Today’s selection answers the musical question “what if Stevie Winwood had signed on with a hard rock band?”. Singer Kenny Stewart is a vocal dead ringer for Mr. Winwood, but his backing by guitarist John Fraser Binnie, bass player Terry Horbury and drummer John Lee sounds more like AC/DC than Traffic. Formed in 1974 in England, the band released 3 albums on Polydor, starting with the eponymous debut from whence today’s song comes from, and toured in support of some of the biggest hard rock acts of the mid-70s, but never graduated to headliner status. They did become very popular in South Texas of all places, thanks to radio play and at least one tour stop there, but did not get much radio support elsewhere. Unfortunately their recordings never matched the intensity of their live show, and they broke up in 1977 after the release of their third album “Hit & Run”. Some sources indicate that they re-formed and released an album of new material in 2009, but by then the magic was long gone.

We have been practicing physical distancing by staying ALONE with you this time, as we pray that this health crisis will STOP soon, so we will haltingly play QUARANTUNES which feature that that inaction verb or noun on our next assemblage. It could be cease, desist, or discontinuation while it also might refer to a door blockage, bus, or truck break point. Tell me your suggestions by sending email, or with a message on our Facebook page which has links to the archives of all the earlier episodes and graphics in the photo section. Look for us on Denver’s MileHiRadio, Theacidflashback.com, http://www.villageconnectionmagazine.com/ Long Island, New York, TuneIn and InternetFM dot com, because the best FM radio is now on the Internet.

3D Quarantunes
I’m your Uncle Marty, welcome to our 531st presentation. At the time we assembled this one, the world is gripped in a health crisis where many places require all to wear facemasks to prevent the spread of cooties, with enforceable fines of $1,000, maybe more. Frequent handwashing is advised, keeping a distance from others is encouraged, so if you feel the need to reach out and touch someone, do it via the phone an online meeting, or just turn up the volume, and pour a glass of your favorite libation to stay hydrated. The Award Winning 3D RadioActivity is doing it’s part by playing QUARANTUNES, and going nowhere, so c’mon along! 🎼 🎶 😎

We’ve been listening to QUARANTUNES, there’s a lot of great ones that we didn’t squeeze in this time. We’ll have to wait for part two for more of ’em which may be sooner than later because of the virus. Remember to be a little nicer to your neighbors as we are all in this together, as we all do our best to physically distance ourselves from others, so STAY & ALONE will be our focus coming up. Tell me your thoughts via email email, or with a message on our Facebook page which has links to the archives of all the earlier episodes and graphics in the photo section.

3D Radio Fever
I’m still your Uncle Marty, this is The Award Winning 3D RadioActivity segment # 529.

In today’s reality, symptoms can include: Tiredness; Aches; Sniffles; Sore throat and an elevated temperature. Stay tuned as we present musical strains on the latter from our files about FEVER. 😎

RadioActive W8
I’m your Uncle Marty, this is The Award Winning 3D RadioActivity‘s 526th voyage to the tympanic cavity and ossicles. While tones have no physical mass, they do exhibit melodic and lyrical properties. On this feature, we will relate to the force acting on an object, either due to gravity or to a reaction that holds it in place. If you put 24 zeros after a six, it will give you the rough tonnage of the earth, audibly The WEIGHT Of The World sounds something like this.

3D W8
I’m Uncle Marty, this is The Award Winning 3D RadioActivity, number 525, and on this chapter our featured focus is one of lingering expectations, as some can, or can’t, will or won’t for a while or a day to come, as like last week, you are not alone, as I will personally going to WAIT with you. 😎

The words WAIT and WEIGHT are homonyms, that sound alike but have different meanings. We have been checking out the first one, both The noun, referring to the time spent, and the verb to stay in place until something else happens. The second identifies a measure of heaviness or to an object used to hold something down, and that’s where we will find ourselves next time.
