There I was, minding my own business working on the computer, when a series of unforeseen events caused a massive crash. Now there is never a good time for a computer crash to happen, but I think you would agree with me that one of the worst times for a crash to happen is 90 minutes before a show that a whole lot of people were going to tune into.

The Swallows were one of the most underrated R&B vocal groups of the early 1950s. Hailing from Baltimore, they only scored 2 top 10 R&B hits during their 3 year stint with King Records, but collectors and aficionados know their catalog inside and out. The Swallows’ original lead tenor, Eddie Rich, joins Matt The Cat on the “Juke In The Back” with his first-hand account of scoring a hit record, life on the road, segregation and playing with the top artists of the day.

Love is in the air this week on “A Cuppa at the Mosens”, Thursday 9:00 – 11:00 p.m. EST on mushroomfm.com and in all your fav music apps. With Valentine’s Day around the corner, couples will be sharing loving glances over candlelit dinners and soft music, and singles who haven’t paired up yet will be hiding beneath the covers with the cat and remote, muting every commercial on flowers, teddy bears, and overpriced chocolate.

From the “I must get around to this sometime” department, I’m pleased to let you know that The Mosen Explosion now has a Facebook group.
The Mosen Explosion has been going for a very long time, so it’s understandable that many of our listeners have gotten to know each other through the show.
Sometimes it’s fun to continue a discussion when the show is over. Perhaps you have ideas that we might consider for a future show. Maybe you have memories of some music we played or some event we talked about.

When you hear the dying strains of Van Halen's Happy Trails signalling the end of The Mosen Explosion for another week, don't touch your PC, your mobile device or your internet radio and join me in The Early Years on Mushroom FM.
Hello, I'm Steve Cutway and my musical focus is the 50s and 60s and it's more entertaining than the Super Bowl!

As I write this wee missive, there’s a break in the big game that’s going on in the world this weekend. New Zealand is playing Australia in a cricket match that will decide the Chappell Hadley trophy. Two fiercely competitive nations who have fought in wars together as mates, but are mighty sporting adversaries in the beautiful game of cricket. By the time the Mosen Explosion airs, we’ll know who takes the trophy. Oh, be still my heart! Heart, be still!
Celtic music is filled with songs which are as long or perhaps longer than the best Prog Rock anthems. Alright, so we have no equivalent to Jethro Tull's Thick as a Brick, but we do have some pretty lengthy entries. I thought it was high time we showcased some of these amazing songs with an episode dedicated almost entirely to them.

This week, we travel back 70 years with our ol’ Rockola Jukebox to spotlight the biggest Rhythm & Blues jukebox hits from 1947. In part two of two, we’ll focus on the biggest jukebox jivers from the second half of 1947, including the only charting singles for Bill Johnson & His Musical Notes and The Floyd Hunt Quartette. Louis Jordan continues to dominate the year with two more #1 platters this week and R&B stalwarts Roy Milton, Johnny Moore’s Three Blazers, Joe Liggins & His Honeydrippers and The Ink Spots continue to score massive jukebox hits.

This week on “A Cuppa At the Mosens” we’re getting social! No not Facebook or Twitter; however, they may factor into the discussion. In this ever-changing world of social interactions where people seem busier than ever before, it can be difficult to find your place in society. Whether it be a volunteer role, community group, church, or participating in a favourite hobby, or just making friends. For blind people and others with disabilities, this can sometimes be a frustrating and often disheartening experience.
