Mike Palumbo
I am a very grateful listener. I almost always listen to the archives, so I will never be able to post an interactive comment. I am just blown away by the depth and breadth of you musical library. Have you ever thought about writing a memoir or some other form that puts your musical experiences on paper for us aficionados to enjoy?

Thanks Mike. There may be a memoir in the works at some point. I appreciate your listening and your interest.

Ditto to Mike Palumbo's comment to the Caretaker of Folk, as I have also suggested to The Caretaker of Funk, Elorious Cain. So many great Caretakers of everything music on CKCU, its unbelievable! Bravo! 50 years!!! Incredible!

Big thanks also to the folks who mentioned Stranger Songs in their donations to the station generally or to other shows (it's all the same pot in the end). CKCU is still a little short of reaching the station's funding drive goal, so your donations are still welcome and encouraged. Just click on the DONATE button.
