Songs for each day of the week (except Wednesday)

The roulette wheel spins wildly for this last time in 2010, and lands on: the days of the week.

John Maynard and John Kessler stroll through the 7 days of the week on Record Bin Roulette and find some imbalances: certain days are just a little more popular than others. Can you guess which?

Here's a sampling of the vinyl review of the days of the week:

  • Monday is the 'big daddy' of weekday songs. Name three. We bet you can!
  • Tuesday is a real good news day. That is until the afternoon, when it gets even better.
  • Wednesday songs would be full of woe, were there any. Can you come up with one? Let us know with your comment below.
  • Thursday gets its own picnic.
  • Friday gets a kick from someone whose boots were made for walking.
  • Saturday is a little like Monday, a day you can quickly recall in popular song.
  • Sunday is immortalized with a 'kind of love'

These days of our lives, and so much more, is open for your review at RecordBinRoulette.com

John has worked as a professional bassist for 20 years, including a 15 year stint as Musical Director of the Mountain Stage radio program. John has been at KNKX since 1999 where he hosts “All Blues”, is producer of the BirdNote radio program, and co-hosts “Record Bin Roulette”. John is also the recording engineer for KNKX “In-Studio Performances”. Not surprisingly, John's main musical interests are jazz and blues, and he is still performing around Seattle.
John Maynard started working in radio in the seventies as a DJ at Seattle’s KJR AM which at the time was the dominant AM station in the Seattle market. After a brief stint as a restaurateur and night club owner, Maynard returned to radio with Robin Erickson, creating the hugely popular “Robin and Maynard Show.” In the more than 20 years under that marquee, Maynard flew with the Blue Angels, piloted the Goodyear Blimp, sang with Donny Osmond and hung out in a Universal Studios bar with Kojak (Telly Savalas).
