I’m your Uncle Marty, with The 3D RadioActivity number 482. Informal speech and representations of such will oftentimes combine words. GOTTA is used in written English to represent the words ‘got to’ when they are pronounced informally, with the meaning ‘have to’ or ‘must’. Since a lot of poetic license is applied to the musical form of lyrics, […]
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Ruin” by Cat Power
I don’t know what it is about Charlyn Marie Marshall, the artist we now know as Cat Power. Every music rag I pick up amply pours the accolades on like maple syrup and, of course, I feel the need to eat it up. As a result, I’ve purchased several of her records and find that, […]
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Montauk” by Rufus Wainwright
The self-described “Gay Messiah” got back into the game this year with his most seventies-esque album called “Out Of The Game.” Under the tutelage of producer Mark Ronson (Amy Winehouse), Wainwright delivered a record sonically more in line with classic Steely Dan than the baroque, rococo sound of his last few releases. Wainwright has said […]
Ordinary Joes
‘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. Similar to how we did “A Show Called Bob” or “You Don’t Know Jack“, here’s several Joes you know and a few I’d like to introduce to you. Our […]
Just KiDDDing
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 […]
RadioActive Child Play
I’m Uncle Marty to all the children, with the 476th chapter of The 3D RadioActivity, with more Child Play for you. We know who the who are, here’s some examples of the when and where that they can be found. We’ve had 28 examples of CHILD’S PLAY over this show and the one before. We will continue in that general […]
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “I Just Can’t Help Believing” by Elvis Presley
Everybody has a favorite version of Elvis: the hip-swivellin’ 1950s hep-cat, the swarmy good ‘ol boy of his many second rate films, the leather-clad comeback kid of 1968, the sequined-suited star of Vegas, and, sadly, the fat bloated disaster of the late ‘70s before he met his maker, 35 years ago today. My particular favorite […]
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Life On Mars” by Barbra Streisand
Here’s one for fans of NASA its missions to Mars. I love the photos that are coming out of the red planet so far and can’t wait to see more. Now, on to this cover of one of David Bowie’s prettiest melodies and greatest songs…Like most people, I think Barbra Streisand has a great voice…like […]
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Easy Come Easy Go” by Cass Elliot
Only in the 1960s could someone as robust as Cass Elliot become an equally big star. Sure, she had talent to burn and a set of unrivalled pipes, but in this day of the thinner than thin in showbiz, she just would not have stood a chance…and a shame it would have been indeed. The […]
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. Including […]
