(clip Groucho and Thelma)
Spring songs are in the air, and spun from vinyl. Hope Record Store Day was good to you. Th esweet
season is shere--let's live it up. I'm PC and this is the VE
Gabor Szabo: Spring Song
Simon & Garfunkel: April Come She Will
The VE with spring songs--Simon and Garfunkel sing of the changing seasons in "April Come She Will,"
and Gabor Szabo's jazz classic from abnout the same time, "Spring Song." Talk Talk's 1986 album The
Colour Of Spring featured an arresting album cover of multicolored moths, and a reflective downbeat
collection of songs including this one, "April 5th."
Talk Talk: April 5th
Rickie Lee Jones: Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most
The VE with Spring Songs...the American Songbook is packed with them..."April In Paris,"It Might As Well
be Spring,"Spring Is Here,"...Rickie Lee Jones put her unique spin on standards in 1991 on the LP Pop
Pop...we heard her moody readin gof "Spriing Can Really Hang You Up the Most." Okay, time to really
class up the show with--The Butthole Surfers....a spirng song?! This one was given away first as a free
flexi-disc...it's the first of a couple or sort-of-sprinig-songs, by some rough characters
Butthole Surfers: Lonesome Bulldog
The Pogues: Dirty Old Town
The VE with Spring songs...mnaly yes, but I like it too...it's an Irish Spring with The Pogues from the Elvis
Costello-produced Rum, Sodomy and The Lash, and "Dirty Old Town."
Spring is a short season up in Minnesots where The Jayhawks still turn their collar to the cold and damp. If
April is the cruelest month, they capture that grey-sky feel on the album Tommorow The Green Grass, and
"See Him On The Street."
The Jayhawks: See Him On the Street
Ritchie Havens Here Comes The Sun
The VE, with the promise of spring, from Richie Havens, and The Jayhawks
(break)
It's spring songs, and now the trees are almost green...The Yardbirds, to begin a few from spring, in the
sixties...
The Yardbirds: Shapes Of Things
Rolling Stones: Dandellion
Stevie Wonder: I Was Made To Love Her
The VE with Spring songs, and blossoms blooming...The Rolling Stones picking Dandellions, and the scent
of magnolia, with Stevie Wonder....and The Grateful Dead....
Grateful Dead: Sugar Magnolia
Van Morrison: Starting A New Life
Foo Fighters: This Will Be Our Year
Dou you say that every spring? maybe this time it sticks. The Foo Fighters doing The Zombies' "This Will
Be Our Year," from last April's Record Store Day Release Medium rare...and Van Morrison on Tupelo
Honey, and "Starting A New Life."
Spring songs on the VE...for the blessing of the new season, there's always something lost as well....
Led Zeppelin: The Rain Song
Billie Holiday: I Get Along Without You Very Well
And that's the VE. To sound off an hour of spring songs....Billie Holiday...and Led Zeppelin.
