Trump brilliantly skewered in new song from Todd Rundgren and Donald Fagen. Not #FakeMusic

Your #TinPodShuffle for Sunday, July 23 , 2017:

Your weekly hour of music for your Sunday putters.

No links; I’m still on summer hours. But I had time to draft the following facetious note:

Broken Social Scene is a Toronto-based music collective. It had 19 members at last count, although attendance is not taken and administration is lax so no one knows for sure. I mention this because when someone brags that they know someone in a band, usually they are lying. If, however, you know anyone in Toronto, anyone at all, odds are they actually are either in Broken Social Scene itself or a friend, partner, relative or co-worker of someone who is. Don’t judge.

A special @Canada Day #TinPodShuffle for Saturday, July 1, 2017:

This year’s #Canada Day marks 150 years since the Confederation of British colonies Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick became the nub of modern day Canada. Pales in comparison to the 20-30K years 1-2% of Canadians’ ancestors have been here, but we’re breaking out the 24’s today, Buddy, and I’ve got a tonne of great Canadian music on my iPod, eh.

 

Reviews, info & stuff: Cowboy Junkies, Blackie & The Rodeo Kings, Weakerthans, Deep Dark Woods, Tanya Tagaq, Corb Lund, Rufus Wainwright, Constantines, Great Lake Swimmers, Garolou, Mike Stevens & Matt Andersen, Stompin’ Tom Connors, Roy Forbes & Connie Kaldor, Andrew Gunadie & Julia Bentley, Randy Bachman (& watch the vid of this with Neil Young).

Your #TinPodShuffle for Sunday, June 25, 2017:

I massage the order just to feel involved, but otherwise it’s just like a sleep twitch.

Reviews, info & stuff: Editors, Marvin Gaye,  Alabama Shakes, Beastie Boys, Frightened Rabbit, Bob Marley, Kieran Kane & Kevin Welch & Fats Kaplin, Pinetop Perkins, Zaz, Tom Robinson Band, Lucinda Williams, Oscar Mack, Bombino.

Tune in a day early next week for a spirit of Canada playlist. I got ya (you) an internet sensation (no, not that one), a boot (not aboot), a band (but not The Band), Frenching, cussing, bonecrunching Winnipeg dinosaurs young (a pun) and old … and all sorts of wonders from coast to coast to coast (and that’s a teaser, too). Hope you enjoy, eh – TCM
