    "Nightflight" Tue May 21, 9P-12M ET:More Amazing Original Backing Tracks!

    Howdy, Folks. It's been a horrible few days for the Oklahomans...the shocking power of the forces of nature have caused unbelievable devastation. Our hearts and prayers are with the many thousands of those affected. Tonight's show is for them...it's not much, but empathy and hope are all I got.

    Tonight's show is the 2nd and final installment of Original, Authentic Backing Tracks, the musical element of songs that allows the musicians and background singers to shine. There will be no lead vocals to distract from what's going on in the background. I just thought I'd give the background of these great Pop, Rock, Motown and Soul tracks to be
    given it's due. Speaking of "due"....DO join me tonight....for all this and more...on "Nightflight"...on WOMR 92.1 FM Provincetown and WFMR 91.3 FM Orleans and we are streaing worldwide in digital stereo at www.womr.org
    Thanks! John

    Hey John, looking forward to more OABT's on tonights Nighflight program. Would you by any chance have any OABT's of the Doors. Maybe something featuring Ray Manzarek's unique, upfront key boarding? See you and the gang later on the Radiola.

    Rest In Peace Ray Manzarek. Thank you for the music.

    John, not only are you the "Motown Man" with heart and soul, you obviously have a lot of compassion for others as well. As always, I will be listening this evening, and my thoughts going out to the people of Oklahoma.

    Joseph....hey there! As some backing tracks have been very easy to locate, some artists are most difficult....no Paul Simon, Simon and Garfunkel, Billy Joel, Petula Clark and no
    Doors. We Motown fans are so lucky that so much popular and rare Motown backing tracks have been available...and many of them thanks to Andy Skurow from the Original
    karaokes. Sorry....really! See you later on the Radiola, my friend!

    With no vocals on this, you definitely get to Listen To The Music on this Doobie Bros track

    I always thought there was so much more to Mary and Flo when with Diana than just moving their hands and shaking their hips.
