after “Afternoon Jazz” with Mr. Jags (12 Noon-2PM), to “Mid Day Theme Attic” with Phil Maq from 2PM-4PM ET!!! You can find it at 89.3FM in the Dearborn-Detroit area, Tune in Player, or with this special “Mid Day Interview” streaming link: http://whfr.fm/images/stream_audio.html Please share freely, but when you repost this, copy and paste my comments section in your comments section, so that everyone will know what you’re talking about!

Phil’s Faves: Albums, December 17, 2017

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!

There’s also a new “Top 9 at 3:09” on Wednesday afternoons on my “Mid Day Theme Attic Show” from 2p-4P ET that does the list that wasn’t featured on “Prime Time Theme Attic that week! (Whew!)

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

Here’s a link:

Listen live: www.whfr.fm/images/stream_audio.html

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, December 17, 2017

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!

There’s also a new “Top 9 at 3:09” on Wednesday afternoons on my “Mid Day Theme Attic Show” from 2p-4P ET that does the list that wasn’t featured on “Prime Time Theme Attic that week! (Whew!)
