My Unforgettable Experiences With Tony Bennett
My infatuation with Tony Bennett blossomed in the 90s, when I attended my inaugural concert on Cape Cod, Hyannis in MA on August 20, 1995. I recall perched in my seat, eagerly anticipating his grand entrance. The atmosphere crackled with electricity, and the crowd's energy was infectious. Overflowing with excitement, I anxiously yearned for his arrival.

A Presidential Playlist
Introduction On Twitter Dave Gedge of the band The Wedding Present and I follow each other and he has a new album out. One of my favourite Wedding Present Somgs is "Kennedy" with that line "Too Much Apple Pie" and I thought I wonder if I could put together a playlist of at least a half-dozen songs relating to presidents, or their names. So this may go down in flames or it might be absolutely brilliant.

Blues is a music genre and a musical form that originated in the Deep South in the US around the 1860s. Since then the blues have been incorporated into music and song in many different ways. Having the blues can be interpreted as feeling a bit low so these songs are a mix of all kinds and perhaps not really part of the blues genre. These songs are an interesting mix and are sung by many well-known artists.

Classical Ruination
Introduction This was getting a few reads on Seven Days In and I thought I could turn it into a sort of playlist of modernish songs and the classical pieces that they were lifted from. I will start with the Apollo 100 take on Bach's "Jesu Joy Of Man's Desire" simply retitled "Joy" but it is a favourite piece of mine, but this does give you the opportunity to compare.
