November 11, 2019 – #BecomeUngovernable Radio

Good Morning, Ungovernables! Today we celebrate two birthdays, that of Booker T. Jones of Booker T. & the MG’s, and the timeless Neil Young.

Booker T. & he MGs

Here’s today’s line-up:

11:00 a.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of Booker T. & The MG’s

Today we pay tribute to the instrumental R & B/funk band that helped to shape the Southern soul and Memphis soul sound. Happy Birthday, Booker T. Jones!

2:00 p.m. Album of the Week: Sweet Forgiveness by Bonnie Raitt

Sweet Forgiveness was the sixth studio album from Bonnie Raitt, and it was released in 1977. She covers songs from Jackson Browne, Del Shannon, Don Covay, Karla Bonoff, and Eric Kaz.

5:00 p.m. Bob Dylan and Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Live in Sacramento, California 6.12.86

I was cleaning out some files and found this myteriously zipped file with absolutely no title. I’m certainly glad I did!

9:00 p.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of Neil Young

Happy Birthday, Neil. He’s 74 years young today.

Take your shoes off. Set a spell. Listen to some great music.
