After the all-Japanese show last Nightwatch, my conscience led me to the only eventuality I could consider - do an all-Canadian show... and, better than that, a predominantly local show. Starting out in the folk vein, hitting the rock 'n' rolls, passing through the prog and psych/experimental side and exiting thru the auspices of jazz. A classic CKCU show for variety and CanCon.

|
| He Don't Dance Mere Humans - This is Rock N Roll
|

|
| Moving rather abruptly from the R'n'R to some Post rock, starting with a Nightwatch Favourite, and one of the few non-local tracks in the show: Nomeansno - may they record again! |

| That set got away from me - I just couldn't interrupt the flow, so it went a bit long. Oh, well, it got us close to jazz, which is where we finish out for tonight! Back to the reg'lar ol' Nightwatch next week, promise!! |
| Leviathan Atlantis Jazz Ensemble - Oceanic Suite

Thanks for the show. I love the mix of prog and jazz. If you hadn't said so, I never would have guessed any of this stuff was Canadian.
