It’s Canada Day, Up Canada Way…well, by this weekend it'll almost be July 1. An all-Canadian edition of Fervor Coulee’s Rootsicana & Bluegrass Sunday at 2 MTN on CJSR 88.5 #YEG & CJSR.com. I look forward to being live in the studio with you this weekend for 2 hours of our kinda music, eh!

After some 4316 CDs we reach Day1080 #CDsOnTheShelf #MusicChallenge & turn to the Compilations at Shelf 55. The first few days are from the section labeled “Live Sets,” but not all are. Sigh. As always, only ‘official’ CDs, no burned copies: if we included those, I imagine we would still be on

Press On is a great album.

JTP.

I wish I had thought of doing this 185 episodes ago, but every time the JTP echoes "JTP" when I'm on here, I'm gonna send it out. JTP.

The preschooler: Can we go back to the music vegetable? I want to be in the vegetable. A better parent would tell him that it’s pronounced “festival”.

Dept. Q on Netflix is a fantastic watch. I highly recommend it.

And forty-five years later, I realize this guy is this guy.

As you survey July #MusicChallenge I hope you'll consider #JulyYouAreASong kicking off June 30. See graphic below or AltText for daily theme. I believe it will be more fun with more participants. Hope you can join me, otherwise I'll be lonely. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

#BestSongHeardToday #MusicChallenge No idea why this song popped into my head this evening, but it did and so I listened and now you also must. OXO - "Whirly Girl" www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9KK...

Day 4: #ArtistFave90s #MusicChallenge @mikeplume.bsky.social Mike Plume Band I hope someone is enjoying the music of Mike Plume I'm posting. "The Back of My Hand" mikeplume.bandcamp.com/track/the-ba...

If "Jolene" was a bluegrass song, she and the cheating husband would be dead in the second verse and burnt and buried in the third.

Rest In Peace Lynn Hamilton 💐

Let's talk HC "refocusing" and Premier's latest announcement 🧵 : - no one is able to articulate the actual plan. NO ONE - the Premier is being advised in backrooms on health, she comes out and makes an announcement... and then the legions of consultants and bureacrats scramble

I hope you enjoyed listening to today’s show. I played a few new songs, featured Ryan Wayne, Hazel Dickens (born one hundred years ago this month), and live John Stewart while also playing several bluegrass and old-time murder ballads. I sure enjoyed myself, and can’t wait to be back on the

Concern about some sort of Iranian retaliation is warranted. But this is about the worst advice I can think of. It's a recipe for a bunch of Sikhs getting shot by trigger-happy yahoos.

"I know this is hard for you Americans to imagine, but please try." Uncanny.

Please consider reposting- rebluiting or whatever we are calling it. #JulyYouAreASong #musicchallenge Thanks.

Start planning or just go with whatever suits. Daily or jump in & out. Hope you can join me, otherwise I'll be lonely. (Typo fixed!)

Think of it as Covid for your wallet. Just another big thing Trump botched.

150 minutes from now on 88.5 FM in Edmonton and cjsr.com everywhere else- two full hours of our kinda music, Rootsicana and Bluegrass. Hoping you can listen in- will be some fun I do believe.

FIRST DAY OF SUMMER IN ALBERTA 😅😅 JUST A FREAK SNOW STORM

Rachel Maddow: “If Trump wasn’t getting the intelligence that Iran is on the verge of a nuclear weapon from the intelligence community… who is he getting it from? Israel?” The right question. And pretty obviously the right answer.

We are surrounded by morons. ™️

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

#BestSongHeardToday #MusicChallenge Listened to a live version today and decided to feature it. But then found this clip. Not sure how I missed this film for so many months. "Step Inside My House" Guy Clark www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9hr...

Day 3: #ArtistFave90s #MusicChallenge @mikeplume.bsky.social Mike Plume Band "Rust" mikeplume.bandcamp.com/album/jump-b...

The only CD with a permanent place in my truck is getting a workout this afternoon!

After 1079 days of #CDsOnTheShelf #MusicChallenge we are finished the alphabetical 'general' shelves. Compilation albums will begin sometime next week. The Benoit Leblanc was just received for review while the others were found in the charity shops. I had hope for the Juice, but highlights are few.

Forgot (again) this morning. Day 1078 #CDsOnTheShelf #MusicChallenge Stapleton was inadvertently shoved in a drawer, left vanquished with old socks & ginch. The rest were charity shop finds. Not sure what I liked about the Cake album twenty-plus some years back. Sealed McDades? I'll take 'em.
