Ready for whatever music you throw our way - always interesting & never boring

Wally, as always, thanks for listening (and chiming) in....

Steve Kirkland (host)
In the highlights on the CKCU website for tonight's show I said there would be no 70s music... the Pink Floyd cover is a 2000 recording of a 1975 song, so doesn't count...

My brother & I saw Echo in Montreal just before album #2 came out - it was a great show. Ps Thanks for the mention.
