This week on Deep Dive we enjoy the incredible talents and voice of Judy Collins. And we have a Fun Guy guest and a big fan to introduce her. We look at both sides now, experience amazing grace, and travel someday soon.

Tune in at 4 PM Eastern Monday, which is currently 7 AM Tuesday in most of Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, which at the moment is 9 PM in most of Eastern Australia. Just sidle up to that SmartSpeaker of yours and ask it nicely to play Mushroom FM, and in the blink of an eye, you will be there. The magic is amazing.

Well hello all ye Hillsians and Hillsians-yet-to-be! We're only a day away (plus a few hours, I suppose) from another episode of Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic music show on Mushroom FM! This week, I'll have songs about spring, a few St. Patrick's Day left-overs including a request that I didn't get to last week, songs about both Whisky and Whiskey, and a neat story about one of our favourite artists and an intrepid listener! There's also a punk version of The Massacre at Glencoe that I thought we'd try out. So, drop by for a bit, won't you?

After you've enjoyed Decades in HD with PJ Noce tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 PM to 05:00 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.

From this Saturday at 12am Eastern, that’s 5pm Saturday in NZ, 3pm in Sydney and 4am in the UK, and repeated every four hours throughout the day, it’s the described movies True Grit from 1969, and The Desperate Hours from 1955.
True Grit is a 1969 American Western film directed by Henry Hathaway, starring John Wayne as U.S. Marshal Rooster Cogburn, Glen Campbell as La Boeuf, and Kim Darby as Mattie Ross.

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.
This week, Matt The Cat looks at one of the greatest Doo Wop groups, The Cleftones, through an archival interview with the late Herbie Cox. Cox was a founding member of this unique sounding vocal group from Queens, NY.

This week on Deep Dive we enjoy the harmonic talents of the Canadian band the Irish Rovers. We meet the wild rover, share the problem of the orange and the green, and hear of the sad demise of the unicorn.

St. Patrick's Day is on its way, and so is Come by the Hills, the Folk and celtic music show on Mushroom FM. This week, not only are we celebrating St. Patrick's Day with our usual somewhat wreckless abandon, but we're celebrating ST. Patrick's Day on St. Patrick's Day itself, at least in terms of the Mushroom FM official time zone. How can that be? Well, starting this week, Come by the Hills is returning to its ancestral air time of Sundays at 8:00 PM Eastern! What's on this edition of the show? Well, put simply, we've got three hours of music from or about Ireland!

After you've enjoyed Decades in HD with PJ Noce tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 PM to 05:00 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.

Just a quick reminder in case you've missed our references to this on the air and Sara's previous announcement, that starting this weekend there's a change to our schedule.

PJ Noce can now be heard with Decades in HD at 2 PM on Saturdays. This creates a similar block of content right throughout Saturday, starting with Michael Godin's Treasure Island Oldies at 7. So if you enjoy this, you'll want to keep us locked in all day long and into the wee small hours of Sunday.
