Hello again! Sara Hillis here to tell you that this week's episode of Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic Music Show, is brought to you by the letters L and M, and the number 3. Why the number 3? Because we've got three hours of great Folk and Celtic music for your listening pleasure! As for L and M, we're featuring the music of Canadian singer/songwriter Loreena McKennitt, as it was her birthday on February 17. We're also going to feature live music from Loreena McKennitt and other artists, because I think many of us are craving the concert atmosphere about now.

in a week with no football or baseball, here is an idea. Come on down to the Doo-wop corner on mushroomfm.com and join me Mike Moran for the best loved doo-wop songs and groups from the fifties and sixties. Tell your smart speakers/ alexa... to play mushroomfm. We are hanging on the corner every sunday evening 6: to 8: PM. ET. and Thursday mornings from 7: AM. to 9: am ET. Come on down and grab some harmony.

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.

The Snowman pays tribute to the late Rush Limbaugh this Saturday, February 20, during the first hour, starting at 8PM eastern. A monster talent has just departed the scene. If you hated him, you didn't know him.

Affter you've enjoyed Mosen At Large, Mushroom FM's premier opinion show, tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 to 05:00, during which I hope all your questions get answered and all your opinions get heard, don't touch that dial, device, PC, Mac or smart speaker and join me in The Early Years where and when you'll enjoy the best music from Rock and Roll's Golden Age (its first quarter century) with an occasional nod to other decades and genres.

this week on Damo's All Day Breakfast, I'm trying my hand at smoking beef ribs for the first time. It's not a common cut of meat here in Australia, and it certainly isn't something I've done before, but we'll talk through what I plan to do, and if anyone has any better suggestions on how to cook these I'd be keen to hear them.

I also have a rather interesting cover this week, which features violins and chellows of all things, so make sure you tune in for that.

From this Saturday at 12am Eastern, that’s 6pm Saturday in NZ, 4pm in Sydney and 5am in the UK, and repeated every four hours throughout the day, it’s the described movies Out of Africa from 1985 and All the Right Moves from 1983.
Out of Africa is a 1985 American epic romantic drama film directed and produced by Sydney Pollack, and starring Meryl Streep and Robert Redford.

Kia ora Mosen At Largers.

I’ve been a bit prolific in the podcast feed this week, which means that when I publish the podcast version of the live Mushroom FM show, it will be episode 100.

This show has taken off in astounding ways and I can only say a profound thanks for all the discussion and contributions that have made that possible. We’ve debated, helped each other out, reminisced and had a few laughs, and I think that is very special.
