Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with HEART!

As we wrap up our summery theme tonight, here's a fabulous track that can be enjoyed blaring from a home stereo or a car til all hours (Or until quiet hours are enforced in your area), Heart, with the classic 1976 album version of 'Crazy on You' giving you another Music Series happy finish.

Also a bonus tonight, a helpful guide on avoiding run-on sentences.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with HEART!

The first song on the first album Johnny ever heard on a friend's giant new sound system from way back when. Johnny's friend Roger was an enterprising genius engineer who saved his money and bought the best stereo of the day with the best speakers. You can imagine a young impressionable Johnny hearing the incredible 'Crazy On You' by Heart and the effect it had on him. Still does today.

Turn it up.

Funny how life works out. One day you're a young teen and your friend Roger (that's the second time his influence on a young impressionable, ne, sponge Johnny has been mentioned recently) is putting this album on and this being the first song on the Dreamboat Annie album (on his new Marantz system), and blowing Johnny away. Then one day he's standing in NYC briefly chatting up Ann and Nancy Wilson in Union Square after seeing them live, mmm, 5 times in between.

They are awesome and they will always be awesome. Heart with 'Crazy on You'

Zoltron just went on a rant through the offices vaguely referencing Iraq and Iran

Now, there's nothing to fear, he's been with the Jersey City Desk since the beginning. Thus far, since nobody had their cellphones out the local news are thankfully not camped outside Zoltron's house. He just ran out of the intern offices babbling and ranting and talking about Iran and Iraq and communal living and said something about Jet Blue Airways before getting to the occupied and locked bathroom door outside the bullpen and trying to kick it in.

Since he works here no charges will be filed and we'll all ask for your understanding. If he was just someone off the street and did that he'd be in jail for a good long while...

Sister power! For decades now Johnny has adored Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart. Not just as sexy sirens but as songwriters, musicians and all around just cool ladies. Johnny's had the extreme good fortune of seeing them twice live, once right up against the stage in the late 70's at the Flint IMA Auditorium. What a terrific show they put on as well. Ann's voice is a force of nature.
