The WWRH 104.9 FM CD

NOTE .... Be aware that volume varies - A LOT - from file to file
Folder 6600_Jefferson Airplane
• Go To Her ... 1966 version recorded with Signe Toly Anderson.
The song would be re-recorded in 1967 with
Anderson's replacement, Grace Slick.
• Let's Get Together ... Although the Youngbloods' version of Chet Power's
song is better known, the Airplane's 1966 version
is a winner in its own right.
Folder 7200_CashmanWest
Terry Cashman and Tommy West
• American City Suite .. Cashman and West's 1972 tribute to the Big Apple
• Medicine Man .. 1969. Cashman, West and Pistilli as the Buchanan Brothers

• Sunday Will Never Be the Same .. Early 70s. Briefly features Judy Collins
Cashman and West were also known as producers, Jim Croce being among
their clients.

• Caught in the Rain ... instrumental
Folder 7240_Mix01
• Darling Be Home Soon ... from "Slade Alive" (1972 Live in Concert LP)
John Sebastian's classic as interpreted by the English
hard rock group. A "Spontaneous Moment" before the 3rd
verse is a highlight, because of the words that follow.
• House of the Rising Sun ... The Frijid Pink version
• I Can Feel Him in the Morning ... Grand Funk Railroad album classic
• Shotgun (aka Riding Shotgun on the 442)
... BONUS from 1975. Moody Blues drummer Graeme Edge did a solo album
with Adrian Gurvitz, and this song stands out.
Folder 7240_Mix02
• AHDN (Another Hard Day's Night) .. One of the instrumental tracks from the USA
version of the Beatles' HELP soundtrack, done
primarily with Indian instruments.
• Amazing Grace ... Judy Collins' immortal 1970 rendition
• Here Comes the Sun .. Ritchie Havens' brilliant cover of George Harrison's song.
• Marching To Pretoria .. The Smothers Brothers (Dick and Tom) before a live audience
sometime in the early 60s. Some real fun moments here.
Folder 7250_JohnKeating
BONUS -- Although not heard on WWRH, perhaps this is a precursor to New Age.
Keating, a British music maker and producer, released an album called "Space Experience"
in 1972, which includes these instrumentals (original artists) --
• Rocket Man (Elton John)
• Sound of Silence (Paul Simon)
• Star Trek (Alexander Courage)
Folder 7273_Ads
• Macebeth CC 1973 ... The Shakespeare play comes to Columbus College
• Pant-A-Rama ... A long gone Columbus clothing store
• Radio Free USA #1 ... An ode to "Desiderata" -- if not "Deteriorota"
• Radio Free USA #2 ... Roger Miller says it swings. When originally recorded,
a portion of the ad was cut off.
• The Sound Center ... Early 70s stereo store. I believe the voice to be that
of the late Chuck Harris.
• Twilight Zone on WYEA-38 ... Captured from a crudely made February 1973 home
recording. You hear both a promo for the TV show,
as well as a TV-38 Station Identification.
Folder 7273_RHPeople
• Gambler, Gambler ... Decent low quality recording. That may be Lou Nelson's
voice at the beginning.
• Repore CC 1973 ... This was actually recorded two days (Sunday Feb 11th) after
the "Big Snow of 1973". It's the end of the show, and an
unidentified lady announces that Columbus College classes
are called off on Monday.
• Susan Quincy #1 ... Miss Susan IDs the station.
• Susan Quincy #2 ... Miss Susan introduces a series of album cuts.
Folder 7300_Ufo
U.F.O. was a British sci-fi cult series shown on WRBL TV-3 during 1973.

• George Carlin's "Hair" ... from the Ed Sullivan Show
• Deposit A Trillion -- What E.T. really heard when he said "Phone Home"

"Search", starring Hugh O"Brain, Burgess Meredeth,

• "SOS - Baloney" .. Or, how I mixed together Todd Rundgren and Weird Al Yankovic
for my home-made Demented Songs cassette.

the Archies' Bubblegum classic. What you won't hear
is Mr. Frees saying "Would you like a cookie?".
• The TM Song ... Charlie Lloyd's tribute to the ritual Mahareeshi made famous.
Some of the Beach Boys appear as background singers. I apologize
for the noise, as this was recorded to MP3 by a friend who didn't
bother to clean the record first.
