It’s time once again to visit the wild side of rock n’ roll…unrestrained and unforgiving…and often out of tune. But that didn’t matter since it was the emotion and the sweat that filled the production gaps. A progenitor of punk, rockabilly music got its roots from hillbilly, country swing, and R&B. And it certainly owes a lot to Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Elvis Presley. Our show this week will cover the known and the unknown. We’ll hear tracks from the Sun stable but we’ll also dig into the digital dust bins of the Imperial, Capitol, and Decca labels for vintage examples and a few rockabilly modernists will be on hand. So get your cat clothes on and get ready for a raucous evening in West County on community radio.

There was (is?) a time when the background noise (and it was loud) revolved around the likelihood that humankind would annihilate itself any day. The Cold War brought out the worst of us. Fear of your neighbor…fear of ideology or alternative ideas were the centerpiece of the day. The fear was embodied in the likelihood of the ‘big one’ dropping; yet our schools, media, and government soft-peddled the reality. The entertainment industry had it’s own take, of course; because artistic license allowed exploration from every corner, even though it would often make light of what was then assumed to be an eventuality. We’ll hear country from Charlie Louvin and Elton Britt, left-wing folkies like Pete Seeger and Mark Spoelstra, and gospel from the Golden Gate Quartet and The Spirit of Memphis Quartet. It’s a combination of novelty, contemporary takes on old standards, and vintage sounds (both musical and otherwise) in our Deeper Roots episode that explores the American way called ‘duck and cover’.Â

To say that the year 2016 was a bummer year is an understatement. While entertainment would take a backseat to the social and political conflagrations of the year, it was a very tough year for music lovers, nonetheless. Deeper Roots will be sharing tracks from some of the great, both known and unknown, who left us. We’ll hear from both Prince as well as Dan Hicks; Natalie Cole and Lonnie Mack; Juan Gabriel and Paul Kantner. It does not end there and we’ll barely be able to cover them all. Tune into our last show of the year and help us remember what these performers brought us.

In addition to some selections from the Document Records “Blues Blues Christmas” releases, we’ll surface some newer sounds including Americana nuggets from David Myles, Kacey Musgraves, Â and Raul Malo. To fill out the vintage, you’ll be entertained by Kay Starr, Elvis, Asleep At The Wheel, and the Prairie Ramblers.

The westward movement is celebrated once more as Deeper Roots spends two hours digging through those dusty digital bins to find the more popular and, in some cases, more obscure pieces about the one of the great migrations. In addition to the 19th century land-grab where the call was “Westward Ho!”, we’ll hear songs about the not-so-celebratory movement following the 20th century Dust Bowl migration. Tune in for blues from Lowell Fulson, Barbecue Bob, and Albert King; country from Merle Haggard, Asleep at the Wheel, and John Hartford; tradition and folk from Woody Guthrie, Darryl Holter, and Jay Farrar; and jazz/pop from Nat King Cole, Bing Crosby, and Sol Hoopii. All on community radio for Sonoma County.

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.

A sure example of a muse if there ever was one. Tune for the sounds of Bill Haley, Al Hirt, Duke Ellington, Elvis, and the Collins Kids (among others). It’s folk, blues, R&B, country, pop, and rock…all in good sweet fun on KWTF radio.

To quote one blogger: “[Leon Russell] was one of the most adept and prolific session men of the 1960s rock scene, playing on more records and [alongside] more artists than many people could name, and his abilities and multi-instrumental proficiency would make him an unstoppable force when he debuted as an artist in his own right in the early seventies.” Summed up perfectly. And Deeper Roots will pay tribute to Leon with a look at his music, his songwriting prowess, the arc of his career, and the performances that made him that ‘unstoppable force’. We’ll hear from Joe Cocker, The Carpenters, George Benson, and (of course) Leon himself in a hastily gathered, but oh so sublime, show that honors an artist who we lost this past weekend. Tune into (and support) Sonoma County community radio.

Join us in a celebration of the the music of Buck Owens, a producer, songwriter, and musician who introduced many of us to the Bakersfield sound, that very distinctive blend of country, honky-tonk, and hillbilly music from the fifties and sixties. We’ll hear a few from Buck and the Buckaroos but will take the lion’s share of the show highlighting the music of artists covering some of the great (and obscure) songs of Buck Owens. We’ll bring you the music of Ray Charles, Bobby Bare, Dwight Yoakam, John Fogerty, Patsy Cline, and many others.
