Hey Ears Try This Out
I present music from 1965 (some digressions) to the current time including Rock, Progressive, Psychedelic, Folk, Hard Rock, Country Rock and anything else I feel like playing. All categories decided by me. It will include short descriptions between tracks addressing artist, song title, album, origin and year. I promise you will hear artists that you’ve NEVER heard before. Do you have to know/recognize the music to enjoy it? GOD, I hope not. I will challenge you, but with the best of intentions. Each show is about 1 hour in length (rare digressions). You can expect/hope for ~ 3 to 4 new shows/week.

There are 4 countries represented on this show: UK, Sweden, Germany and Italy. Some of this show represents the period of time from 1969 to 1972. There was a major shift where the psychedelia from the late-60s switched to a more progressive focus in the early 70s. That type of music was labeled 'Proto-Prog". I think of this era as the emergence of the FM radio extended play format in the US. Patience is a virtue when listening to these tunes. It may take time to realize the great tunes featured here. Game?

What is this? Countrified Folk Rock? Again there is 1 song by first artist AND 2 each the rest of the show. My idea for the title shows a pile of (Folksy) ROCKs in the COUNTRY.
