Free Form – November 2016

December 3, 2016 Dave

While the show this week is free form (something we like to do every few weeks), we’ll be leaning on a number of ‘connections’ including a couple of sets that feature tracks from the 1950 classic country album “Beyond The Sunset” which was released by Luke The Drifter aka Hank Williams, Sr. We’ll hear interpretations and originals that keep the focus on the country gospel solemnities that made this album one of country’s most interesting albums of the time. We’ll also be rocking with The Prisonaires, Aretha Franklin; riding down the canyon with Gene Autry and Jonathan Edwards; and connecting with boot kicking pieces from Robert Gordon and Elvis. An interesting and fun two hours is in store for you on West County community radio. Join Dave Stroud for selections from the last 100 years.

Deeper Fats Waller

August 6, 2016 Dave

In his brief life of 39 years, Tom Waller (better known as ‘Fats’) took what he learned from the church organ and broke the bonds of sacred for the swinging sounds that he would learn from Willie “The Lion” Smith, James P. Johnson, and Eubie Blake. While the organ (or, as he liked to call it “The God Box”) was his first love, it was his songwriting and ebullient personality that would infuse his melodies that set him apart. The American Songbook chapter called “Joy” is full of his music and the tragedy of losing him too soon to his demons likely prevented us being further enriched. Tune in for two hours of music that inspired Fats as well as the music he gave us.

Deeper Roots on KWTF, Early Jazz, Early Pop

Pop Music of the 1920s

January 28, 2016 Dave

We’ll revisit the third decade of the 20th century where the social and cultural watershed events following the first World War were more than one could have anticipated. The Jazz Age; Prohibition; Radio and the Victrola meant entertainment could be had in the front room, replacing the family and neighborhood parlor entertainment. While the Great Depression loomed on the horizon, the music that found the middle was hopeful and full of man-meets-girl songs were all the rage…even if signs of hard times to come were easily spotted. Listen in for a chronological selection that includes the sounds of Duke Ellington, Paul Whiteman, Annette Hanshaw, Ethel Waters, and the peerless pop icons Al Jolson and Eddie Cantor.

Roots of Doo Wop

December 12, 2015 Dave

The early fifties brought the dawn of a musical form that became popular with a younger crowd although it was simply a version of a vocal harmony form born in the early century, if not long before. The street corner harmonies were a big hit as this new form of rhythm called ‘doo-wop’ saturated the top 40 R&B (and mainstream) airwaves. But the influences themselves had huge followings. We’ll hear from some of the early gospel inspirations like the Heavenly Gospel Singers as well as the vocal groups who were dominant in the form’s lineage: The Ink Spots, The Mills Brothers, and The Ravens. We’ll also hear from the groups who introduced ‘doo wop’ as we know it in the early fifties.

Deeper Hoagy Carmichael

October 3, 2015 Dave

Our show explores the music of the great Hoagy Carmichael, the American songwriter who would pair up with some of the great lyricists of the early century to produce a body of work that, while it generally is written about another time in the south, endures for it’s soft-spoken charm, inventiveness, and sophistication. He worked his way through law school by performing in his own three-piece band but a couple of his early songs, “Riverboat Shuffle” and “Stardust” made it clear that songwriting was the inevitable vocation for this would-be lawyer. Although the Great Depression almost put him back with the bar, it was the song “Stardust” that would convince him that he could make a go of it. And he did. He was a font of music, teaming with Johnny Mercer and numerous other great lyricists to pen songs that maintain a fresh face to this day…and Deeper Roots will have the vintage sounds of Bing Crosby, Nat King Cole, and The Mills Brothers alongside the contemporary interpretations of Carmichael’s standards including Linda Ronstadt, Norah Jones, and Junior Brown. Join Dave Stroud as he queues up the timeless work of Hoagy Carmichael.

San Antone – KOWS August 10, 2015

August 11, 2015 Dave

We’re filling in once more for Mark Hogan and his Bluegrass and Old Time Hour. This week, we’ve put together another two hours of music that spans close to a full century…including Cliff Edwards from 1933, Woody Guthrie, Jimmie Lunceford, and Dave Van Ronk (just to name a few). There will be some themes and schemes built into our sets this evening including the story of Caldonia, the Texas town of San Antone, and heading down a dusty road of a century of America’s music.
