Richard Hawley

To celebrate the 4th of July, KCRW (and KCRW.com) is presenting a 10 hour retrospective on the best music in the world. I'll be on vacation with the fam, so I'm going to miss it. I hope it's available for streaming afterward. The schedule follows. All times are Pacific (GMT - 0800) so adjust your time accordingly.

0900-1000 Good Rockin' Tonight - Explores music in segregated Memphis in the 50s.

1000-1100 - Johnny Cash

1100-1200 - Fujiyama Mamas - Women in Rockabilly

1200-1300 - Rebels With Guitars - Burnette Brothers

1300-1400 - Louisiana Hayride

1400-1500 - THE KILLER - JERRY LEE LEWIS!

1500-1600 - Shake This Shack - Rockabilly and Western Swing

1600-1700 - Rockin' Bones - Lesser Known Acts

(1700-1900 - NPR's All Things Considered)

2000-2100 - Summertime Blues - West Coast Rockabilly. Eddie Cochran's death signals the death of Rockabilly as we knew it.

And 2100-2200 is a retrospective of Carol King's "Tapestry." Not sure how that fits in, but sounds good.

I got the info from the subscriber newsletter. I can't find any info on their website yet.

ENJOY!

Tony

That's nowhere near long enough



I'll be listening at some point.

I missed this as well (I'm also a member!) and sadly it doesn't appear that they podcast or archive their special programs.
