    Musicians and Their Dogs Happy International Dog Day

    It’s International Dog Day. I know this is far, far from comprehensive, but here’s a gallery I’ve slapped together of famous musicians and their best friends. Perhaps I’ll add some more throughout the day. The subjects of the photos are identified when you click through the gallery.

  • Remembering Musicians We Lost in 2018 on WPRB

    Remembering Musicians We Lost in 2018 on WPRB

    Well, it’s that time of year again. Time for some of us to examine all the ways we’ve screwed up our lives (hopefully not irreparably) and to resolve to do better in 2018.

    More objectively, it’s also a time to remember all of those who have shuffled off this mortal coil.

    Fortunately for you, if you join me this Thursday morning on WPRB, the emphasis will be on the latter, as we listen to recordings by some of the musicians who have enriched our world through their artistry.

    Like last year, this one may turn out to be a two-parter. While it’s sad to reflect that so many talented individuals have moved on to the Great Concert Hall in the Sky, I am delighted to be able to share some of their wonderful, representative performances with you.

    Join me in celebrating the artists we lost in 2018, this Thursday morning from 6 to 11 EST, on WPRB 103.3 FM and wprb.com. It’s one of the few things left to celebrate this time of year, on Classic Ross Amico.

    Musicians Cigars and Father’s Day

    “By the cigars they smoke, and the composers they love, ye shall know the texture of men’s souls.”

    – James Galsworthy
