Saturday Morning
Saturday July 25th, 2020 with Pat Moore
Music to get your weekend started!

Good morning! Today’s feature is a most fabulous “musical story” which I have for a long time wanted to bring to the stage in it’s entirety – entitled The Man From God Knows Where, Tom Russell’s tale of his family roots, mother’s side from Norway and father’s from Ireland. You’ll hear several wonderful and recognizable voices in the 70 minute story. Each song stands on it’s own, but together they weave a wonderful story. That will be in the second hour. In the first hour, I’ll start with some jazz, and as promised last week also bring you a celebration of some black women singers. …and more cowboy culture – you were asking for more so I’m happy to oblige. As you can see, there’s quite a mix in today’s show, which we’ll end in the 3rd hour with a few more “Live Stream” samples and lots of Canadian singer-songwriters.
