Show Notes

Beginnings & Endings

In this program Rob is joined by guest presenter Rachel, as they engage in the theme of Beginnings And Endings. Rachel begins with a very apt opening song by the Fifth Dimension Age of Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In. Rob presents three strong singers in Joan Baez: I Never Dreamed You’d Leave In Summer, Robin Gibb’s impressive performance of I Started A Joke and John Lennon’s sad posthumous hit (Just Like) Starting Over. Rachel contributes Fleetwood Mac’s popular Go Your Own Way and LGBTIQA+ Lesley Gore with her beginning and ending song Judy’s Turn to Cry. The Aussie contribution comes from the resilient Jo Jo Zep with Losing Game.
