With so many wonderful vocal groups present during the 1950s, it took a few distinct ones to lead the pack and blaze the trail. The Heartbeats are always right up there with The Clovers, Harptones, Moonglows, Flamingos and the other leaders who carried the torch lit by the Orioles and Ravens during the late ’40s.

So Who is Greg, and what’s so special about his roast beef? You’re probably asking?

Sara Hillis here to tell you about this week's very special edition of Come by the Hills, Mushroom FM's Folk and Celtic music show. This week, we're doing something we've done periodically over the years, featuring multiple versions of a song. In this case, it's the strange tale of the Two Sisters. It involves love, jealousy, murder, magical harps and/or fiddles and justice from beyond the grave, and sometimes even swans. We'll be playing several versions of this song throughout the show and sharing what we know of its origins and history.

This week on Deep Dive we listen to the dulcet tones of welsh singer Mary Hopkin, one of the sweetest voices in the Mushroom decades. We learn that those were the days, hear about the importance of puppies, and say goodbye. We also hear two songs in languages other than english.

Tune in at 4 PM Eastern Monday, 6 AM Tuesday in Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Eastern on Wednesday, 8 PM in Eastern Australia. If you love clear sounding female vocalists this is a show not to be missed.
