Savoy Brown



Founded in the mid 60’s, tonight’s band was one of the last British blues bands to hit the scene. Although never reaching hit status in England they were well received in America.
The band has seen many personnel changes over the years with guitarist Kim Simmonds being the one constant member. Three of the original members left early on to form Foghat while other members also went on to other bands.

Unfortunately I was unable to find any videos of their early performances so…

Tonight we’ll start off with two live performances from 1995 and then move on to 2005 through the present.

Later, Eric Cartman will present the introduction to the second portion of the show. This portion is comprised of tracks off their 1960’s and ‘70’s albums with various fan generated slide shows.

Pink Floyd

This weekend I am again having to take the trip to my daughter's camp so I will leave you with this short but sweet show originally televised in 1970 on KQED in San Francisco.

Wishbone Ash


In light of the smoke filled air for the last week due to the over 300 fires in northern California it’s only fitting that I bring you this band tonight.

Founded in the 1960’s and still performing today this British band is a founder of and one of the few remaining guitar-duo power bands. Although various members have come and gone the band has kept the music coming all these years. The current band bearing the original name is now headed up by one of the founding members Andy Powell, while another version of the band is headed up by founding member, Martin Turner.

So here tonight, reminiscent of the hillsides around here, Wishbone Ash!
