In June of 1970, Janis Joplin, The Grateful Dead, Traffic, The Band, Buddy Guy, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Tom Rush, Seatrain, The Good Brothers and others took a two-week train trip across Canada, stopping just long enough on the way to perform three concerts. What they did on the train in between, though...! This week we'll feature music and musings from that long-ago not-very-well-thought-out "trip."

"We support Steve's Folk AND literacy"
____________________________________________________
Steve's Folk is heard Saturday mornings from 9 to 11 am on WCSB Cleveland 89.3 FM or streaming on the web at wcsb.org. AND NOW, RIGHT HERE! Or, more accurately, on the new archive page. Turn it on, tune it in, slip back in time.
Steve's Folk features lyric-intensive genre-bending rockin folk-y music with a message or two. From Greenwich Village 1960, through yesterday: voices of love, protest, anger, kindness, and need. Obscure covers, requests, and songs you haven’t heard since you cut your hair and got a job. New stuff too. Lots of background music info and a little topical commentary. Two hours of Peace, Love and Understanding.Not to mention weekly reports from Steve's Folk Crack News Staff (the news staff that IS on crack), ably led by Steve's Folk Crack News cub reporter Rosco Roginski and with expert commentary by Professor Brian Sobczyk and his lovely bride Dr. Maureen Sobczyk. Occasional smart remarks by Steve.
If you like your folk-y music served to you with a rockin' beat on Saturday mornings, come and set a spell.
NEW NEWS: THANK YOU, LISTENERS, FOR YOUR TREMENDOUS SUPPORT DURING THIS YEAR'S RADIOTHON!!! In these tremen-dously trying economic times, you stepped up and made 2011 Radiothon the best ever! Now you'll have to put up with us for another year. Stay Tuned!
