** SPOILER ALERT! This show will air on UMFM on Aug. 13 but is being released early as a podcast to commemorate Jim Bryson’s appearance in Winnipeg and at The Trout Forest Music Festival. Enjoy it in advance of the live broadcast, load it up for the ride home from Trout, or just ignore this and listen “live” on Sunday, as you wish! **
It’s our 1000th episode, but in true TTBTGH fashion, we’re going to forego the festivities for another week so we can do something a little special. In hour 1, we’ve got some exciting upcoming shows to preview. This show was recorded just before our friend Jim Bryson came to town for a show at my house and to head out to the Trout Forest Music Festival. I’ve said for years that Jim is a true cornerstone of my collection, and of Canadian music in general, because he’s helped, inspired, and produced an incredible list of artists. To prove that, I dug up as many of the projects that Jim’s been a part of as I could. In the end, I had more than 4 hours of material to fit into two hours of the show, so there’s plenty left over, but I think it presents a pretty in-depth look at the remarkable career of one of Canada’s true most valuable musicians. If you’re looking for a more straight up “best of” Jim’s own material, check out last week’s show.
Next week, I plan to have something special to mark the 1000th episode.
** Note: This show was recorded before news broke that Robbie Robertson had died. Obviously, his influence on the music that I play on this show is immense, so we’ll pay proper tribute soon. **
