Inspired by the season, the passings of Whodini’s Ecstasy and Chad & Jeremy’s Chad Stuart, and the December 24 birthdays of Ricky Martin, Lee Dorsey, Ray Bryant and Dave Bartholomew.
Inspired by the October 20 birthdays of Tom Petty, Snoop Dogg, Teenage Fanclub’s Norman Blake, Wanda Jackson, The Tokens’ Jay Siegel, and Eddie Harris.
Today’s playlist is inspired by John Waters – director, screenwriter, author, actor, journalist, hero. As today is his 69th birthday, I compiled this collection of songs that have been in his movies, songs he’s written about, and songs by folks who have been in his movies.
