After you've enjoyed Come By The Hills with Sara Hillis for the last time, tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 PM to 05:00 PM, don't touch that dial, device, PC, Mac, smart speaker or tablet and join me for The Early Years, where and when you'll hear the best music from the first quarter century of Rock with occasional nods to other decades and genres.
But don't worry, Sara will still be with you with Come By the Hills, just at a new/old time, Sunday evening at 08:00 PM. Decades In HD with P.J. Noce will precede me on Saturday afternoon beginning next week.
It's a momentous episode of Come by the Hills this week, celebrating the latest live album by Loreena McKennitt called The Road Back Home. Recorded at a couple of summer folk festivals in 2023, The Road Back Home hearkens back to Loreena's roots in folk clubs and as a busker in the late 70s and 80s. I'll be playing the entire album throughout the show, as well as some small items in Loreena's own words about each of the ten tracks. I'll also be playing other fantastic Folk and Celtic selections for your enjoyment.

The "Juke In The Back" focuses on the " soul that came before rock n' roll," the records that inspired Elvis, Buddy Holly, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and countless others.
This week, the entire "Juke In The Back" is loaded with records from the catalog of Duke and Peacock Records.
Don Robey started Peacock in 1949 in order to record Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown, whom he also managed. In 1953, Robey took over Duke Records (which was owned by David J. Mattis and Bill Fitzgerald) and a R&B empire was born.
This week on Deep Dive, through an archive programme, we enjoy the wonderful voice and outstanding lyrics of American folk singer Joan Baez. We hear about the night they drove old Dixie down, long for Jesse and decide that it ain't me babe.
Tune in at 4 PM Eastern Monday, which is 8 AM Tuesday in much of Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, which is 10 PM in the same parts of Eastern Australia. If you have a smart speaker, and you tell it to play Mushroom FM, it will whisk you there in a nanosecond, or sometimes just a little bit longer.
Yes, it's time once again to get thoroughly Welshified on the Folk and Celtic music show, because March 1 is St. David's Day, Wales's major national festival! We'll hear many lovely songs yn Cymraeg (in Welsh) with a few English ones thrown in for good measure, so I hope you'll join me. We'll keep a welcome for you, to be sure!
So, catch Come by the Hils live on Saturday at 2:00 PM Eastern, or check out the replay on Tuesday at 5:00 AM Eastern! Whenever you can listen, I hope you'll enjoy it! Dydd gwyl Dewi Sant! (Happy St. David's Day!)

Have you ever wondered who wrote the book of love, where do broken hearts go, if this is love, or just wh? Then you will enjoy hearing all of these questions asked musically on The Song Remembers When. Tune in at 4 pm Eastern this Sunday, March 3, (and, seriously, my question is how on Earth is it March already?) I will bring you songs that ask questions in their titles. I'm sure I will play songs that bring back memories for you, and possibly a few songs you've never heard before. Can't join me on Sunday? No problem!
