In the wake of The Eighth Annual DANA'S FUNKY SOUL PIT on This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio this week, it occurs to me that the first four editions of the Soul Pit predate this blog. It seems appropriate to preserve those solid smokin' playlists in this forum, so we're gonna go back in time to revisit each of 'em, beginning with the Secret Origin. From July 1st of 2012, Boppin' (Like The Hip Folks Do) proudly presents DANA'S FUNKY SOUL PIT # 1.
This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl, Sunday nights from 9 to Midnight Eastern, on the air in Syracuse on SPARK! WSPJ-LP 103.3 and 93.7 FM, and on the web at http://sparksyracuse.org/
Another big ol' hello from Dana & Carl and THIS IS ROCK 'N' ROLL RADIO, the self-described Best Three Hours Of Radio On The Whole Friggin' Planet. Well...! Last week's show was sumpin indeed, as Dana took sole (and SOUL!) control of the playlist for a deep-fried extravaganza we could only call DANA'S FUNKY SOUL PIT, a three-hour BBQ blast o' soul, funk and r 'n' b, served with a smile and some random shots of blues, jazz, doo wop and pure pop. Satisfyin'! This show is now available for download from the Programs section of our website, www.westcottradio.org.
THIS WEEK: TIRnRR's summer of specials continues Sunday night, July 8th, with music selected by our Guest Programmer KEITH KLINGENSMITH! Be there or be missing! And this is what rock 'n' roll radio sounded like in Dana's Funky Soul Pit on a Sunday night in Syracuse last 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.
