Filling the first hour Running between joy and grief with a new release from a local band (J'envoie), and an 'In Memoriam' for Deviants vocalist Mick Farren. Then we disappear into the Prog landscape, only to finish with one final cut from Mick Farren.
| Very excited to started this edition of the Nightwatch with a feature on a new release from local band (Gatineau) called J'envoie. We did a bit of an 'overview' of some of their previous releases a few shows back, and this LP fulfills all promise.

| Going from 'excited' to 'grief-stricken' in one swell foop - legendary counter-culture icon, vocalist for the Deviants, and fiction/non-fiction/rock writer Mick Farren has passed away at the age of 69 from a heart attack onstage while performing. Rest in Peace, we will spend generations living up to your inspiration. |
