Episode 179: Cover of the Rolling Stone

This week's theme from Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show! Shel Silverstein is the lyricist behind today’s theme: He had a knack for understanding what people wanted. And he understood how every musician’s dream was to be a star. To be a BIG star. To be on the cover of a big magazine, and what magazine epitomized music?

PLUS! CD-Baby's Top-10 Albums from the Flava: Introspective Inklings. Fame Games Mail from Rose who left a comment on blogger.com; Regular rotational airplay went to Track of the Month Winner - "Beautiful Mess" by David Thiele!

Regining Track of the Week: Kelly Pettit with "She's Just Like Summer"

• KIREINA from Madrid, Spain with “All I Want is You” – Power Pop
• ANEW AIRSHIP from Halifax, Canada with “New Day” – Pop
• STELLA BLACKROSE from Copenhagen, Denmark with “With You” – Hard Rock
