Red White and Blues

Red, White & Blues airs from 6 to 8 pm every Sunday evening on WAPJ FM. Choser and Bub host the program with occasional guests to talk about music and sometimes movies. They prepare a unique set of independent rock that ranges from electro-pop to post-rock and mix in folk and blues for balance.

Classic Rock Mini Concert 5/16/08

The Classic Rock Mini Concert for this week was a selection of "covers".

From Cream to Deep Purple, from Spooky Tooth to the Who and the Ides of March, you never know what you might hear from the classic era of rock.

I will be off next week (5/23) but tune in to see what Tony will play between 10 and 11pm.
