Summer continues for Deep Dive

Here in Australia, the weather is still hot, with thunderstorms and all the other signs of summer. And, due to the special repeat of our Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young programme last week, we still have one encore programme left in our summer series which will play next week.

It's our Deep Dive birthday edition from last May, where Chief Fun Guy Jonathan Mosen joins the programme and chooses his favourite Beatles songs, and what great choices he makes.

A tribute to David Crosby this week on the Early Years!

After you've enjoyed the return of Come By The Hills with Sara Hillis, tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 PM to 05:00 PM, don't touch that dial, device, PC, Mac or smart speaker and join Jonathan Mosen for a very special edition of The Early Years.

It's an All-Australian All day Breakfast, as the show returns live for 2023.

G'day everyone.

After a good long rest over the summer break, I'm really looking forward to being back with you live on Mushroom FM. This week in Australia, we celebrate Australia Day, so in honour of that, this week's show features all Australian artists. There's also a tasty new breakfast recipe that I've been trying this week, and I have lots to tell you about from our recent camping trip, including some new gadgets I was given over the break.

Swing Time Records this week on The Juke In The Back!

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.
In the fall of 1949, Down Beat Records owner Jack Lauderdale had a problem. DownBeat Magazine was threatening to sue him over the use of the name. Unsure of a new name, Lauderdale decided to use Swing as a placeholder along with Swing Beat Records before finally settling on Swing Time Records in March of 1950.
