The Strombo Show - May 5th, 2013

The Wooden Sky stop by to chat with George and perform a few songs. The Toronto band, who were originally known as Friday Morning's Regret, have pumped out three LPs and two EPs in the past five years.  They are now working on their follow up to last year's release.  Watch for it later this year.

Nelson George will chat about his new film "Finding the Funk".  The film takes us on a journey,  exploring the roots of funk in the sixties and its evolution throughout the seventies and eighties.  








On that note, James Brown, the Sex Machine himself, would have turned eighty on May the 
third.  

 

iTunes has been around for ten years?  Really?  iTunes has changed the way we buy and sell our music.  Listen in to hear its story.









 

 Don't worry,  there will  still be the Magnificent Seven, the list of the seven hottest songs of the week as well as 

Ten O'Clock with Tom, the weekly tribute to Tom Waits. 









 
The Strombo Show is on CBC Radio 2 Sundays from 8 pm  until 11 pm.  See you there.
