An exploration of the vast trove of music from the 20th century, from 1999 back to 1928, across multiple genres, generally tied together by a theme of sorts. Lots of the various styles of rock, pop, blues, soul/funk, jazz and more. Sometimes observing musician birthdays and/or album release anniversaries. Once in a while throwing in a new-ish song just to keep you on your toes. Striving for an interesting and enjoyable mix of the familiar and obscure.

B Sides, Brews, and Blues
Buffalo Mike hosts a hybrid music/talk radio show featuring most genres of music that ended up on the “B” sides of albums and 45s, but could have easily been “A” side material, and discusses the art & science of home and commercial brewing with local brewers. The second hour of his show features strictly blues music and interviews.

Closer to the Edge
JD’s “Prog Variety Show” plays the finest classic and modern Progressive Rock and related music from around the world! Progressive Rock (now called Prog to encompass the many sub-genres) evolved in the late 60’s/early 70’s from Psychedelic music to elevate rock to new levels of artistry. Prog bands, then and now, push rock’s technical and composition boundaries by going beyond the standard rock or popular verse-chorus song based structures. Also, the arrangements often incorporate elements drawn from classical, jazz and world music. Long, multi-dimensional pieces are more common while songs with lyrics are sometimes conceptual, abstract, or based in fantasy. Musically, unusual time signatures are frequent as is orchestration and many ‘movements’ within one song. Prog bands sometimes use “concept albums” to tell an epic story or tackle a grand overarching theme. Progressive Rock sub-genres include Jazz Rock/Fusion, Krautrock, Neo-Prog, Prog Folk, Progressive Electronic, Progressive Metal, Psychedelic/Space Rock and many others, plus Proto-Prog.
