Under the Covers...

Plus we play some great Canadian covers and a Blend Mini Mix of funk and reggae covers. Don't miss this one.

LITTLE STEVEN AND FUNERAL SONGS......

Legendary member of the E-Street Band, Little Steven Van Vandt, visits to talk about his solo work, politics and remembering Clarence Clemons. We discuss funeral music - the ultimate last sentiment and how much a single song can say. And of course, we run down the best new music in the Magnificent 7 Countdown with offerings from Mark Lenegan, Islands, Skrillex and The Kills' covering a classic Velvet Underground tune.

We claim to be the radio show bringing you, "Music for Music Lovers", and we live by that claim tonight. Bob Mackowycz Jr. drops in to prepare us with some ideas for Valentine's Day, with some not so typical Valentine's Day music. Strombo Show producer Mike Sullivan will jump on the microphone for his new 5 Songs in 5 Minutes section. And as we always bring a new Magnificent 7 Countdown with this week's best new music, plus some Hip Hop love from Childish Gambino, Tom Waits love from Afie from Bahamas, and an all request Big Lie Down.

The Strombo Show
October 23, 2011


Can one define what the elements to the perfect rock and roll song is? Is it length, the music or lyrics? CBC Radio 3's Lana Gay visits to chat with George about what makes the perfect song?

Also Strombo Show regular Bob Mackowycz Jr. will pop in for his annual musical salute to Scorpios.

Our Magnificent 7 Countdown as always is an eclectic one, we play some exclusive acoustic music from
K-os. We also wax on some important dates in music history, 10 with Tom Waits, and we will wind down in our Big Lie Down segment with some Canadian easy listening selections.
