From Zep to Oz: The 24 Hour Song Challenge 2.5

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Prepare to lunge into a new era with the latest 24 Hour Song Challenge!

Fans of the Challenge may recall that it is simply a jukebox game where I get to play the deejay, and the brilliant KC and Brad bring the dream to life. Over multiple tracks, from multiple cities, under multiple deadlines, with multiple levels of rock-assity.

For this Challenge, we decided it should be celebratory of the times. Conceived before the Inauguration, we each discussed songs that seemed to fit the moment - for one reason or another. Since the original challenge dictated that songs must be selected from the lexicon of 70's AM Gold; I attempted to stay well within the rules. But when you are on Planet Brad, all things are possible, and a bridge to the future was built upon the past - and the desire to hear certain songs sung red, white and blue.

The medley that is about to blow your mind celebrates the son of an Immigrant, being passed the torch from a Son of war, spreading Love amongst the masses, to put on a global party Down by the Potomac.

So, hear for your headphones, party blaster speakers, boom-box, cubicle pod-stax, or just to crank to the heavens above, comes the medley that could only be the creation of The Howie Lunge Band:

The Howie Lunge Band - Obamakan

Personnel:
Howie: Drums, bass, hammond, left-speaker rhythm guitar and Neil vox
Howie: Right speaker lead guitar and all other vocals

I'd never heard that Osmonds song before. Nice.
