Planting Seeds #036
October 19, 2026

On the eve of the 2016 election I clearly remember sitting in front of my home studio computer in Maryland. Not even a decade ago, but feels like a distant memory today. Especially considering the life changing personal/professional upheaval and perhaps moreso, the upside down reality of life here in the USA during the final stretch of 2026. I wrote this that evening. I still stand by those words. Now back in my home state of New Jersey, ironically a stone’s throw from Atlantic City, where the fetid excuse for a human exposed his true nature. Apparently not enough fellow citizens were paying attention. I cling to optimism that more than enough of us have our eyes wide open now. Justice would be a Mussolini type send off, but I’ll settle for a regular old perp walk… for the entire crew of thieving miscreants.

As I have stated more than once, Music has been my savior from the de-evolution and madness and it’s still working. We’ve had quite a stretch of very solid and inspiring new sounds lately, and thankfully it continues. This episode is packed with new goodies from EELS, The Decemberists, Robert Plant, Arab Strap, Imperial Teen, Fontaines D.C., The Rolling Stones, Robin Trower, Todd Thibaud, Son Volt, Richard Thompson, Bruce Cockburn, Kristin Hersh, Bonnie "Prince" Billy, The Silos, Hiss Golden Messenger, Josh Rouse and even Jimi Hendrix.The library was kind enough to contain things from Warren Zevon, Charles Bradley, Terry Callier, Echo & The Bunnymen, Ray Charles, Paul Rodgers, Isaac Hayes, Alejandro Escovedo, John Martyn, The Fugs and a ton of others to help bring everything into focus.

Let’s keep our chins to the sky and get out the silent masses to vote, while we still possess the right. Thanks for listening and your outstanding support of this program. Love to all.
