Mulligan Stew June 21st 2025- National Indigenous Day – Pride Month (Summer Solstice)

Ah yes. The Sumer Solstice.  A  Special  Mix for this Special Day.
It’s a day to recognize and celebrate Canada’s Indigenous nations and their cultural leaders.  It’s also Pride Month.
Frankly, I’m convinced that both these days are part of CKUA every day.  Every show. Every host. Every day of the year, we celebrate Indigenous and Pride artists and projects.

The Stew playlist includes: 

Julian Taylor-Allison Russell
Susan Aglukark
Celeigh Cardinal
Adrian Sutherland
Amanda Rheaume
Wm Prince
Burnstick
Frazey Ford
Midnight Shine
Reuben and Bullhorn Singers.
Tom Wilson and Blackie & the Rodeo Kings
New Van Morrison, Honeybear, The Band, Leeroy Stagger, Blue Rodeo, Bonnie Raitt twice, Ray Charles, Taj, Seth Walker, Los Lobos.
Classics from Jon Batiste, Brian Wilson.
And it’s Ray Davies’ birthday (1944) so we play The Kinks – Because We Must!
Plus we remember John Lee  Hooker who passed June 21 (2001)  At  83 years old – left us,  in his sleep.
And Joni Mitchell released Blue on June 21, 1971. Acknowledged as Joni’s finest album and one of the best albums ever released by anyone in popular music.
 Six months earlier, in October 1970, in Vancouver,  at the first-ever Greenpeace Concert, I was honored to be the MC/Host for the evening.
