After you've enjoyed Come By The Hills with Sara Hillis, tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 PM to 05:00 PM, don't touch that dial, device, PC, Mac, smart speaker or tablet and join me for The Early Years where and when you'll hear the best music from the first half of the Rock and Roll era with nods to other decades and genres.
This week, I continue remembering Robbie Robertson who passed away August 9 at the age of 80. Most people remember him as a member of The Band, for his movie work and his later solo career; but his musical story began much earlier as you heard if you were with me last week.
I'll pick up where I left off at the end of last week's show with The Band's debut album, "Music From Big Pink" released in August 1968 and continue to their final studio album, "Islands", released in 1977. I'll end with two songs from robbie robertson's self-titled first solo album, released ten years later in 1987.
Next week, I'll begin one of my famous annual countdowns; this time, from 60 years ago this year.
You can contact me any time by email at steve at mushroomfm.com with comments about the show and suggestions for future shows.
So join me, Steve Cutway, for The Early Years, when I make musical and magical memories finishing my tribute to Robbie robertson, tomorrow afternoon at 05:00, after Come By The Hills with Sara Hillis and before Dan Sweeney's One Hit Wonders.
