Greetings! Sara Hillis here to let you know about this week's impendingly imminent episode of Come by the Hills! Yes, in under three hours as of this posting, I'll be getting underway with a fantastic three hours that promises to contain something for everyone. Two weeks ago, I launched a recurring feature, at least for the summer, about Woody Guthrie, and this week, I have two of his Dust Bowl ballads, as they have come to be called. Speaking of ballads, I've got a piece called "Ballad for Americans," which is a cantata written in 1939 and which I think you'll find interesting.

This Monday, July 7, Sir Ringo Starr turns 85, and Mushroom FM’s Mosen Explosion is throwing him a birthday bash befitting a Beatle!
That’s right—the entire Mosen Explosion is devoted to celebrating the life, music, and legacy of Ringo Starr. From his unforgettable moments with the Beatles to his fun, feel-good solo career and legendary All-Starr Band collaborations, we’ll be shining the spotlight on the drummer who brought the beat—and the warmth—to a generation.
What’s on the setlist?

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 on Deep Dive we enjoy the excellent sounds of Ausie band Sky Hooks. We learn that ego is not a dirty word , worry that all our friends are getting married, and experience a horror movie. And, as an added bonus, because this show was made just before Christmas several years ago, we have a Christmas in July feel. It's all part of the fun on the home of the fun guys Mushroom FM.

Hello! Sara Hillis here to let you know that, though this week's episode of Come by the Hills is a rerun from 2024, it celebrates Canada Day, which is coming up on July 1. Originally aired on June 30, 2024, it contains many jems of Canadian Folk music along with vintage audio from patriotic film shorts which used to air on Canadian TV, and of course a lot of witty banter. So, hang out and have fun!
Catch Come by the Hills on Sunday at 8:00 PM Eastern, or check out the replay on Tuesday, Canada Day itself, at 5:00 AM Eastern! Enjoy, and elbows up!

Lloyd Price would become one of the great hit-makers of early Rock n' Roll, but this is the story of the "soul that came BEFORE Rock n' Roll."
