The days are getting darker both by season and on the sidewalks of your town. Jackboot thugs with masks, clubs, and weapons are descending for you. Make no mistake. If you believe in your right to free speech and all that our Constitution affords you, think again. Know that you and your neighbor are in the crosshairs of this regime. This week’s show won’t break the spell but it will share with its language of comfort, joy and hope that music delivers as it stimulates the release of dopamine triggering pleasure and relaxation. Our prescription this morning is a compound of a free form eclectic blend that delivers a response from all corners. America’s music has always been built on a foundation of free expression so why not make the best…and that’s what we’ll be doing this morning with tracks from Glenn Miller, Charlie Christian, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Randy Newman and Dean Martin, just to name a few. Dream when you’re feeling blue. Rise up when you’re being pushed down. This week’s show takes us where we want to go.

Jazz, rhythm and all the very best of blues and swing from the past century, reaching as far back as the thirties and taking in some of rock royalty from the early fifties. This week we’re snapping fingers and cutting the rug with some of the very greats including Wynonie Harris, Buddy Johnson, The Five Royales, The Cadillacs, and a touch of gospel vocal majesty from Marie Knight and Sister Rosetta Tharpe. The themes are wide-ranging, taking us from the woodshed to the urban streets and some Cadillac competitions and we’ll also get with the stuff that’s arrived and is oh so mellow. Night trains, sugar lumps, boogie woogie daddies and tall skinny papas rule the roost. Don’t miss out, even if you’re a night owl you’ll want to take these sounds with you into the early hours of tomorrow. Let me off uptown, would ya?

A curious theme, indeed! We’re talking ‘questions’, naturally. And don’t you think it’s time we got around to this theme? There was no shortage of ammunition…songs that end with that curly-que that has been the topic of many theories. One such theory suggests that it originate from the Latin word “quaestio” which, shortened to “qo”, would evolve into the symbol we recognize today. Each and every track in the show today delivers that terminating mark in search of an answer. We’ve heard of answer songs, but what about these question songs and most demand good answers because, well, they’re good questions. Jazz, country, rock ‘n roll, and everything in between with selections from The Lovin’ Spoonful, Dan Hicks, The Robins, Joe Liggins and Bo Diddley are just a sampling of the nearly three dozen songs with “good questions” theme. Where would we be without music? Don’ have that answer but I’m guessing I don’t want to know.

Every year about this time there’s a quick burst of blossom, a promise of renewal and that first pitch of the national pastime. I don’t know about you but it’s my favorite time of year, a time when winter’s cold is shut down and we’ve got that Spring Fever. This week’s show will take time out for a couple sets celebrating and remembering baseball’s past through music with the likes of The Treniers, Danny Kaye, and Dr. John with some early rapping from Mel Allen of all people. And that’s just the half of it because the fever goes beyond the diamond: we’ll share songs of April love with Shirley Jones, Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White with Perez Prado, Nina Simone, Martha Tilton, and a run of classic country with Johnny Horton, Sons of the Pioneers and the Sons of the San Joaquin. From stickball to kite-flying to the first frisbees of the year in the local park. Let’s get away from it all.

Put another nickel in that nickelodeon ‘cause rhythm saved the world. This week on Deeper Roots we’re spinning up songs about the jukebox, hit records, little bitty records, disc jockey pleas, and swinging syncopated rhythms from across the past century. That’s right, we’re taking a trip across ninety years featuring jazz from Jimmie Lunceford, country from the Sons of the Pioneers, gospel from the Chuck Wagon Gang, and swinging send-ups from Louis Armstrong, NRBQ, Slim Gaillard, and The Sensations. Well, you can also count on more from the usual suspects in this week’s thematic celebration of the very best of Americana. Whether that’s reaching out to the jukebox, the DJ or that record hawker…we’ve got two hours of rhythm here on KOWS Community Radio. Spend your time with music, not your hard earned dough on this day of resistance.

The past century’s puritanical interlopers, better known as the ‘thought police’, have had their way with music. And we’re not talking about just the lyrics (which will no doubt be the source of most of the songs in the show today)…whether that be the sound of the saxophone or Link Wray’s sinister fuzz and feedback…telling us how to think or suggesting that your children would be swayed to the dark side due a mention of Susie getting home past curfew. It’s an age old problem. It’s really stinkin’ thinkin’ if you’d have asked Frank Zappa. And someone did and summarized his opinions thusly: “Bad facts make bad law, and people who write bad laws are, in my opinion, more dangerous than songwriters who celebrate their sexuality.” All the songs this week suffered from some form of censorship, whether corporate or governmental. And we’re going to play them…damned be the fools.
Cocaine is one of a few substances that have served as a muse, both in word and effect, in various forms of art throughout history, particularly in the 20th century. Its influence can be found repeatedly in the music industry, peaking in use during the 1980s when it was used by performer and listener as the disco and party-going atmosphere exploded, Contributing to this bacchanal were films depicting its use (and abuse) with plot themes embracing the white powder in storytelling. Cocaine’s impact is predominant in the genres of rock, jazz, and hip-hop and many performers have openly discussed their cocaine use, and its influence can be heard in lyrics, musical styles, and even album artwork. This week’s show looks at this muse with sounds from Margo Price, The Reverend Horton Heat, Lucille Bogan, Fred Neil and a host of others from 1929 to the present.

It’s a topical theme…it’s a medicinal thing…it’s a blend of sounds celebrating vipers and jives from the past century. We will join in the celebration (in spirit anyway) of the date and time that three Marin County teenagers are said to have inaugurated over a half century ago. There is no shortage of material to pull from the well of Americana…whether that be from the 1920s or from the 2010s. We’ll brighten up the playlist with music that will help us kick back. We’ll pour over a selected list of great sounds from the last 100 years that either directly or indirectly find us thinking about (or maybe imbibing in) the herb so many care about. There will be music from John Prine, Willie Nelson, Kacey Musgraves, Ray Charles and some early century jazz nuggets you will find hard to resist.

The history of coffee consumption in 20th century America takes hold in the small cafes, truck stops and coffeehouses which became venues and social spaces for the community. Like music, they helped with the congregation of like minds and served as hubs for intellectual exchange, artistic expression and social activism. And it was all because of the caffeine. Instant and decaf coffees were just an aberration; much like disco. This week’s Deeper Roots drives the theme of coffee home with tracks that span the century including Emmett Miller, the King Cole Trio, The Bobs, Ella Mae Morse and Merle Travis (among others) to tell us a cuppa tale or two. It’s one more Friday show ahead of next week’s 420 observation…one more libation to celebrate.

Theme time and I’m going to break it to you slow…it’s all about the negative and those that refuse. If there’s something that’s more prevalent in our lives than saying that we ‘want to’…it’s when we don’t want to. The ‘desire not to’ seems to be winning over the ‘desire to’ in our show today. We’ve got a collection of songs that all begin with the phrase “I Don’t Want” in some form or another. We’ll bring you the early sounds of The Blue Sky Boys and some country sounds of Jimmy Wakely from the hayloft, blues and soul from Magic Sam and that firecracker Sugar Pie DeSanto, and plenty of Americana from The Blasters, Wanda Jackson and Doug Sahm in our show today. It’s going to be a romp because there’s a lot of fodder to choose from when stubbornness is the theme. Tune into community radio for Sonoma County to find out. I don’t want to spoil the theme…but not ‘wanting to’ isn’t always a bad thing…
