		<title>In Training</title>
		<description><![CDATA[And we begin our new WMMCM obsession: Trains! When Pete suggested this, I didn&#8217;t think there were enough rock train songs to be worth getting into. I mean, country acts write about trains. But once we started talking about it, the trains started rolling, so to speak. Beginning with this one, from a singer-songwriter, an [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cool, Cool Reign!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Rain&#8230; That&#8217;s how it begins. Some forceful piano chords with rain. Then the Moon rises with some timpani and piano arpeggios. Setting a mood that sticks with you. This is powerful without being rude. As the closing song for The Who&#8217;s masterpiece Quadrophenia, &#8220;Love, Reign O&#8217;er Me&#8221; is one of those songs that fits the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re coming to the end of our nearly monthlong rock star roundup &#8212; indeed, we&#8217;re in training, so to speak, for our next topic, starting Friday &#8212; and we&#8217;ve been saving this one: (There are better versions on YouTube, but they&#8217;re not embeddable.) I have to say I didn&#8217;t like this record much when it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cool, Cool Rain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re coming into the home stretch of our rock star marathon (do marathons have home stretches?), and here&#8217;s a track for a Sunday, &#8220;Love Reign O&#8217;er Me,&#8221; the magnificent ballad that closes out the Who&#8217;s Quadrophenia. Is it really a song about a rock star? I would say it is. One premise of the Quadrophenia [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beth Conquers Detroit!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Growing up during the 70&#8242;s, I was always into the next most shocking thing to come along in rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll. I remember my mom having some serious problems with me buying Alice Cooper&#8217;s Killer album until she either decided to trust the fact that my becoming a mass murderer was a very remote possibility [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pooh Is Not My Real Name!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For today&#8217;s WMMCM rock star extravaganza I decided to write about a song from a band that hails from north of the border, as in Canada. Why Canada? Well there is something aboot a band from Canada having a big hit in the U.S. in 1973 that I find interesting. There have been quite a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Standing Outside Boulder</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve spent the last while on rock stars on being a rock star, but today we have a folk-based artist (who had several Top 40 hits) singing about a fellow folkie &#8220;who never was that famous&#8221;: Gordon Lightfoot is too often dismissed by pop and rock fans who actually know very little about him &#8212; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Detroit! A Good Place To Be&#8230; From&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Detroit, Michigan, is not really a town known for its rock music scene. (Just kidding&#8230;) There are plenty of rock stars from there, but it&#8217;s never been a place where careers take off. If you were a blues or R&#38;B singer it was a great place to be, but rock? Well, not so much. The [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rock stars singing about being rock stars &#8212; and related topics &#8212; is our current WMMCM obsession, and today&#8217;s entry is from Steve Perry and the Journey boys: Perry is absolutely one of the most gifted pop singers of any era, and the whole crew were first-rate musicians. They were able, once in a great [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lodge-ing A complaint</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As we continue down our path of audio destruction involving the life and times of rock stars, there is one thing that becomes more and more obvious. Some of the people who want to become rock stars do so because they are driven and they can. They have the talent, the desire, and also the [...]]]></description>
