TONIGHT!! We in the Red Meat organization had many nicknames for our red hot Telecaster player Michael Montalto: Guitar Show, The Great Montalto (sometimes shortened to The Great One), The Rockridge Rocker, and most commonly, Monty.

But TONIGHT on Highway of Heartaches, we'll just call him GUEST DJ!

That's right, Michael Montalto will be joining forces with Smelley and Owen to play songs from his own extensive record collection. There'll be some songs you know, some obsurities, and tons of fun, the likes of which you can only experience when you travel on the Highway of Heartaches!

So join Michael, Smelley, and Owen tonight on the Highway of Heartaches, 8:30 - 10:00 Pacific Time, ONLY on KWMR radio in Marin County, and livestreaming worldwide at kwmr.org
