By 1972, Bobby Darin was long past his “Splish-Splash” rock ‘n’ roll beginnings and the supper club success that followed. He’d moved from his successful home at Atco records to the new confines of Capitol records where the supper club hits began to dry up. The late ‘60s was a turbulent time in our country […]

Song Of The Day – “Simple Game” by The Four Tops (with The Moody Blues)
Today’s Song Of The Day could have only happened in that strange and mystical place where the worlds of The Moody Blues and The Four Tops intersect. “Simple Game” was originally the B-side to the Moody Blues’ 1967 single “Ride My See-Saw.” The song was written by Michael Pinder, and didn’t appear on a Moody […]
Song Of The Day – “Creepin’” by Stevie Wonder
Today’s Song Of The Day is from Stevie Wonder’s 1974 album Fulfillingness’ First Finale which was released shortly after a car accident that almost took his life, making the album an all-the-more-important part of his canon. While on tour in North Carolina in August of 1973, Wonder’s car smashed into the back of a logging […]

It had been a few years since the group scored a bona-fide top ten hit, and there was plenty of dissatisfaction to go around. Brother Michael was no longer the pint-sized […]

Song Of The Day – “Only A Lonely Man Would Know” by Marvin Gaye
The Marvin Gaye albums What’s Going On, Let’s Get It On and Here, My Dear are considered to be his finest by fans and critics alike, and it would be hard to argue the contrary with what’s in the grooves. But it mystifies me that the critics fail to mention the album M.P.G. in the […]
Run With 3D Again
I’m Uncle Marty, we are off and Running on the 491st chapter The 3D RadioActivity. Jim in Novato suggested that we make sure that we give equal time to the opposite direction, so we will be moving to and fro this time with hits from Motown, The Blues, Oldies and a Super Group or two with […]
