THIS IS ROCK 'N' ROLL RADIO # 810

Oh, this week’s extravaganza on THIS IS ROCK ‘N’ ROLL RADIO with Dana & Carl? Yeah, flawless again. Resolutely okay, at the very least. We even had brand-new music from former KLAATU drummer TERRY DRAPER (with backing vocals from TIRnRR’s own A & R Gal, Elizabeth “BABY” Racz!). We then padded our billable hours with all of the varied delights listed below, and felt pretty damned good about ourselves. Great radio is its own reward! And this is what rock ‘n’ roll radio sounded like on a Sunday night in Syracuse this week.

THIS IS ROCK ‘N’ ROLL RADIO with Dana & Carl streams live every Sunday night from 9 to Midnight Eastern, exclusively at www.westcottradio.org
