JASON: As you know, Rush loved music, as does your guide today, the former congressman known as Jason Lewis. I\u2019m telling you, music has a way of elevating your mood when you need it. It really does — and it\u2019s gotta be a tune you can whistle, right? I\u2019m so tired of this stuff. “What\u2019s the Melody?” “Who needs a melody! Just percussion. That\u2019s good enough.” No, no, no. It\u2019s gotta be a tune you can whistle, or it ain\u2019t music.<\/p>\n
Well, Rush was a deejay before he was a talk show host, and so people used to listen — and still listen — to the Rush Limbaugh program and marvel at the great selection of bumper music, something I took great pride in that when I was doing my own show as well. And you got the story behind the bumper music. So that\u2019s why we\u2019re gonna move into something today called Road Trip with Rush, where every Friday we\u2019ll add a new song to a playlist of Rush\u2019s favorites, and the Stones were right there at the top<\/a>. Roll audio 10.<\/p>\n
