CLEANING OLD RECORD PHOTOS OUT OF MY PHONE BINGE: Leave it to the ever-enterprising genius Todd Rundgren to team up with a bunch of other musical geniuses for an album that I still have yet to listen to but immediately bought when I found it. How could I skip it, because look at the guest list: Neil Finn! Thomas Dolby! Sparks! Rivers Cuomo from Weezer! Rick Nielsen from Cheap Trick! Guitar maestros Adrian Belew and Steve Vai! Questlove and the Roots! The lack of photos on the cover says to me this is likely an “I was bored during the pandemic and recorded this remotely, trading Pro Tools files back and forth,” so that tamps down the enthusiasm a bit (few pandemic albums have been all killer, no filler), but at the least, it’ll be an interesting listen.

MONDAY MATINEE MUSIC VIDEO “Daydream Believer” + “It’s Going to Be Different” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4biM3K_QCX8 Two songs I did as host of an Open Mic at San Francisco Lighthouse. I shared a memory about the many times I've played "Daydream Believer" with Davy Jones and The Monkees. The second song (my original composition) is getting a lot of interest and will be released on my next album, WE’RE GETTING CLOSER TO THE SUN. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4biM3K_QCX8

MONDAY MATINEE MUSIC VIDEO  “Turn Your Back On the Wind” by The Fourmyula  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuX_5thg3m0 Winding back to 1969-70, Chris Andrews was working with The Fourmyula, a band from New Zealand who’d been recording at Abbey Road next door to The Beatles—musically simpatico with The Fourmyula’s harmony-driven psychedelic pop that became heavier as the band progressed. In 1968 they’d had a string of hits unmatched by any other band from NZ. Back then, NZ bands relied on doing covers of overseas songs, but The Fourmyula insisted on recording their own material. Their song “Nature,” composed by pianist/guitarist Wayne Mason, became a #1 international hit, won several awards, and went on to be covered by numerous artists over the years. It can be said they set the stage for later NZ successes like Crowded House, Neil Finn, and Split Enz.  “Turn Your Back On the Wind” was the title song of a Fourmyula album produced by Chris. In 1971 the band broke up and went home (excepting drummer Chris Parry stayed in the UK, went into A&R and production, and later launched The Cure and The Jam). Meanwhile, as musical heroes in their homeland, The Fourmyula reformed with Mason in 2010 on the heels of a CD box set celebrating their excellent recordings. “Turn Your Back on the Wind” is still getting plays. On a cosmic jukebox it plays between early Bee Gees and Marmalade... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuX_5thg3m0
