BIRTHDAY - Mark HAD to kick off the show today with this Beatles classic, as performed by Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul in 2017 at Liverpool's Cavern Club
DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE - Mark played the B side of The Count Five's 1966 hit PSYCHOTIC REACTION to open the first set.
AMERICAN DREAM - Mark selected this Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young tune for Set 2.
ONLY IN AMERICA - Mark played this Drifters tune, originally written by Mann & Weil, to open set number 3, and talked about how its lyrics were changed from Cynthia Weil's original ones about riding in the back of the bus, etc., to more "acceptable" ones, with the input of Leiber & Stoller. He shared the story of the Drifters version eventually being yanked by the label because even the revised lyrics were unbelievable in 1963, with the master sold to Leiber & Stoller. Thet stripped off the Drifters' vocals, had Jay & The Americans record the vocals, and sped the finished track up. And that's why the original Drifters recording sounds so much like the JATA hit.
ALL AMERICAN BOY - Mark played this Bobby Bare rockabilly song about the life of Elvis in Set 4.
LIVING IN AMERICA - Mark chose this James Brown hit, from Rocky IV, for Set 5.
AMERICAN WOMAN - Mark played this Lenny Kravitz cover of the Guess Who hit to close Set 6. And you can see them performing it TOGETHER in the second video below.
AMERICA - This Simon & Garfunkel song, one of Mark's favorites, was in the seventh set today.
SING YOUR OWN SONG - Mark picked this tune that he wrote with Perry Botkin for an Anheiser-Busch promotion, to open the eighth set.
AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL - Mark closed the show with this Ray Charles classic.
THANKS to everyone who bid on Mark's memorabilia in the Julien's auction in November, and congratulations to the winners! We accidentally packed some acetates so they went to Hawaii instead of Julien's. We'll have Ryeland Allison transfer them after the holidays, so keep an eye on this website for news on their posting.
