Playlist for Sunday, March 31, 2019: Maybe Auntie Em just needed Calgon

Does anyone else IN THE WORLD have giant trees looming 80 ft. above their house, trees that are probably like 250 years old, half dead? Trees that in the middle of the night, with the west "trade" winds howling, fill you with dread and dreams of crashing roofs, splintering shingles, and, in general, death? No? Well, come onna my house (my housa come on), cuz I do. Some of you may know that in wind storms gone by, I have lost a kitchen roof. So my next thought is, do I lose these trees, and the back of my house in consequence?

 No, this is not one of my trees.

Things aren't THAT bad.

BUT to take down those trees would mean Bad Landscaping. A horrid view. I mean, it ain't La Belle Vue now, but it would look positively naked without my withering ash and limb-challenged maple. I've grown attached. Even if they haven't. Soooo...new plan. They get "haircuts", a trim, a buzz cut, a divestment of all branches dead or dormant, yet remain IN the ground. I'm hoping that does it. Fewer nightmares.

No nightmares in this week's playlist either! Lots of money-related songs (still raising the dough for Jazz 90.1...have you donated? Nudge nudge, wink wink:)), some traditional Bali Ha'i's and Goldstones, a couple of cheesey themes, plus a dash of The Merm. Like Calgon, Broadway "takes me away" from the mundane (dead trees) and the stressful (dead trees). Broadway, do your stuff!
