‘m your Uncle Marty, this is chapter 478 of The 3D RadioActivity, with an adventure we’re going to call “ORDINARY JOES” on Steve C’s recommendation for some.

I’m your Uncle Marty to children of all ages, this is The 3D RadioActivity‘s 477th adventure. Friend and fan Bernie gave me the suggestion to play “offspring” music as our theme, and as the past two episodes have shown, there are plenty to go around the turntable a third time. Listen closely as we feature a few of […]
Boogi3D All Over
I’m your Uncle Marty as The 3D RadioActivity unleashes our 471st experience. We’ve been going crazy playing BOOGIE from the cradle to the crypt, because it’s a mighty short trip, when all of us crawled on our hands and knees, forward to present day because even if you’re old and grey, and hear a boogie, it melts your troubles away.

Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Half A Man” by Willie Nelson

The arrangement was standard for Nashville at the time with heaping helpings of strings and anonymous […]
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Delia’s Gone” by Johnny Cash
Stark, stately and positively harrowing is this murder ballad from Johnny Cash’s first Rick Rubin-produced “American Recordings” album from 1994. The song stems from the actual murder of Delia Green by Moses “Cooney” Houston which took place in Savannah, Georgia in 1900. Both the victim and the murderer were 14 years old and had been […]
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “He’s My Baby” by Jean Shepard
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “He’s My Baby” by Jean Shepard There was an interesting time during the late 1950s where straight Country and Western music melded with then-burgeoning Rock ‘n’ Roll and Rhythm ‘n’ Blues, giving birth to a new form of music called Rockabilly. Capitol records was a hotbed for […]
