Celebrations and tributes this week on The Early Years!
And after you've enjoyed Come By The Hills with Sara Hillis with her tribute to the Patron Saint of Wales, tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 PM to 05:00 PM, 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 first forty years with nods to other decades and genres.
Well, that nasty spiked virus we know as COVID 19 has departed so I'm back this week with a new show.
My long-time listener and much longer friend, Hank in Ottawa, who has contributed a number of theme suggestions to The Early Years, celebrated his birthday last Saturday. COVID saw to it that I didn't get to commemorate it then so I'm doing it this week.
Hank identified 5 artists whom he considers or has considered among his all-time favourites and suggested two songs by each of them. I'll play those songs as well as some additions of mine by those artists.
In hour 2, I'll return to the theme I started two weeks ago that got interrupted by the viral intruder last week - artists who left us in December 2022 and January 2023. I was paying tribute to Dino Danelli, the drummer of The Young Rascals and The Rascals and I'll finish that tribute this week.
Next week, it's a temporal show.
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 celebrating a birthday and remembering an artist who left us in December 2022, 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, only on Mushroom FM, the home of the fun guys, making four decades of magical mushroom memories!
