This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio # 821

Cheap Trick is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. We have new music from The Doughboys, a TIRnRR debut from Australian pop god Damien Binder, and a 2015 Fave Rave by The Turnback has been reissued.  We survived the winter, and even though an unseasonably snowy April has finally given me the bad cold I avoided during the more traditional winter months, I know true spring is coming.  There will be light, warmth, love, and fun.  And there will be music! Let's start with some music right now.  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
