Shows Worth Hearing Pt 1

Mark LaMarr hosts this look at music from the 50s, Rock and Roll, Rockabilly and the like from both sides of the "pond". Keep an eye on the BBC website, Mark does 10 shows at a time, then goes on hiatus for a few weeks/months. I'll post a heads up when it returns.

Who is Randy? Randy Bachman of The Guess Who and Bachman Turner Overdrive. Each show runs 2 hours, and usually has a theme. Randy plays lots of music, and presents the show in a conversational way, often strumming his guitar as he speaks. Great stuff!
