Songs for The Total Eclipse - what's yours?
UCR ^ | 4/1/2024 | Allison Rapp

Posted on 04/08/2024 6:06:58 AM PDT by 1Old Pro

On April 8, for precisely four minutes and 27 seconds, the moon will pass in front of the sun blocking out all light — a total solar eclipse.

The last time this kind of galactic display occurred was in 2017, and although eclipses like this do happen once every 18 months or so, they're usually not visible to people on land.

Of course, what would a global scientific wonder be without an appropriate accompanying playlist? Below, we've laid out 30 Eclipse Songs to jam out to while the moon does its thing.

Sisters Of The Moon - Fleetwood Mac

This is from the underappreciated 1979 "Tusk" double album of Fleetwood Mac. This haunting vocal by Stevie Nicks is a highlight of that album that really should have been a much bigger hit.

I linked to a live performance from 1982 above.

That song, and some of the ones already mentioned here, will be getting played shortly on Deep Tracks (if you have Sirius/XM). DJ Earle Bailey is devoting his entire 6-hour show to nothing but songs about the eclipse, sun, and the moon. Should be interesting. If you miss it, it will be available for streaming on the Sirius/XM app.

I sound like I'm doing a commercial here but this looks to be a very good radio show for those who like hearing the deeper cuts of classic rock.
