This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio # 934

Greetings yet again from This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl. Business, gents. Got to care of business. I wanna tell you about my new boys The Wonders....

Wait--sorry! I thought I was Play-Tone Records president Sol Siler for a second there. We wanna talk about the legendary Syracuse pop trio Screen Test, who have a new CD called Through The Past, Brightly due out this week. And it's just in time for a rare live Screen Test show this Saturday, August 4th, at The Ridge in Chittenango. If you're anywhere in the Western Hemisphere this Saturday, well, you need to be at The Ridge at 6 pm for SCREEN TEST! You have your orders. Carry on.

We opened this week's Best Three yadda yadda Friggin' Planet with a track from that very same new Screen Test CD, and then it was on to MORE adventure. A new single from The Jangle Band! A new 7" white vinyl EP from Sex Clark Five (sportin' the unforgettable title Mrs. Von Braun You've Got A Lovely Daughter)! Another new Harry Nilsson cover by TIRnRR Fave Raves Steve Stoeckel & Rich Firestone! All this, and THE BAY CITY ROLLERS! We got a radio show! We're always willing to use it!

And NEXT WEEK: we use it for a cherished annual tradition on This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio! Yes, it's the return of DANA'S FUNKY SOUL PIT! 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, Sunday nights from 9 to Midnight Eastern, on the air in Syracuse on The Spark WSPJ-LP 103.3 and 93.7 FM, and on the web at http://sparksyracuse.org/
