The downstream wave of sounds that flooded the charts seemed endless in the year 1960. As was exhibited in last week’s Deeper Roots exhibition of ‘also rans’ from that year, it was a very, very crowded field. That field was spread far and wide across genres and levels of production, songwriting and performance quality. We take on that same strata this week in the show. More teen crushes, tragedies, soulful exchanges and instrumentals that bore earworms galore. That’s what we’ve got in store with performances from Fats to Jackie, Smokey to Etta, the Burnette Brothers and Ricky, Dean Martin, Freddie King and Linda Laurie…all giving it their all and doing their very best to crawl to the top of their respective charts. We’re getting ready for a wild Sunday night here in Santa Rosa, celebrating KOWS Community Radio at the Barrel Proof Lounge in downtown Santa Rosa. Hope you can make today’s Deeper Roots show and Sunday’s benefit!
