**Today we get music advice from Colin McEnroe, Joan Holliday, Eric Danton and Wally Lamb. Check out their playlists below.**
We need a better name for these music shows we do with Wally Lamb, Eric Danton and Joan Holiday. At the moment, we call them Peekaboo Radio, and the deal is that we introduce you to music you may not know about. Or may have forgotten about.
We always have way too much stuff and not enough time to talk, so I'm asserting my control over this little segment to mention a performer who died. He name was Judee Sill. We'll play a bit of her song The Kiss today, but I actually recommend going to YouTube to find the less orchestrated version. I missed Sill the first time around even though I was listening a lot to the West Coast scene she was in. She died from drug abuse in 1979, a broken person whose music suggests a startling capacity to heal.
We did a show last week on the healing power of music. Listen to The Kiss and see if it doesn't put light and air in your heart.
