Monday Brings Our ‘Out In The Cold’ Playlist, Then the Gregg Allman Band and The Grateful Dead, October 28, 2024

Good morning, musicologists. Today we’re ‘Out In the Cold’ then it’s live Gregg Allman Band and a Grateful Dead ‘Spotlight’ feature.

Here’s your musical lineup:

10:00 a.m. Out In The Cold: Various Artists

Not an EP, but good enough to start the day! Songs about the weather with Albert King, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Bob Dylan, Johnny Rivers, Bill Withers, The Association, Neil Young, Martha & The Vandellas, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Doors, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, Electric Light Orchestra and more!

4:00 p.m. The Gregg Allman Band Live at Wolfgang’s, San Francisco, CA, May 14, 1987

Afternoon brings a live performance from Gregg Allman’s ‘other’ band at Wolfgang’s. Back in the day, Wolfgang’s was the place, a small 600-seat venue which is now defunct. Still, it’s easier to remember who did not play the venue than those who did. It was that popular.

8:00 p.m. In The Spotlight: The Music of The Grateful Dead

I’m one of those people who likes the Dead’s studio music better than their live performances. Founding member and bass player Phil Lesh passed away this past week, and we air this in honor of him today.

Yes, it’s a return to the work day today. Mondays are always rough, but we can get you through! We’re on 24/7 with no commercial interruption playing the best music on the planet. And we’re free. Just close your door and pull up a tab. The button is below.

If It’s Tuesday, It Must Be Bluesday With The Ladies, the J. Geils Band and ‘Live’ Gregg Allman, January 2, 2024

Good morning, bluesologists! The second day of the new year is a Tuesday Bluesday and we’ve got a blues trifecta today that includes some new ‘live’ Gregg Allman Band!

Here’s your Tuesday Bluesday lineup:

9:00 a.m.  Ladies Sing The Blues: Various Artists

The ladies take over the lounge to open up our programming. You’ll hear from Billie Holiday, Big Mama Thornton, Ruth Brown, Nina Simone, Janis Joplin, Koko Taylor, Bonnie Raitt, Christine McVie, Marcia Ball, Ellen McIlwaine, Susan Tedeschi, Irma Thomas, Tracy Nelson, Etta James, Linda Ronstadt, Sippie Wallace, Bessie Smith, Shawn Murphy, Angela Strehli, Aretha Franklin, The Blues Broads and more!

4:00 p.m.  Album of The Week: Bloodshot by The J. Geils Band

We have some fine blues-rock coming up this afternoon from Boston’s original bad boys.

Gregg Allman’s ‘other’ band when he wasn’t recording and touring with the Allman Brothers Band and when he didn’t feel like being a solo artist. Much like our friend Tom Petty with Mudcrutch. Tonight we have them live from Wolfgang’s in San Francisco.
