(Feb. 1967, highest chart pos. #1 WLS Chicago/#36 Hot 100,
#40 Cash Box, scene from Apr. 28, 1968, ep. of The Mothers-In-Law)
And we're off to a rockin' start with The Seeds, the LA-based psychedelic
garage rock band doing their signature song "Pushin' Too Hard." I have
two pieces of trivia to share with you. If you're watching the simulcast
of my show on YouTube, you saw The Seeds in the role of a hippie
band called The Warts and singing their big hit on a 1968 episode
of the TV sitcom The Mothers-In-Law. Lead singer Sky Saxon,
who wrote "Pushin' Too Hard," died June 25, 2009, the same
day the world lost The King of Pop Michael Jackson.

Here's a rowdy relic from the summer of '68 performed by Philadelphia
area rock chick Joan Jett and her badass band The Blackhearts.
Seems Joan needs a check-up from the neck-up as she
declares-- "I Hate Myself For Loving You!"
"I Hate Myself For Loving You" - Joan Jett & The Blackhearts
(Aug./Sept. 1988, highest chart pos. #8 Hot 100/#10 Cash Box,

That was Philly filly Joan Jett,
hatin' on herself for loving you,
a girl power anthem from the
album Up Your Alley and a
top 10 hit single for Joan
and The Blackhearts in
the summer of 1988.

That's right - two Jetts for the price of one. Far from one hit wonders,
Joan Jett and The Blackhearts rode high on the chart throughout the 80s.
At the start of 1990, Joan covered a song by the Aussie band AC/DC.
Here's The Original Riot Grrrl doing-- "Dirty Deeds!"

Up next a pair of 21st century up-and-comers doing justice to a rock classic of
the 20th century. Canadian YouTube star Jadyn Rylee was born on Valentine's
Day, 2006, and began singing at the age of six. Her performances of covers
and original songs have drawn tens of millions of views on social media.
One week after her 12th birthday, Jayden uploaded the cover you are
about to witness, a collaboration with fellow Canadian singer,
composer, dancer, actress and fellow YouTuber Aviv Cohen.
Together the cute and capable Canucks make magic
doing their version of Aerosmith's best known
power ballad-- "Dream On!"

To play us off, here are Ritchie Blackmore and his British band Deep Purple

Daisy Skye saying be good, stay vigilant and see you next time!
