Martha Reeves: Wild Night (Van Morrison cover)
When you think of cover versions of Van Morrison's "Wild Night," usually John Mellencamp and Meshell Ndegeocello's 1994 recording comes to mind.

But 20 years earlier, Martha Reeves pounded out a powerful version on her debut solo album, which was produced by a hot producer of the time, Richard Perry.
The album was dominated by many top session musicians from that era, among them Billy Preston, Klaus Voorman, Nicky Hopkins, and Jim Keltner.
I don't know if they played on this cut.
Reeves does a spectacular job on this song. However, Perry's production was a bit over the top. A singer with Reeves talents didn't need a huge amount of support.
But still, this is a killer performance by Reeves.
This song was included on Thelma and Louise soundtrack.

The Tornadoes: Telstar
Happy Halloween!

Here's a spooky tune, well, sort of that is. It's "Telstar" by the Tornadoes.
It's where surf music meets science fiction.
Earlier this month I reviewed--the link to it is below the video clip--Tales from The Rock ‘n Roll Twilight Zone, a new book by Richard Syrett.
One of the artists whose story he told--a sad one, by the way--was of Joe Meek, a British producer.
He wrote and produced "Telstar." Also, he used sampling techniques. He was years ahead of his time.
As was this song.
Oh, Telstar 1 was a very early communications satellite.

Cheaters always cheat: Alaska governor orders investigation into Dems' alleged ballot scheme

DETAILS: Illinois voters consider NEW STATE without Chicago
The real story here is that downstate Illinois voters, because of Governor JB Pritzker's gerrymandering, feel disenfranchised.
While Pritzker claims, wrongly, that President Donald Trump is a threat to democracy.
Look in the mirror, JB.
