The "Juke In The Back" focuses on the " soul that came before rock n' roll," the records that inspired Elvis, Buddy Holly, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and countless others.
After you've enjoyed The Variety Vault with Paul Merrell, Wednesday afternoon from 2 to 4 PM, don't touch that dial, device, PC, Mac, smart speaker or tablet and join me for The Early Years, where and when you'll hear the best music from the first quarter century of Rock with occasional nods to other decades and genres.
This week on Deep Dive we enjoy - through an archived show - the music of American singer, composer and talented entertainer Neil Sadaka who passed away recently. We enjoy laughter in the rain, find breakin' up hard to do, and wonder about a diary.
Tune in at 4 PM Eastern Monday, which is Tuesday morning in Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, which is evening in Eastern Australia.
It's easy! Just tell that SmartSpeaker of yours to play Mushroom FM, and you will be there faster than a speeding bullet.
Hello! Sara Hillis here to let you know what's happening this weekend on Come by the Hills, Mushroom FM's Folk and Celtic music show! As we are coming up on Saint Patrick's Day, it will be an all-Irish episode on Sunday, and this time, I've decided to revisit last year's Saint Patrick's Day episode from March 16th, 2025. This was also the occasion of the first anniversary of Come by the Hills returning to its original time-slot after having spent some years on Saturday afternoons. I hope you'll enjoy this encore presentation, and happy Saint Patrick's Day!

Because of a quick trip to Chicago to work with blind students, I will not be with you on The Song Remembers When this Sunday. I have submitted a cover request, so we'll see who might present their own version for you. However, I will be back next Sunday with more in my series of women in music. Please let me know if there are special women or songs you'd like to hear.

This week, the "Juke In The Back" presents a unique program designed to put the listener in a front row seat for a live rhythm review performance. So often, we wonder what a live program would have been like before the dawn of Rock n' Roll? Well, thanks to the preservation of this 2 week program in Los Angeles from late September and early October of 1951, we can catch a glimpse.

This week on Deep Dive we enjoy the musical talents of American singer and leader of the Supremes Diana Ross. We enjoy sweet summer time livin', touch me in the morning, and hear about endless love.
