Hot Summer Days

August 20, 2016 Dave

As we make it over the summer hump, we’ll take time to celebrate all the things we love about the summer heat. Those stunning summer skies, sea breezes, backyard barbecues, and the lift of a summer rain. We’ve got the beach sounds of the sixties, Hawaiian medleys from the islands, sophisticated sass from Buster Poindexter, hot kissin’ from H-Bomb Ferguson, the summer rain, the summer sky, and the Summer Wind from Frank Sinatra. Rock, zydeco, country, pop, bluegrass, rock, and so much of what comes from the in-between this week on Deeper Roots.

Blues, Country, Deeper Roots on KWTF, Folk and Tradition, Theme Time

Time is Passing

August 13, 2016 Dave

Theme time this week! We are going to dip into a sometimes raucous, other times wistful, blend of country, blues, jazz, and what-not…to celebrate (or is it bemoan) the passing of time in our show this week. The clock is ticking, the calendar flipping, and the little blue orb keeps spinning around that big bright one. And all the while we live our lives celebrating the luminous sounds on Deeper Roots; this week featuring Johnny Otis, Fenton Robinson, Bob Dylan, Texas Jim Lewis, Roy Acuff, and so many others. Time may be passing and we may like to reminisce and wax nostalgic, but we press on…driven by music from the past century (among other things).

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.

Country Blues, Deeper Roots on KWTF, Early Jazz, Folk and Tradition, Urban Blues

Mix of the Blues

July 30, 2016 Dave

Deeper Roots will spend time with a variety of blues styles this week with no focus but the roots of feeling blue, themes about being blue, junker’s blues, bar fly blues, cold rainy day blues, and the dark and somber blues. We’ll feature the urban sounds of Lowell Fulson and Bobby Blue Bland, the smooth sounds of T-Bone Walker, and we’ll also pick on some early jazz and blues vocals including Bertha “Chippie” Hill, Hattie McDaniels, and Memphis Minnie.

Smoke! Smoke! Smoke!

July 23, 2016 Dave

Songs from the past century will fill the air with second hand music smoke…all songs that reflect either the hawkish or ‘dove-ish’ opinions in words and music. We have two hours of country, jazz, blues, pop, and all those adventurous styles in between that use nicotine for their muse. Country from k.d. lang to The Sons of The Pioneers, R&B from the likes of Lucky Millender to Benny Spellman, some doo-wop, some Sam Cooke soul, and a little bit of sweet big band sounds from Fred Waring’s Pennsylvanians. Maybe we won’t celebrate the habit…just the music.

Johnny Cash Tribute

July 16, 2016 Dave

Johnny Cash, like so many others, followed on the heels and inspiration of Elvis at Sun Records in Memphis, Tennessee. But while others (save for possibly Roy Orbison and Jerry Lee Lewis) would fight for the scraps from this ‘new sound’, Johnny less-than-obligingly would ignore all the best advice. He began with the simplest of songs delivered in a farm boy’s tone and, with the Tennessee Three in tow, grew the sound into an identity. Our show this week will lean on his own recordings as well as music from performers he was inspired by…we’ll also include music from contemporaries and those who he inspired.

Robert Johnson Tribute

July 9, 2016 Dave

It’s a two hour Robert Johnson tribute on Deeper Roots Radio: A Century of America’s Music. Legend has it…yes, we have all heard the story. But it is the music that makes us want to believe. In a short recording career where he recorded less than thirty tracks over two sessions, the songs are all his by identification. When you hear the Stones’ cover of “You Got to Move”, or virtually any that Johnson recorded…you overlook their lineage somewhat because their heritage began in the hotel room where he recorded them. We’ll hear from Rory Block, Robert Lockwood, Jr., Nigel Watson & Peter Green, and Bob Brozman as Deeper Roots celebrates the music of Robert Johnson.

The Midnight Hour

June 25, 2016 Dave

The witching hour. The darkest moment in our day where the bell tolls another in the heart of the ancient wood. A muse for poets, writers, and songsmiths over the ages….midnight. Deeper Roots highlights the midnight muse with a delightful blend of the celebratory and the soulful sounds of Creedence Clearwater Revival, Tom Waits, Merle Travis, Big Joe Turner, and Lowell Fulson.
