Hi Chris, I was engrossed in a bit of a walk down memory lane. Tonight, we had our CKCU Volunteer Engagement Committee meeting. After the meeting, I was sent a PDF of an issue of Trans FM from 1981! Wow,. There are going to be a lot of ‘walks down memory lane” for us long-time listeners (and hosts) in the lead up to CKCU’s 50th birthday!

Trans FM: "you can pick one up all over town" :-)

Not anymore I’m afraid. They are thinking about making a special one-of-a-kind 50th anniversary edition. I remember reading it when it WAS in print.

I was being nostalgic Shelley ;-)

I was also sent another edition that came out in November 1980–when CKCU was just 5 years old.

I wouldn’t want to see ANYone falling down the stairs—naked or otherwise.

I hadn’t heard Walk Under Ladders in ages!

I wondered whether that Cramps tune was based on a real-life event - at a post gig party or something similar.

Walk Under ladders cover very different from Jan Armatrading's original, hadn't heard it before researching the show.

Gosh, I hope that there weren’t any naked people falling down the stairs! Wow, you found this Nylons version of Up The Ladder To The Roof-I’m sure I’ve seen them do this song live. Excellent show as always. Nighty night!
