I’d been thinking about doing a show just filled with rock breaks for some time, as I do love them so (as I mentioned in the prior post), but the mood took a bit of time to sort out. Originally I was going to use “Bombastic,” but when I actually sat down and looked at the definition, I realized just how swayed I had been by Shaggy’s iconic song. While it seemed like it would have been perfect for a show featuring brash, loud songs, the actual definition is “high sounding, but with little meaning…inflated,” and that was quite the opposite of how I felt about these songs. So the search was on for another mood that would fit this collection of heavy tunes. Fate smiled on me when I finally made my way to “Raucous,” which I often pronounce as “Rock-Cuss,” (or in those moments where my Southern drawl makes an appearance, “Rawk-usss”) and thus all was again right in the world and this show was born. There are many Rock breaks, from every sub-genre of Rock’n’Roll, but I feel like these are some of the hardest and heaviest, and that’s why they made it into the show. Hope y’all dig.
