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.
The top 600 songs of the 60s from Sirius XM Radio's 60s on 6 Channel in 2019 will continue this week. But before that, I will pay tribute with three songs to baseball legend, Willie Mays, who passed away June 18 at the age of 93.

Hello! As my weekend is going to be a busy and fun one with friends, I won't be able to present a new edition of Come by the Hills for you this week. However, in honour of the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere, we'll be revisiting an episode filled with songs about the sun, the moon, the stars and even more, which was broadcast live on the eve of the solar eclipse back in April. So, have fun taking this trip back to April 7, 2024, and next week, it'll be Canada Day on Come by the Hills!

It was scarcely three months ago that we were showcasing The Road Back Home, a live album recorded by Loreena McKennitt at a couple of Ontario Folk festivals in the summer of 2023. Now, in honour of the thirtieth anniversary of her 1994 album called The Mask and Mirror and just ahead of the launch of Loreena's Mask and Mirror thirtieth Anniversary tour, she has released a live version of the original album, plus two extra live tracks. These were recorded at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco in 1994 and were meant to be syndicated as a radio program in the US and Canada.
