Big Barking Dog Alternative Radio Hour

Happy Holidays to those of every religion . . . or no religion at all. This Christmas Eve we present "Handel's Messiah Parts 1 & 2" (including the Hallelujah Chorus). Stay warm, safe and happy . . . while remembering . . . and working to help . . . those who are not . . .

Seal (a.k.a. Henry Olusegun Olumide Adeola Samuel) came onto the music scene in the 1980's. His first breakout album was released in 1991 and simply titled "Seal." Since then he's sold over 28 million records world wide. Tonight we offer many of his lesser known acoustic, live and soulful tracks. Some are rare versions of his most beloved songs. Others are artful covers of standard soul songs. Feel free to download copies of this podcast from WCRS or my personal website (www.BigBarkingDog.com). SEAL - RARE, LIVE AND SOULFUL “Crazy” BREAK ONE “Prayer for the Dying” “Deep Water” “Show Me” “It’s a Man’s World” “Fast Changes” BREAK TWO “Life on Mars” “I’m Still in Love with You” “Back Stabbers” “Let’s Stay Together” “Kiss from a Rose”

Arguably the best selling world music album of all time, "Buena Vista Social Club" reunites Cuba's most venerable musicians, many of whom were active in the 1930's, 40's and early 50's. This album was produced in 1996 in Cuba by Ry Cooder and inspired a film of the same name by Wim Wenders. I strongly encourage you to search Youtube for "Buena Vista Social Club." You'll discover a trove of excellent music videos. Download. Share. Repeat as needed.
