Sacred Rose Festival 2022
The festival grounds were located adjacent to the SeatGeek stadium, the former home of the Chicago Fire. There was lots of room to walk around, as well as sitting and standing areas were plentiful in and around the stages. The festival grounds featured some cool spaces, such as the rainbow of giant hammocks, a mirror maze, and a mock up of a pirate ship that offers scenic views of the festival grounds. The three music stages were The Canopy, as…
Concert Review – The Beths at Thalia Hall
Eric Leventhal also contributed to this story. New Zealand quartet The Beths played two sold-out shows at Chicago’s Thalia Hall this weekend. The second show was added due to overwhelming demand. We arrived at the venue shortly before doors opened, and the line was around the block. The Beths are comprised of Elizabeth Stokes on lead vocals and rhythm guitar, her co-founder Jonathan Pearce on lead guitar, plus Benjamin Sinclair playing…
An Interview with Mamalarky
Recently, we went downtown to catch a show at Schuba’s Tavern. The headliner act, Mamalarky, is incredibly hard to pin down. They have elements of Indie Rock, and of Psychedelic Pop, but don’t fit neatly into either genre. There’s a wondrous, captivating thread of Avant Garde that weaves in and out of their music, stitching together the lush vocals, rocking rhythms, and jazzy chord progressions. I discovered them in October, and…
The Al Stewart Interview
There are so few songwriters who can truly create word pictures or incorporate complex subjects into their songs. Cat Stevens, Paul Simon, Donald Fagen, and Bernie Taupin come to mind. Perhaps John Lennon or Bruce Springsteen as story tellers. But if you want someone else who absolutely belongs on that lofty list, look no further than Al Stewart. The Scottish-born, England-raised singer-songwriter may have had only two charted hits, “Year of…

Why We Don’t Play Christmas Music on Christmas Anymore
You can’t escape it. On the radio, in the stores, at the airport and train stations. Christmas music, it’s everywhere. Sometimes, right after Thanksgiving, or even earlier these days. But not on Acid Flashback radio. How did that come to be? December 24, 1977, a Saturday, was my first ever day on the air. I…

Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Sabre Dance” by Woody Herman & His Second Herd

This recording is from 1948 performed by big band leader, clarinetist,…

Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Little Latin Lupe Lu” by The Righteous Brothers
Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield were best known for their smooth blue-eyed soulful sounds as The Righteous Brothers performing heartfelt ballads. But they could rock out too as evidenced by this Bill Medley original that was not only a hit for them (#47/1963) but also The Kingsmen (#49/1964) and Mitch Ryder & The Detroit Wheels…
