I’m everybody’s Uncle Marty here with The Award Winning 3D RadioActivity, and on the 510th chapter, we’ll get into our water logs with songs touching OCEANS LAKES, and SEAS in the titles, artists, and maybe a geographic location or two. We kept it wet on our nautical trip to the shores of the OCEANS LAKES, and SEAS. Join us […]
Song Of The Day – “Power Of My Love” by Elvis Presley
I vividly remember the day Elvis died. My too hip for the world sixteen year old friends and I realized that it was a big deal for some, but the Elvis fans we knew were so old and out of touch, that his passing wouldn’t have registered at all on our radar had it not […]
Song Of The Day – “At The Hop” by Danny & The Juniors
Three groups…three decades… three stories…one song! 1950s: Philadelphia school friends Danny Rapp, Dave White, Frank Maffei and Joe Terranova formed a group called The Juvenairs in 1957. They were discovered at a Record Hop by John Madara who changed their name to Danny & The Juniors and introduced them to local record label owner Artie […]

Song Of The Day – “Dancin’ Wild” by Tom & Jerry
Before “The Boy In The Bubble” and “Graceland”…before “50 Ways To Leave Your Lover” and “Me And Julio Down By The Schoolyard”…and before “Bridge Over Troubled Water” and “Sound Of Silence,” there was “Hey Schoolgirl” and a multitude of early recordings by the likes of Tom & Jerry, Jerry Landis, […]
Song Of The Day – “One Too Many Mornings” by Bob Dylan & Johnny Cash
Still a mystery to me why these recordings have never been officially released… The Dylan-Cash Sessions took place in Nashville’s Columbia Studio A on February 17-18, 1969 at the tail end of the Nashville Skyline recording sessions. During the same week that Dylan turned in such indelible recordings as “I Threw It All Away,” “Lay […]
Song Of The Day – “Soldier Of Love (Lay Down Your Arms)” by Arthur Alexander
He’s the only artist to be covered by the holy trinity of Elvis Presley, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan. Others who rushed to his deep well of first-rate copyrights included The Hollies, Ry Cooder, Pearl Jam, Ike & Tina Turner, Marshall Crenshaw, George Jones, Otis Redding, The Bee Gees, Humble Pie and […]
Song Of The Day – “Lady Madonna” by Fats Domino
Reprise Records was one of the labels to be on in the 1960s. What started out as the house that Frank Sinatra built, chock full of releases by his cronies like Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr., turned into Mo’s home when Sinatra sold the label to Warner Brothers in 1963, and Mo Ostin began […]

I’m your Uncle Marty, as The 3D RadioActivity gathers for our 495th get together as we’re Glad to be Rockin’ all OVER with you. A standard radio phrase from the detective’s handbook is OVER and OUT. Since we have managed to do the former this time for you, when we return we’ll see how many […]
