Everly Brothers Tribute

Hits from the 50s and 60s…covers by contemporary artists… original versions … songs from Phil and Don and from the songwriting team that brought them fame: Boudleaux and Felice Bryant. We’ll spend time on all of them…and more…in a special two hour tribute to the brothers who may not have been able to get along but they got along with their fans beginning with 1957’s Bye Bye Love. They lasted as solid pop, country, and rock crossovers well into the mid-1960s and we’re going to celebrate their music featuring performers including Ray Charles, Linda Ronstadt, The Persuasions, Buddy Miller, and a host of others.

Lazy Day Lullabies

t’s the softer side of Americana sounds from the last 100 years. Digging into the dusty digital bins, Deeper Roots host Dave Stroud will keep the waters calm in the face of the storm that swirls around us. Love songs, songs of wistful desires, trips to the seashore cabin, and instrumentals for dreamers all take center stage in a collection of sounds from the mellow side. We’ll hear pop from Dean Martin, country from Charlie McCoy and Merle Haggard, rock from Mark Knopfler and Roy Orbison, and some soul sounds from Sam Cooke and Irma Thomas.

Rhythm & Blues & Soul

….’Cause it’s gotta have soul, rhythm, and blues to make the cut this week. That’s the answer to the question. We’ll look to a couple of iconic comedians from the late 70s to inspire us with a collection of sounds lifted from their albums…and their movies. Why not? Jake and Elwood teamed up with Stax legends Steve Cropper, Matt “Guitar” Murphy, and Duck Dunn to deliver punch after punch and we’re going to sample the best of it. We’ve got Willie Mabon, King Floyd, Johnnie Taylor, Big Joe, The Robins, The Soul Survivors, and (of course) Aretha…all for you in a two hour rhythm & blues & soul extravaganza this week on Deeper Roots.

Rockabilly Road

Rockabilly Road
Rockabilly Road

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.

Deeper Fifties Fear

 

Deeper Fifties Fear
Deeper Fifties Fear

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’.

Leon Russell Tribute

Leon Russell Tribute
Leon Russell Tribute

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.

Hot Summer Days

Hot Summer Days
Hot Summer Days

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.

Robert Johnson Tribute

Robert Johnson Tribute
Robert Johnson Tribute

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.
