... a long, strange trip... with mike

Lately it occurs to me... what a long, strange trip it's been*  

Saturday 3:30 – 5:00 pm

A personal journey through a lifetime of listening.  Predominantly non-mainstream rock, modern & post-modern jazz and related styles, extraordinary pop and avant garde sounds. 

Doo wop and dub, funk and folk, psych and skronk, bluegrass and bossa nova, post-rock and pre-rock, musique concrete and bubblegum, the weird and the wonderful.  

Yes.  Both kinds of music. 

A uniquely expressive montage presented with biographical, discographical and musicological background (maybe) and with reference to the broader cultural and social context (maybe not). 

An immersive experience for imaginative and adventurous listeners who like to be engaged, excited, intrigued, and sometimes simply astonished.  Attention, thrill seekers! 

 

Side trip: Reality is Only Temporary (Monday 10:30 pm).

*Words by Robert Hunter (1941-2019) from The Grateful Dead's song Truckin' (Ice Nine Pub. Co./ASCAP) from the album American Beauty (Warner Bros., Nov 1970).
