CP S13 EP42 2019

This week’s MMMM includes the Subdudes, Caitlin Cannon, Liptruce, the Wayne Wilkinson Trio, Brent Cowles, and Chess at Breakfast … KEEP or DELETE?

MONDAY Oct. 28 2019 – A reminder this week of day/time change for the show on 105.5 The Colorado Sound (KJAC).  The show has moved from Sundays at 10AM and 10PM to Saturdays 6AM-8AM.  

Speaking of KJAC – if you missed one of the past two week’s of shows, you can stream it here.  You can also stream the show in real time wherever the show is aired. See the stations and times page for that info.

Unbeknownst to over 99% of us, there is an in-state chart, based on what several non-commercial public / community radio station djs are spinning weekly.  It can be located at rootsmusicreport.com/charts/view/album/state/colorado/weekly.  The chart updates every Monday morning.   The Lumineers, Kerry Pastine & the Crime Scene and the Taylor Scott Band hold the top three positions this week.

Happy birthday to Colorado native Kenny Passarelli, who co-wrote the hit “Rocky Mountain Way” with Joe Walsh and who went on to play bass and tour with some of rock’s biggest names, including Elton John, Dan Fogelberg, Stephen Stills and Hall & Oates.  Courtesy of Colorado Music Experience.

At Bohemian Foundation, our focus is on building community …by coming together to create and enjoy music.

 

MONDAY MORNING MUSIC MEETING (MMMM)

You make a big difference in what gets played on the show.  Every week I share some or all of the new music … (D), (N), (P) … played on the show with you here.  You vote to KEEP or DELETE gets factored into my decision in what to maintain in the show’s “for airplay” library.

MONDAY Oct. 21 2019 –The Colorado Playlist on 105.5 The Colorado Sound is changing times!  After reviewing three years worth of ratings data, it has been decided to move the Colorado Playlist to Saturday mornings, 6AM-8AM.  Seems I have more available listeners on Saturday mornings than on Sundays!  I will continue to host Saturday mornings, 8AM-12PM.  So now you’ll get two solid hours of Colorado music, and then me hosting four hours of music discovery – including Colorado music – every Saturday morning.  Set that alarm clock!!

The Colorado Music Hall of Fame presented by Comfort Dental has announced the 2019 induction celebration for Tommy Bolin, Zephyr, Otis Taylor, Freddi Henchi Band and Wendy Kale.  Tue, Dec 3 at Mission Ballroom.

CP S13 EP36 2019

MONDAY SEPT 16 2019 -I didn’t realize it until I was thick into producing the show this week that all but two of the featured (D) debuts are by women in Colorado music.  #COwomeninmusic

The Still Tide, Whippoorwill, Kerry Pastine, Kayla Marque, and Liptruce all have new releases out that will almost certainly be considered for BEST of the CP 2019. Add the new video from Cass Clayton the group of wonderful new music from #COwomeninmusic. 

I was able to catch Kerry Pastine & the Crime Scene at their album release show with Cass Clayton on Friday the 13th at Dazzle, in Denver.    It was great to see some wonderful friends in attendance, including legendary Denver artist Lannie Garrett, who informed me she’s now retired from performing and recording.  We agreed it’s time for her to sit down for an interview.  Also in attendance, Angie Stevens, who unless my ears were ringing so loud I misunderstood, told me she’s playing the Bluebird on January 23, 2020.  

Lannie also informed me that she’s been in the process of digitizing some old cassettes from her days in Forecast, which dates back to the late 70s, which is when I first heard her at Bentley’s at the BBC on Cap Hill in Denver.  I’d love to share some of that with you.

GOATZ! is back to playing at some of our favorite indoor venues, and a couple of new ones.  In particular, we’ve very happy to be playing at the new Broadway Roxy and Nissi’s Entertainment Venue & Event Center (Lafayette) in October.  Make sure to check our concert listings at www.goatzmusic.com/shows

VIDEO PICK OF THE WEEK

Cass Clayton is a friend.  Full disclosure, she serves on the board of directors for the non-profit I started a few years ago.  I msg’d her recently to compliment her on her new video.  What I learned is that it’s both about where she grew up, and she shot the entire video on her iPhone, due to lack of a video production budget.  WTG Cass … one of the tremendous women in music in Colorado!
