7 Mary 3 and 4 in pursuit. 7 designates the patrol beat, M for Mary designates that it's a motorcycle unit, and 3 is the unit number for Officer Jon Baker. The band Seven Mary Three took their name from this while the guitarist was watching CHiPs.

The cardiologist's hold music reminded me a little of Black Gold by Soul Asylum, so I had to go to YouTube and listen to it. That's easier by far than getting my CD out from across the room. I can't even get to it. I don't know what's more surprising: A. I haven't watched the video before. B. I have, but don't remember one of the guys wearing pince-nez eyeglasses, or C. I actually spelled pince-nez correctly (except I didn't hyphenate it, I spelled it pince nez).

I was listening to Ozzy's Boneyard (featuring a classic rock/hard rock format) on Sirius XM Radio channel 38 today while I was cruising down the highway. I heard a song I didn't know called Blitzkrieg, by a band named Blitzkrieg. It was from their 1985 debut studio album A Time of Changes. They previously released it as the B-side of their debut single, Creeping Death in 1980. The band broke up after one single, and reformed 5 years later. The way the song starts out reminds me of Hocus Pocus, by the Dutch rock band Focus, from their second studio album Focus II (better known by its international title, Moving Waves) 1971.

Creeping Death by Metallica was released as a 1984 single with a B-side titled Garage Days Revisited made up of covers of the earlier version of Blitzkrieg, and Am I Evil by Diamond Head. I've heard the Metallica version of Am I Evil several times, but not the original from Diamond Head's 1980 debut album, Lightning to the Nations. So, here are the 1980  and 1985 versions of Blitzkrieg, Metallica's 1984 version, Hocus Pocus, by Focus, and Am I Evil by Diamond Head and Metallica. by the way, when Metallica comes the radio, I always change the channel. They're severely overplayed, overrated plagiarists with too many songs that sound alike.

Mercury Blues, originally titled Mercury Boogie, is a song written by rural blues musician K. C. Douglas and Robert Geddins. It was first recorded by Douglas in 1948 and released in 1949. It was covered in the '70s, 80s, and 90s, and went downhill each time after the first cover. It was on rock musician Steve Miller's ninth studio album, 1976's rock classic Fly Like an Eagle, rock musician David Lindley's 1981 album, El Rayo-X, and on country musician Alan Jackson's 1993, A Lot About Livin' (And a Little 'bout Love), which was used in a 1996 Ford truck commercial. I hate the last version so much I won't listen to it, so don't blame me if the video doesn't work. My suggestion? Listen to the first 2 or 3.

When I was at one of my doctor's offices last week, the radio was on in the waiting room as it usually is. But it wasn't on the usual adult contemporary, easy listening, pop, urban, all things to everyone, station that it's normally on, Cars 108. By the way, why is "easy listening" so hard to listen to? After hearing part of a really crappy hip-hop style song they played a station identifier, then another crappy hip-hop style song. Then the played the station identifier again, for Your Hit Country B95, and started playing another song that sounded like a metal or hard rock group trying to play country music. I already knew that a lot of so-called country music sounded like pop or rock music, but not as good. But now there are apparently some country music "artists" trying to imitate rap and hip-hop too. Country music has REALLY lost its way. I think most people who say they like country music like "new country" which to me mostly sounds like a bunch of failed rock bands. If you can't make it as a rock band, add a slide guitar and sing with a fake "country" twang and you've got it made. That's not just my opinion, by the way.

The station WFBE signed on the air 70 years ago, on October 5, 1953. It was owned by the Flint Board of Education, and the studios were in the basement of Flint Central High School when I went there. It was a non-commercial, public radio station which also offered educational programs. The W signifies it's east of the Mississippi, and the rest of the call sign WFBE meant Flint Board of Education. In 1997, The Flint Board of Education was in a serious budget shortfall. It could no longer afford to maintain the station and the board members decided the schools could use the money from a sale. The rest is history. A sad, sad history of Flint's radio stations all switching to music I hate. Long gone are the days of AOR, Album Oriented Rock, where the DJs would play a whole album side of something really good. Now it's mostly country, hip hop, adult contemporary, news, sports, pop and other bullshit, with a few rock stations in the surrounding area if your antenna is good enough to pick them up. When you were too far away to get an FM signal, you used to be able to pick up AM rock stations for a maybe 200 miles when the signals skipped at night. Now there aren't any AFAIK.

One variety of psychedelic colored corn at https://www.rareseeds.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=corn was called Astronomy Domine. I recognized that as being the name of either a song or album but couldn't remember which it was. It was an old Pink Floyd song written and composed by the original vocalist/guitarist/writer Syd Barrett. It's the opening track on their debut album, The Piper at the Gates of Dawn, from 1967. It's been awhile since I played that CD. It's also the the opening track on Ummagumma, their fourth album, where it's twice as long. Ummagumma is a double album, released in 1969. The first disc consists of live recordings from concerts at Mothers Club in Birmingham and the College of Commerce in Manchester that contained part of their normal set list of the time, while the second contains solo compositions by each member of the band recorded at EMI Studios (now Abbey Road Studios). Syd Barrett wasn't in the band anymore by then. He and David Gilmour were both on A Saucerful of Secrets, the second studio album, in 1968. But, Syd Barrett wasn't on the third studio album, the soundtrack for the movie MORE, in 1969. He couldn't handle making an album a year, and the heavy use of psychedelic drugs such as LSD. They kicked him out of the band that HE started, and wrote most the music and lyrics for. Second guitarist David Gilmour took over as lead guitarist, and bass player Roger Waters became the lead vocalist. It took both of them to replace Syd. Astronomy Domine is also the second song on Pulse (stylised P·U·L·S·E), their third live album, released in 1995. The album was recorded during the European leg of the Division Bell Tour in 1994. It's back to it's original length again, instead of being twice as long. Here are all 3 album versions of Astronomy Domine by Pink Floyd. Oh, by the way, which one's Pink?
