#195 - Gordon Lightfoot / Music for Business Events / Sheeran vs Gaye, in Theory
Jay kicks us off with a remembrance of another lost legend. Considered one of Canada’s greatest songwriter, Gordon Lightfoot passed away at the age of 84. He helped define folk-pop in the 1960s & 70s and we celebrate his music and legacy.
Songs:
Gordon Lightfoot - “Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald”
Gordon Lightfoot - “If You Could Read My Mind”
Nick started a new job a few months back and he’s been working on pulling together the Annual Event for his new employer. Part of that includes a cocktail hour before the festivities and, knowing his audience and some details of past events, wants some help coming up with a music playlist that would be appropriate.
Song: Medeski Martin & Wood - “Pappy Check”
With the Ed Sheeran/Marvin Gaye trial underway, Greg takes his turn in the Copyright chair this week. Rather than discuss the underlying legal issues surrounding the case, Greg is focusing on the theory behind it all. He’s busting out the keyboard again folks and you don’t wanna miss it.
Song: Torche - “The Triumph of Venus”
