Shelley Ann Morris
Hi Chris, I love these travels back in time. Did I hear a little trace of In A White Room in the first song on tonight’s show? Did I imagine it?

Shelley Ann Morris
I was introduced to Billy Cobham’s music through CKCU—and other jazz fans, too.

Chris Lyne (host)
Interesting question Shelley, I hadn't noticed.... I'll have a closer listen in the morning. Oh, it already is!

This Cobham album opened a lot of doors for me and I still enjoy it.

Hi Terry, I noticed that the opening note is also the opening sound on the station i'd s "Other Side Of The Coin". I think I might recognise a certain voice too, Terry :-)

I will have to listen to Safe From Harm — really interesting how one song becomes a part of another. Thanks for pointing that out.

"Mystery" was a beautiful track!

I never would have guessed that this was The James Gang! What a surprise. Great show as always. Nighty-night everyone.

Hi Jane, it's a beauty, isn't it. I always enjoyed playing long forgotten tracks on Rockers Anonymous.

Goodnight Shelley, thanks for joining in, as ever.

*Moxy's tune "Out of The Darkness" was swapped for this one, a last minute change.

Goodnight everyone, thanks for listening. :-)

Hi Chris, yes, you’re absolutely right about the “other side of the coin” ID, no one else has ever mentioned that to me
