Coming up on Revolution Rock in February

Coming up in the remaining weeks of February Revolution Rock will feature more special programming.  Last week Revolution Rock celebrated Black History Month playing a mix of Soul, Jazz, Funk, and R & B.  Since CJAM’s archives are currently down, the shows can only be heard live on Tuesdays from 10:30 AM until Noon on the 99.1 FM dial in the Windsor/Detroit area or streamed online at http://www.cjam.ca/ .  Check back if you missed the show, when the downloads are available again they will be posted on this site. 

Here is a list of what is to come:

Lost and Found - The Saints Radio Feature
February 15th, 2010
10:30 AM - Noon
CJAM 99.1 FM (www.cjam.ca)

The show this week will focus on the music of the Australian band The Saints. The Saints mixed elements of Soul, R&B, and Proto-Punk, for a unique sound that was often defined as Punk, but it was also a sound with much more. Following their break up the band has gone on in a more cult like status often being cited as being as influential as bands such as The Clash and Sex Pistols. The show will focus on the bands first three albums ((I'm) Stranded, Eternally Yours, Prehistoric Sounds) and a variety of outtakes and live recordings.

Revolution Surf
February 22nd, 2010
10:30 AM - Noon
CJAM 99.1 FM (www.cjam.ca)

This show will mark my annual Surf show that occurs at the end of every February. This year will mark the fifth annual Surf show that I have done on the CJAM airwaves. Last year's show focused on the music of Link Wray, this year’s show will showcase a few of the songs from Surf legend Dick Dale. The show will also feature a mix of older Surf based groups mixed in with newer groups. Derk of CJAM's Surphony of Derstruction will join me as co-host.
