I am taking a month off from Dawn Eclectica, but I have a special show for you on May 19 from 4-7 am. On July 6, 1957, in the courtyard of St. Peter’s Church Woolton, Liverpool, a meeting occurred that would not only change music but the history of western civilization forever. It was on that sunny day that 16-year old John Lennon, after performing with his band The Quarrymen, was introduced to 15-year old Paul McCartney, who lived in the next township over. Hear a firsthand account of that remarkable meeting from Lennon’s definitive biographer.

Hello KVMR groovy people: Paul Berger here, host of Dawn Eclectica every other Wednesday from 4-7 am. This Tuesday, I get to spin discs during daylight hours when listeners will actually be in a state of conscious alertness, when I host the February 2 Music Magazine from 4-6 pm. I’ve put together a captivating set, with tastes of Crosby Stills, Nash, Eva Cassidy, Boz Scaggs and even Miley Cyrus. Live tracks from Paul Simon, Sting, Mark Knopfler, the Pretenders and more. A hilarious parody about QAnon – “What’s Q Got to Do With It?” And on the Spotlight Showcase, Americana-folk-rock artists Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, a band not played often enough on KVMR but definitely worth a listen (they’ve won several Grammys and earned other accolades). Thanks to KVMR Deejay Johnny Gallagher for letting me sub for him. Hope you’ll join me!
