Another longer than usual (and technically challenging) show started with some old school hip hop and moved quickly to a lot of Kinks, due to Dave Davies’ show here earlier this week, and some Chuck Prophet as well, after his show here Monday.
Also looked ahead to the Jay Farrar show next week when he’ll be playing the whole of Son Volt’s debut “Trace” and ended up with some music by a band whose reunion tour I sadly missed altogether.
Here’s what I played on the radio tonight:
