Re-broadcasting one of my very favorite episodes of The Songcircle this week. True giants of music make up much of the playlist: Great American Songbook composers Irving Berlin and Johnny Mercer sing their own songs; plus, Bob Dylan, Frank Sinatra, Pete Seeger, Johnny Cash, The Rolling Stones, The Temptations, George Jones, The Clash, Talking Heads, Dusty Springfield, Amy Winehouse, Warren Zevon, and others, singing about Amanda, Sam, Jim, Jimmie, Janie, Casey, Wild Bill, Willie and Laura Mae, Mr., Mrs., and Miss Jones, and more — more than two dozen tunes, in all. Keep up!
Also features a song by the late Paul Siebel, who passed away on Tuesday.
