Here’s your Saturday lineup:

There are just some bands you are drawn to. This is one of those bands, in fact. I became an early adopter with A Horse With No Name. Over the years, they have made a lot of great music, much of which is buried on their albums. That’s the beauty of America. They were also innovative enough to catch the eye of a guy named George Martin.

3:00 p.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of Rickie Lee Jones

The Spotlight is on Rickie Lee Jones, another female artists who is difficult to box into a style of music. Over her five-decade career she has recorded in various musical styles, including rock, R&B, pop, soul, and jazz.

Whew. That’s quite a lineup. And it’s all free. No lie. Here’s the other thing: We’re on 24/7; not just when we have schedule programs. We’ve got more than 27,000 songs to share with you. The button is below.

Spend Sunday With Donovan, The Zombies Live in Concert and Songs About The Night Later, on September 22, 2024

Good morning, music lovers and weekenders! We are here with a Donovan Spotlight feature, a reunited Zombies concert from 2008 and our ‘Here Comes The Night’ EP!

Here’s your Sunday Funday lineup:

10:00 a.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of Donovan

We open up the festivities with Scottish musician, songwriter and record producer, Donovan, who emerged from the British folk scene in 1965. He was a fixture on the charts and the radio with a string of hits in the late sixties that have stood the test of time.

The Zombies are one of those sixties bands that kind of fell through the cracks for some inexplicable reason. As one music critic noted, perhaps it was because there was so much good music at the time.Their legend has surely grown over the decades and it is clear that they were one of the finest, yet most underappreciated, bands of the sixties. By the time of this reunion tour, some of the members were gone. However, vocalist Colin Blunstone and keyboard wizard Rod Argent were there.

5:00 p.m. Here Comes The Night: Various Artists

We close out the programming and move into the after dark hours with songs about the night from Warren Zevon, the J. Geils Band, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Them, The Beatles, Van Morrison, Patti Smith, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Bruce Springsteen, The Kinks, Electric Prunes, Phoebe Snow, Joe Walsh, The Eagles, The Doors, John Cougar Mellencamp, Poco, Emmylou Harris, Neil Diamond, The Animals, The Rolling Stones, Don McLean, Steve Winwood, The Traveling Wilburys, Sam Cooke, Jimmy Buffet, Bonnie Raitt and more!
