Random Song Encounters

By: Gene Vincent
  • Summary

  • The idea is presenting a weekly random playlist of songs with commentary, and no specific ties to decade, genre, popularity, or anything else. Mostly from the world of rock and pop, but occasionally venturing into other musical genres when the urge strikes. Something to keep me occupied and out of trouble…

  • S2; Episode 41 - Palermo (Kingdom of the Sun)
    May 7 2025

    This week on Random Song Encounters, we’re coming to you remotely once again. After departing Croatia, we’ve arrived in Palermo, Sicily, to present Episode 41. This will be the final remote episode of this journey before we return to the SoCal Musical Compound for our next presentation.


    Episode 41 is titled Palermo - Kingdom of the Sun, inspired by the nickname given to the city during the 12th century. The name reflects Palermo’s unique position as the meeting point of Europe and Africa, as well as its remarkable annual sunshine hours—over 2,500. Perfect for inspiring music and our Episode 41 line-up.


    With the podcast wrapped up for the week, we’re ready to explore Palermo’s vibrant streets and cultural treasures before embarking on the next leg of our adventure and heading home. Thank you for tuning in, and we welcome your comments, questions, and suggestions to help grow our show. Have a wonderful week, and don’t forget to share the good stuff!

  • S2; Episode 40 - Dubrovnik Bound
    Apr 30 2025

    Greetings from the stunning shores of Dubrovnik, Croatia! Our journey continues as Random Song Encounters takes its show on the road. After an incredible start in Venice, Italy, we've landed in this historic coastal city for Episode 40, 'Dubrovnik Bound.'


    Once we complete this episode week, we’re off to explore and on the hunt for ćevapčići—a local delicacy served with onions, flatbread, and kajmak—while curating your weekly dose of random songs to match the vibe. From the canals of Venice to the ancient walls of Dubrovnik, it’s been an unforgettable trip so far, and we’re thrilled to bring you along.


    Next week, we’ll be broadcasting from another cinematic destination—think The Godfather series. Any guesses? Don’t forget to share your song suggestions or travel stories with us—let’s keep sharing the good stuff!
