It got louder as the three hours progressed.  Tacoma sound in the first hour (albeit with a Stooges cover of Louie Louie by the Kingsmen), contemporary mellow-ish in the second hour, and pretty grungey in the final hour, including a solo Kurt Cobain and a Nirvana song to commemorate the passing of Kurt Cobain 30 years ago.  We're all getting old.

This is a 2.5 hour fill in for another host, so I played a variety of some of my favorites, some of which are included on Notes by NW, some not.

This was a general interest episode with no particular theme, just some of my favorites with a PNW connection.

I filled in for another host on Friday, March 16, and here's the show.  The first 2 hours includes a bunch of my musical choices, including the Stones and Jerry Jeff Walker. Enjoy.

This program includes a composition by Seattle musician Jon Pontrello, who performs a ballad about the sinking of the SS Clallam in the waters between Diamond Point and Whidbey Island 120 years ago this month in which 55 souls perished. Oh, yes, and a bunch of raucous stuff in the third hour.    Everything in balance.  Thanks for listening.

You'll only hear the music from that show....I was off the air for two months over the holidays and didn't record the live show due to operator error. At the end of the program I featured three Nivana songs, inspired by having read Nivana drummer and Foo Fighters lead singer, Dave Grohl's excellent autobiography, Storyteller .  He's funny, humble, and a great person.  Oh,  yes,...

This was a really fun show, as it included covers of Beatles songs by PNW artists, and the first hour culminated with the debut of the first new Beatles song in decades, Now and Then, which began as a lousy demo by John Lennon in 1978.  Yoko Ono gave it to the surviving Beatles in 1994, and George added some guitar to the Lennon tracks.  But the technology then wasn't like it is today.  Throu...

The first hour of the show included a live in-studio interview with the Randall Wolf Band, a local Sequim group of really nice people and fine musicians.  They are playing the Field Art Center this weekend, and we spoke about their music, their musical influences and other random things.  Plus they performed a few live songs in the studio in addition to some recorded songs.  The second two hours w...

Excuse the missing beginning of the show, operator error.
