Music Talk: 22 March

Yes, it’s over a month old. It’s been a busy month.  It’s not Jim’s fault — it’s definitely Aaron’s.  That said, before everything got busy, we did try to get another show in before job change chaos ensued.  We did it on William Shatner Day. We were set up to include our first guest on the show, Brian — who couldn’t make it at the last minute.  We also did it while imbibing. Listen to the silly ramblings at your peril.

This week’s mix comes from a tender spot as two longtime friends seem to be drifting apart and my heart and thoughts go out to both of them. I think they could use a good cry, so if they’re listening, I hope this brings them to the same table so they can work out what’s going down. And since I’m feeling all emo, I’ll share some favorite cry-it-out tunes from O.A.R., Jude Cole, Indigo Girls, Genesis, Hüsker Du, Pearl Jam, Coldplay, Crowded House, Del Amitri, Thomas Dolby, The Verve, Aimee Mann, Imogen Heap and Elliott Smith. Listen and make sure you give (and get) a hug.
