This Is Rock ‘n’ Roll Radio # 937

by ·

This week, I stayed home and Dana delivered: Aretha Franklin, The Collins Kids, and a plethora of rock ‘n’ soul women, ladies, and girls. And Larry Collins! As always, we hold this truth to be self-evident: this is The Best Three Hours Of Radio On The Whole Friggin’ Planet. And this is what that 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/
