The First Saturday Night Show - Feb 4 2006
Shawn and I are delighted to report that our first show in the Saturday slot went just swimmingly. I hope all listeners had as good a time as we did. The show had a bit of a Black History Month theme to fit in with the overall thrust of programming for the month of Feb at CKUT. Maximum respect to all the great musicians of African descent who have made the world a better place for everyone!
