Spirit in the Sky on Northshore 104.9 at 12:33 PM today, April 20, 2011.
Norman Greenbaum gets played frequently at APPLEBEES in his hometown of Malden...it's great hearing his voice as you enter or leave the restaurant on one of their satellite channels. Great place to chat with people right outside of Malden center in the Stop & Shop Plaza...
Lots going on...
did you see in U.S.A. Today that the Grateful Dead have a 72 CD boxed set coming out on their 1972 tour! http://www.usatoday.com/life/music/news/2011-04-20-deadeurope20_st_N.htm
You can make your own boxed set with all the free Grateful Dead downloads on Archive.org http://www.archive.org/details/GratefulDead
Go figure...though I respect and can appreciate their vast catalog of work, there are only specific tracks by the group that I like to listen to repeatedly...the Janis Joplin guest appearances or their covers of The Beatles and The Rolling Stones... The tour listing is on jambands http://www.jambands.com/news/2011/04/07/grateful-dead-europe-72-revisited/
Rather than put the links into the name of the group I post the full links here so you can cut and paste to your hearts content.

The JoeVigTop40's PICK TO CLICK this month is the CD from the New York band THE GODZ entitled E L E V E M
Listen to the tracks on the MySpace posted above.
This is the original E.S.P. recording artist from New York City, not the latter day Chicago hard rock ensemble utilizing the same name (with the same spelling!)
With a cosmic energy that seems to have been taking from the tracks of The Velvet Underground's "Train Comin' Round The Bend" (review in progress...stay tuned)
