I’ve been doing a series of vignettes for CBS Radio called “1000 Things About 100 Songs You’ve Heard 1,000,000 Times”. (Yes, I’ve copyrighted that.)

Cut a couple this week that have me thinking in a summer way. So here are the songs and samples of “1000 Things”.

1000 Things About My Girl
The Temptations – My Girl

1000 Things About She’s Gone
Hall And Oates – She’s Gone

1000 Things About Show Me The Way
Peter Frampton – Show Me The Way

Along with my regular F45 features (Classic Recording Studios, Great Session Players, Great Record Producers, Rock And Roll Hit & Lit), I’m going to drop in a few long-form mixes here and there. That’s what I posted on F45 exclusively for the quite awhile, dating back to my debut in December 2006 (which you can still hear here).

It’s been 6 months or so since I was last in the studio, so I’m a little rusty. The mixes aren’t so tight and the flow is a little weird. But it’s not bad. Hope you enjoy it.

For really great mixes, check out Adam Weatherhead’s Diddy Wah.
