Good morning, music lovers everywhere! Today we open with ‘The Founders,’ paying tribute to the artists who inspired the bands and singers who inspired us to start this radio station. Got all that?
Here’s your musical history lesson:
9:00 a.m. The Founders: Various Artists
We pay tribute to the pioneers of rock and roll today, celebrating the music of Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, Little Richard, Bo Diddley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis Presley, The Everly Brothers, Buddy Holly, Big Mama Thornton, Big Joe Turner, Hank Williams, Bill Haley & His Comets, Ray Charles, The Drifters, Roy Orbison, Robert Johnson, Carl Perkins, Eddie Cochran, Muddy Waters, Johnny Cash and more!
4:00 p.m. In The Spotlight: The Music of Bobbie Gentry
This afternoon we give you a Spotlight feature from Bobbie Gentry, one of the most innovative artists of the sixties who was also a recluse at heart. She much preferred to write for others to sing, but then she released Ode To Billie Joe and exploded on the music scene. When she’d had enough, she simply faded away, leaving us a legacy of fantastic music.
8:00 p.m. Neil Young Live at Massey Hall, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, January 19, 1971
A Mermaid Lounge favorite gives us a concert from his homeland to close out the programming for Thursday.
