Addendums to Past Themes (CKCU Funding Drive)
The theme for this edition of Stranger Songs is “Addendums to Past Themes.” Whenever I choose a theme for Stranger Songs, it’s inevitable that time constraints mean that I can’t begin to include all the possible songs or versions of songs that would fit the theme. This being funding drive time, I thought it would be fun to look at some past themes and choose a couple of songs or versions of songs that weren’t included when the theme originally aired.

Thanks for playing "Cathy's Clown". It's my favourite. The harmonies are exquisite. And of course all the other songs, especially Sonny's Dream by Emmylou, Dolores and Mary. Great version.
