Bluegrass, Blues, Deeper Roots on KOWS, Fifties Country, Folk and Tradition, Jazz

Let’s Live – KOWS Nov 5, 2015

November 5, 2015 Dave

We’ll be bringing another eclectic blend of music from the past for an evening set kicks off with sounds of New Orleans beginning with a medley from the Bayou Maharajah, James Booker and closing with Irma Thomas. In addition to our usual run of bluegrass, jazz, and blues…we’ll prepare some piping hot biscuits from the country shack with Alan Lomax, Flatt & Scruggs, Pappy O’Daniel and the Hillbilly Boys, and Kacey Musgraves. There will also be a rare piece of early blues piano work from Ollie Shepard and the early century jazz band sounds of Enric Madriguera, Jimmie Lunceford, and Fletcher Henderson. Two full hours of Deeper Roots on weekday evening…carrying us over the midweek hump so that it’s all downhill from there…

Songs of the Dust Bowl

October 25, 2015 Dave

Our story is one that we’ve covered before, previously focusing on the Great Depression and the music of Woody Guthrie. This episode pulls in the theme of that tragic chapter of a drought that uprooted nearly 60 percent of the population from the affected region of Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Colorado, and New Mexico. With the soil lacking a firm root due to poor farm practices, the plains winds would pick up the loose topsoil and create the dust clouds that ravaged farm and city alike. The music we’ll hear tonight brings us the stories, including those of Woody and Arlo Guthrie, Bob Gibson, Lane Hardin, Vernon Dahlart, and The Morrison Two Brothers String Band.

October 24, 2015 Dave

Our Saturday morning show opens with some caffeine-driven music…literally… songs about the magic bean, that morning beverage that starts the day for some of us. We’ve got swamp pop from Randy & The Rockets, some jumpin’ jive from Cab Calloway, twilight reflections from Jonatha Brooke and The Sons of The Pioneers, and some Chet Atkins, David Lindley, and Eilen Jewell. KOWS community radio studios will be moving before the end of the year to a very central West County location that will bring us in closer contact with our listeners…and our Deeper Roots. And some exciting news! Deeper Roots moves to weekly broadcasts on KOWS.

Wild Men and Wild Women

October 10, 2015 Dave

It’s theme time once again and we’re going to find ourselves among the wild and crazy men as well as the wild, woolly women. Round town girls celebrate, burning that candle, and Keely Smith will jump, jive, and wail with Louis Prima. Red Ingle and His Natural Seven will join the Sons of the Pioneers in spreading the word about ‘cigareets, whuskey, and wild, wild women”. Mae West, Julia Lee, Ernie Ford, and Jerry Lee Lewis will keep the party going and Deeper Roots will keep the lights on ’till 11pm sharp (that’s Pacific Time, of course). Join Dave Stroud for another two hours of a century of America’s music on KWTF, 88.1 FM, community radio for Bodega Bay.

Early Pop

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.

Curating Deeper Roots

Combing the Archives

September 30, 2015 Dave

Some of the most revealing music I listen to hints at what’s in store for humankind by expressing its own historical presence through dialect and direct purpose. It is done in the artistry of music, something that the children’s author Hans Christian Andersen opined that “where words fail, music speaks”. Music is an essential component of our humanity and is an art like no other in that it is the most direct of all art forms. So I find that what’s old to some may be new to me.

Finding music from the early 20^th century is an exercise. Sometimes it is found buried in the wells of collector’s catalogs that are priced beyond anyone’s reach or in carefully curated and targeted anthologies. It can also be found on public domain sites curated by educational entities including the Library of Congress. Rest assured, it is no small effort to sit down early on a Sunday morning and browse these sites, including www.archive.org and Juneberry for items that, while sometimes poor in quality, reveal from behind that ‘gauze of static’ as faces long-since passed. But my Sunday mornings are rarely lacking reward whether that be a King Oliver jazz recording, rough blues from Blind Lemon Jefferson, or even an early century pop from an Annette Hanshaw.

When I think that I’ve heard it all, something new grabs my ear and imagination and drives me to later fulfill my curiosity by reading more about the artist, songwriter, or song. And that is what my show is about: sharing what I discover with the listener. My show is Deeper Roots: A Century of America’s Music and airs on KOWS.fm on even Saturday mornings from 9-11 and on even Sunday and Monday nights from 10-midnight. For more information about my shows I’d encourage you to visit my web site at www.deeperrootsradio.com. The site also features links to my Facebook page as well as archives of over a hundred past shows.

Looking ahead, and speaking of musical archives, there are a handful of record labels that are indispensable to those who equally cherish the ephemera, no matter the luster, of American (as well as world) music. Join me on Deeper Roots over the coming months as I highlight these labels, not least of which are Document Records, The Dust-to-Digital label, The Numero Group, Tompkins Square, veterans Arhoolie and Yazoo, Old Hat, and Bear Family.
