A curious theme, indeed! We’re talking ‘questions’, naturally. And don’t you think it’s time we got around to this theme? There was no shortage of ammunition…songs that end with that curly-que that has been the topic of many theories. One such theory suggests that it originate from the Latin word “quaestio” which, shortened to “qo”, would evolve into the symbol we recognize today. Each and every track in the show today delivers that terminating mark in search of an answer. We’ve heard of answer songs, but what about these question songs and most demand good answers because, well, they’re good questions. Jazz, country, rock ‘n roll, and everything in between with selections from The Lovin’ Spoonful, Dan Hicks, The Robins, Joe Liggins and Bo Diddley are just a sampling of the nearly three dozen songs with “good questions” theme. Where would we be without music? Don’ have that answer but I’m guessing I don’t want to know.
