It’s our last show before Santa slides down the chimney, so it’s time for our annual run-through of classic carols and oddball favourites. Merry Christmas to all!

This year is winding down, and it’s time to celebrate. We’ve got some decidedly non-cheesy Christmas tunes, and we start looking at some of our favourites from throughout the year.

Today we’re big on gifts & guests, as we get in the holiday spirit by giving away CDs & tickets aplenty, and we welcome Scott Nolan & Joanna Miller, who are set to record a new live album on Tuesday, and who released one of this year’s best local albums, Montgomery Eldorado.

Best of 2011 Compilations!
Here, at long last, is our 10th annual compilation of music that really matters. Each year we go over the huge pile of new releases and put together our own little time capsule(s), and since it’s so much work and since you’ve been such wonderful folks all year, we share it with you.
Below are the links to download your own copy of this year’s discs. As usual, there’s a mellower, folkier disc, a more rockin’ upbeat disc, a collection of the great live performances we’ve put on air this year, as well as a bunch of extra stuff that just wouldn’t fit on the CD version. Don’t forget to download the liner notes and cover artwork, because we’re especially proud of our graphic design skills this year.

It’s been a great year for Winnipeg music, but there’s another great disc yet to come, with the release of Roads and Roads by The JD Edwards Band. JD drops by to chat about the new disc and the upcoming CD release show. We’ve got plenty of other great local music, including previews of upcoming exciting shows by The Magnificent 7s, Scott Nolan, and The New Meanies. And, we drop a couple of new holiday classics.

We don’t really get excited about sports around here very often, but today the Bombers are playing for the Grey Cup, and they can use all the help they can get. With that in mind, we send out a set of Blue & Gold songs that will hopefully help the boys win the big game. There are a couple of shows this week that we’re excited about, including the return of our pal Andy Sheppard and his new project Find the Others, and the legendary Gordon Lightfoot!

Live in the studio, we’re once again joined by one of Winnipeg’s finest songwriters, Jeffrey Hatcher, who chats about Hatcher-Briggs and The Blue Shadows, and debuts his new song about Billy Cowsill, and much more!

Luckily, I made it off my duff and out to Neilfest this weekend, and it got me thinking (as I often do) about how amazing our local musicians are. Truly world class, and we’ve got some of the best today, including some songs from Hatcher Briggs, who do a rare live show next weekend. Also next weekend is the return of the amazing CR Avery (along with Wil). We’ve also got some neat new music, some requests, and even a trip to the opera/opry!

Steel Belted Radio – Nov. 17, 2011
Tonight we kick things off with a few classics from our namesake, Mike Plume, as well as celebrating Gordon Lightfoot’s 73rd birthday. We look forward to next week’s show, when we’ll be joined by Hatcher-Briggs, and we look forward to Neilfest, CR Avery, and more. Best of all this week, we get a call from the most special caller of all, Santa!
