Episode #726

We hit a lot of stops on today’s show, including the ditch, and had a lot of fun along the way. Lots of new music, requests, a look at an exciting upcoming show, a bit of a tribute to the great Willie P Bennett as we head toward the 10th anniversary of his death, and much more!

Episode #723

It’s a good thing that I’m so slow making a “Best of” list each year (when I actually do), because I’m constantly finding new music from years past and re-evaluating the choices. This week I discovered two albums worthy of a spot right near the top of the list, and spun some music from those as well as some more worthy contenders. We also had some great requests & suggestions from listeners.

Episode #718

Last week’s chat with Stephen Stanley got us thinking about his producer, bandmate, label head, and friend Chris Brown. He just happens to have a swell new album of his own, so we invited him to chat on today’s show. We also caught up with Keri Latimer about the vicious rumours about our house band’s demise and their upcoming show alongside those D. Rangers, and we still had time for some new music, requests, and dedications.
