AC/DC - Have a Drink on Me (Official Audio)

On the theme of not being an angel, one of my theme songs; actually slipped this tune in on occasion at my second radio station gig which was an adult contemporary format. I could be rebel that way but I’m No Angel, yanno.

Men Without Shame

One of the tunes in heavy rotation on Minneapolis’s KDWB/101 FM when its format was album oriented rock (AOR) in the summer of ‘83 when I was going to broadcast school. A year later, I was playing it on the radio on my AOR airshift.

You've had it your own way
(Your own way)
You leave me no way out
(No way out)
And baby I'll never
Follow you down
To where you're going to
Now I can see we're through

No no
No Turning Back

Methinks with all the deregulation going on in the States with the tRump regime there’s gonna be more industrial (and other) diseases. Maybe Knopfler will update his lyrics.

Doctor Parkinson declared, "I'm not surprised to see you here
You've got smokers cough from smoking, brewer's droop from drinking beer
I don't know how you came to get the Bette Davis knees
But worst of all young man, you've got Industrial Disease.”

Industrial Disease

The nighty night jam: hands down one of my personal favorite tunes from Neil Young. Always kinda reminded me of his “Mr. Soul” from his time with Buffalo Springfield.

Opera Star (2016 Remaster)

YouTube

The song is about a high school hockey player with a promising future and on this date, 1 June, 2026, I’m thinking on deck this beautiful Monday evening of someone else born 40 years ago and gone a little more than 20 years later.

You never can tell what might come down
You never can tell when you might check out
You just don't know, no, you never can tell
So do right to others like you do to yourself
In the Big League

Workin' hard to make a livin'
'Til the sun goes down without fail
Work my fingers to the bone
Get nothin but union scale
And when that whistle blows I ready
Thank God it's Friday night
On the weekend I let loose until the mornin' light
And I think you better Hang On For Your Life tonight
