ROCKUMENTARY: MARCH 14, 1987

#1 – Huey Lewis & the News: “Jacob’s Ladder”

This was less of a Fifties throwback than his earlier work, and it sounds more like Eighties rock. This was a huge hit for him.

Huey Lewis & the News: “Jacob’s Ladder”

That’s it for tonight.

Tomorrow night we start something completely different. It’s time to go classical once again. This time it’s a survey of Beethoven’s chamber music. You think classical music in general – and chamber music in particular – are boring? Guess again! Lou Beethoven was a master. The early works have some of the funniest musical gags in the repertory, and the late works are conversations with God. Come with me on a voyage into some of the greatest music ever written.

Cue the Rockumentary theme!

San Remo Golden Strings: “Festival Time”

Rest well, Maestro - I look forward to the tour through Beethoven's chamber music with great anticipation. We are so fortunate to have had geniuses like him among us. Without Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, and others I would go stark raving nuts.

Good night, Publius, and rest well. Thanks for all the tidbits about the various songs and their artists. Thanks for helping honor the troops, and thank you for your service to our country.
