Mulligan Stew Dec 25th 2021-The Christmas Stew/Christmas in the Round Rediscovered!

December 25, 2021

hello

The DAY has arrived.

That one day, when most of The World pauses for Christmas and the Holidays!

For many, it’s a religious time. For others, it’s a gathering of “the clan”. Family and dear friends. Unfortunately for some, it’s the loneliest day of the year.

So. How to create two hours of music that becomes a warm backdrop to all those listeners. That was the assignment I gave myself.

The first hour features songs that give a sense of time and place. Some aren’t even Christmas songs but they speak to the feelings of the season.

HOUR TWO features a lost episode of Christmas in the Round.

Its from the first Christmas at Roundhouse Radio in Vancouver’s East Side.

It’s a tribute to Christmas specials that Roy Forbes, Shari Ulrich and I did way back in our CBC Radio days.

The “gathering” included road warriors Barney Bentall, Craig Northey (Odds), Jim Byrnes, Shaun Verreault (Wide Mouth Mason) plus originals Roy Forbes and Shari Ulrich.

Trading songs and stories for an entire second hour of this Christmas Stew.

I hope you like this Christmas Day Christmas Stew. I was moved just putting it together.

Now, I’m going to see the one person I know who is alone and let him know he’s loved and surrounded by friends.

Maybe leave him a dram or two.

Is there someone you know is alone this Christmas? I can only hope this music will lift your soul the way it did me.

Have a warm and wonderful Christmas. We will meet again on New Years Day.

Terry

EP 188 | Joey Landreth ‘All That You Dream’

December 25, 2021

hello

The very first time I heard The Bros Landreth my heart jumped “those boys were raised on Little Feat (One of the very best bands to ever step onto a stage. Anywhere)

They were led by the late Lowell George. Lead singer, primary writer, singular guitarist.

When I got to interview Joey and brother David, they spun a story of growing up in Winnipeg. Their father was a well-known working musician and the house was filled with Byrds, Buffalo Springfield, Poco records but the most popular were the early 70’s albums by Little Feat. (Little Feat. Sailin’ Shoes. Dixie Chicken. Feats don’t fail me now)

It was a true musical education.

This all leads us to this Podcast featuring Joey Landreth and his new solo album All that you dream.

<a href="https://joeylandreth.bandcamp.com/album/all-that-you-dream">All That You Dream by Joey Landreth</a>

It’s a tribute to Lowell George and Little Feat. A “thank you” if you will.

Turns out, we’re the ones who should be saying thank you. It’s a beautiful table full of the Little Feat Dixie Chicken. One generation saluting another.

The Bros are headed back to Europe for tour dates (listed here)

Remarkably they are even bigger stars in Europe than here but that imbalance will surely change this year when this killer solo album is joined by the next Bros Landreth album, in the Spring!

Note: check out Joey in episode #52

Dec 25, 2021 -The Okanagan Reconnect – (The Repeat) Week One!

December 25, 2021 00:59:48

hello

The Okanagan Reconnect – (The Repeat) Week One

(A 5-week series repeat presented by Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association)

See Full Video below!

The SHOW

It’s been close to two years since Tasting Room Radio toured the vineyards and restaurants of the Okanagan.

TRR started its 14-year existence on the Naramata Bench in 2007. Since leaving the valley we’ve stayed in touch through Zoom, Phone, Text, What’s app, Skype, email, and in person. The in-person was usually in Vancouver or Victoria when wineries poured for the media and public.

I truly missed traveling through the Okanagan, walking the vineyards, seeing and smelling the cellars, and listening to the winemakers and winery principals tell great stories of bud break, harvest, and release days. The past year and a half also included a heat dome, wildfires, and Covid19.

With the assistance and support of TOTA – The Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association – On Aug 3 we headed back to the Okanagan.

Rather than drive around to 20 plus wineries and losing valuable interview time to the driving, we decided to try and base ourselves at our sponsor locations.

The Hatch in West Kelowna, Hillside Winery and Bistro on Naramata Bench, Moon Curser in Osoyoos, and Noble Ridge in OK Falls.

This first week we called The Hatch our home.

Winery Guests were asked to bring a red and white to feature. They included:

Mark Filatow – Executive chef and Sommelier Waterfront Wines Restaurant (Kelowna) waterfrontrestaurant.ca

EP 187 | Benjamin Cleary Writer, Director ‘Swan Song’

December 18, 2021

hello

In the recently released film Swan Song, Oscar winner Mahershala Ali plays Cameron, an illustrator involved in a happy marriage, father of one with another on the way. He’s also terminally ill. This being the future, a medical procedure exists which allows Cameron to be cloned and have his memories and DNA implanted in the clone. The clone then returns to Cameron’s wife Naomie Harris and family, so that they don’t have to deal with the grief of losing him.

In his first leading role, Mahershala Ali takes on a demanding role. Playing both Cameron and his clone. Taking the stereotypical double role, he shaped it with such an amazing level of sensitivity and genuine craft, that he matched his work in his Oscar-winning Moonlight and The Green Book roles. He’ll very likely be in the middle of the Critics Choice and Oscar races yet again.

Swan Song also stars Glenn Close, Adam Beach, Awkwafina and is written for the screen and directed by our guest this week Academy Award winner Benjamin Cleary

December 18th, 2021- The Wine Diva’s Top 50 Over $20 & Best Bubbles Plus Fitz Wines

December 17, 2021 01:04:27

hello

The Wine Diva’s Top 50 Over $20 & Best Bubbles Plus Fitz Wines

THE SHOW

Even though it’s been a completely eventful year we still arrive at perhaps the best season of the year. Hanukah, Christmas, the Holidays, and New Year’s Eve. If ever there was a great time to heal and recommit to family and friends this is the one.

If you’re considering those important last-minute gifts – the ones that say “Thank You” – great wine and sparkling wines can’t be beaten.

Daenna van Mulligen through her websites, winediva.ca, and winescores.ca has tasted 100’s of wines every month of 2021 and her year-end lists are a fantastic resource. This week it’s the Top 50 over 90 points and over $20.00

To start The Show we head to Fitzpatrick Family Vineyards just south of Peachland. You can’t miss the gateway sign at the entrance of Greata Ranch.

Our guest is Gordon Fitzpatrick, the president of the winery.

Gordon Fitzpatrick and TDM

Grew up in Vancouver. Father Ross became a Senator. Gordon worked for a future Prime Minister. Spent 10 years in mining (gold!). Came to the Okanagan in 1996 to run CedarCreek Estate Winery. Helped shape the BC wine industry as the Former Chair of the BC Wine Institute.

The family sold Cedar Creek with their eyes firmly on the almost forgotten Greata Ranch Estate above Okanagan Lake. It was a former peach-producing estate that had been left to wither but Gordon had a dream to reclaim the land and rebuild the home base as a producer of bubble and still wines. Voila! Fitzpatrick Family Vineyards. They have a quickly expanding portfolio.

Here are the latest releases from Gordon and the team at Fitzpatrick.

Greata Ranch – Fitzpatrick Winery

Mulligan Stew Nov 18th 2021- Christmas Stew part 2!

December 17, 2021

hello

It’s that seasonal fulcrum when we all start counting the days until Christmas Day.

7-6-5-4-3-2-1.. Comes The Day.

For a child, it’s pure magic!

These two hours are intended for the child in all of us. Embrace the season, remind those you love that you love them. Reconnect with family and friends.

A week from today Christmas Day arrives like an old friend.

This Saturday – the 18th – is two hours of music. Songs and artists were chosen for their passion and honesty.

We start with Ben Harper and the Soweto Gospel Choir singing Coldplay’s Fix You.

Sheryl Crow, Norah Jones, Fleet Foxes, Calexico, John Prine, Joni, Emmylou, Alan Doyle, Blue Rodeo, Tom Petty, Aretha, Darlene Love, The Reverend Shawn Amos and the wonderful piano of Bill Sample and many more.

And on Christmas Day ..music to get you through meal prep and the first-ever replay of a 2015 Christmas in the Round. Sharing songs and stories are Barney Bentall, Shari Ulrich, Roy Forbes, Craig Northey, Jim Byrnes, and Shaun Verreault from Wide Mouth Mason. All together in the same room. Singing, playing and remembering past Christmas’.

The New Years Day show will be laying the best tracks of the year plus classics I know you like. The Mulligan Stew Podcast on New Year’s Eve will be Rick Mercer, talking about his memoir Talking to Canadians.

EP 186 | Eric Wright – The Fretless

December 10, 2021

hello

Eric Wright, a founding member of the Juno winning The Fretless, is the guest. Their latest album is called Open House.

The Fretless is Trent Freeman (Fiddle/Viola), Karrnnel Sawitsky (Fiddle/Viola), BenPlotnick(Fiddle/Viola), and Eric Wright (Cello).

Open House is a 10 song vocal collaboration album and the first project that The Fretless feature vocals on all the tracks and in such a prominent role. They teamed up with Dan Mangan for a spin on his single “Troubled Mind“. Up next was Celeigh Cardinal featured on a version of William Prince’s “Earthly Days“, Nuela Charles on a gorgeous rendition of “Stay“. And most recently The Bros. Landreth on a version of their song “Let It Lie” and 6 more artists.

Outreach and inspiring the next generation of string players is very much a part of The Fretless ’ethos. They continue to support numerous fiddle camps, masterclass’ and workshops around the world, not only as instructors but as mentors. Over the past few years, they have connected with notable organizations such as the Calgary Youth Orchestra and the Luxembourg Youth Orchestra, creating and performing full orchestral arrangements of Fretless tunes.

Eric says the Fretless are modern folk. To the ear, they sound like a rock band with violins, violas, and Eric on cello. They happily share their creative space with other artists.

I’ve chosen four to talk about and play

Dan Mangan – Troubled Mind
Celeigh Cardinal – Earthly Days
Nuela Charles – Stay
The Bros Landreth – Let it lie

It was also time to get a perspective on how the wines turned out. All the wines.

BC, Canada, and The World! Who better to ask than DJ Kearney.

Long-time friend and the leading edge of wine knowledge in today’s World.

I asked DJ to comment on the recent 2021 Wine Align final results.

DJ and I finish with a question we always ask ourselves.

Will BC wines ever be truly available in Ontario and other provinces and will Ontario wines show up on shelves in BC? If you’re a wine fan, perhaps you could ask your local member of parliament.
