More Beach Boys music to celebrate Brian Wilson's 80th birthday this week on The Early Years!
After you've enjoyed Come By The Hills with Sara Hillis, tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 to 05:00, don't touch that dial, device, PC, Mac or smart speaker and join me for The Early Years, where and when you'll hear the best music from Rock and Roll's Golden Age (its first quarter century) with an occasional nod to other decades and genres.
Brian Wilson, leader of the Beach Boys, solo artist and leader of The Brian Wilson Band since 2003, turned 80 June 20.
Longtime Early Years listeners know that The Beach Boys are my favourite band so I can't think of a better reason than an 80th birthday celebration to focus on them again this week. I will finish my chronological survey of their hits, picking up where I left off last week in June 1973 and continuing to November 1988 and their last #1 hit. Many of this week's songs you may not have heard before because they didn't get a lot of airplay at the time.
You can contact me any time by email at steve at mushroomfm.com with comments about the show and suggestions for future shows.
So join me, Steve Cutway, for The Early Years, when I make musical and magical memories playing Beach Boys music from 1973-88, tomorrow afternoon at 05:00, after Come By The Hills with Sara Hillis and before Dan Sweeney's One Hit Wonders. The show replays Wednesday morning at 07:00 AM, after Deep Dive with Graeme Innes and before Anthony Unleashed with Anthony Horvath, only on Mushroom FM, the home of the fun guys, making four decades of magic mushroom memories!
