Two wonderful donors join us.
The first in Canmore would like to remember The Band at The Last Waltz and, in particular, Garth Hudson.
“Now The Band can play together once again – a heck of a heavenly chorus”
I played
Stage Fright
The Weight
And the donor in Hour Two from Red Deer will be 51 on Friday the 13th. Asked for hits from his birth year, 1974.
I played
Al Green Take me to the River
Joni Mitchell – Help Me
No Woman No Cry – Bob Marley and Wailers
If you want me to stay (released 73..a hit in 74), Sly Stone
Sundown – Gordon Lightfoot
New music from The Wood Brothers, Jesse Roper, Marcus Trummer, Norah Jones and Allison Russell,
And Always Be Your Son, a fantastic Father’s Day song from Matt Anderson
Classics from Derek and the Dominos, Harry Nilsson, Madeleine Peyroux, R.L. Burnside, Ry Cooder and …..
The last song goes to Brian Wilson – Love and Mercy, Live at Carnegie Hall.
Special guest is the fantastic singer, songwriter, Mike Farris.
His new album is called The Sound of Muscle Shoals.
He’s waited almost 20 years to round up the next generation of Swampers and record at FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals.
Wow – was it worth the wait? Mike Farris lives and sings The Sound of Muscle Shoals.
The same sound that came from Etta, Aretha, Boz, Paul Simon, Wilson Pickett, Neil Young, Percy Sledge, Bob Dylan, Peter Gabriel, The Staple Singers and many more.
But first, Mike had to clean up his life, and he talks about hitting rock bottom.
That’s when his wife said, “We’re going to do something different this time. We’ll start by talking about the whys.
Why, when you start getting successful, you self-destruct?” Mike said, “That scared the hell out of me.”
Mike is 10 years clean no,w and he’s riding the Slow Train to Muscle Shoals.
One of my albums of the year.
The Mulligan Stew Podcast, with all of Mike’s stories is a great listen and the video version on the terry david mulligan YouTube Channel is really engaging. Mike opens right up.
