The Work Week Begins With The Supergroups, Live Warren Zevon, and Fillmore Week With Hot Tuna on Monday, April 29, 2024

Good morning, music lovers. We start off the day today with music from the Supergroups, then we have two live shows coming up, and one that kicks off Fillmore Week here!

Here’s your Monday musical lineup:

10:00 a.m. Sounds of The Supergroups: Various Artists UPDATED!

We start the day paying respect to the Supergroups who have given us so much great music, like CSNY, The Traveling Wilburys, Supertramp, Manassas, Cream, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Trio (nobody ever talks about Ronstadt-Harris-Parton as a Supergroup but that’s exactly what they were), The Highwaymen (Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings & Kris Kristofferson), Derek & The Dominos, Blind Faith, and The Super, Super Blues Group (Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf and Bo Diddley).

We’ve got some new-to-the-station live Warren Zevon today. I saw Mr. Bad Example live at the Berklee College of Music back in the day and everyone was pissed off that he was two hours late and we had to listen to 52 versions of Year Of The Cat by Al Stewart while waiting for him. But once he started singing, all was forgiven. It was a great show.

7:00 p.m. FILLMORE WEEK: Hot Tuna Live at The Fillmore West, San Francisco, CA, March 4, 1988

We kick off Fillmore Week with a great blues-rock band in Hot Tuna, built out of the ashes of The Jefferson Airplane by Jack Casady and Jorma Kaukonen. Over the years, members have come and gone, but Casady and Kaukonen have always been the anchors.

We’re at Midweek With ‘The British Are Coming’ EP, Guy Clark, and The Traveling Wilburys In the Spotlight, Wednesday, May 31, 2023

4:00 p.m. Singer-Songwriter Series: The Music of Guy Clark

The late, great Guy Clark takes his second spin as our featured singer-songwriter for the week. I have a hard time picking a favorite from this guy but Texas1947 is pretty spectacular.

8:00 p.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of The Traveling Wilburys

They were the greatest supergroup ever. There may never be another like them. They were just five guys who became friends, hung out, and played music together. That’s how the legend of the Wilburys began. Tonight we put them In the Spotlight where they belong.

We are on 24/7. Before, in between and after our programs, The Music Mermaid treats you to our wide Open Stream of 27,000 songs. We’re totally free of charge and we do not run any commercial advertising. Ever. Give us a whirl.
