There's nothing better than the jingle-jangle sound of the Rickenbacker electric 12-string. That's my opinion, and today, Monday, from noon till 2pm on WRUW, I'll make the case. We'll feature all 8 Signature Edition stars, plus other axemasters, and give an honorable mention to Lemmy. Tune in WRUW, 91.1fm in the CLE, or stream us at wruw.org.

The music evolved from folk to folk-rock to rock, and we have it all. So tune in to Steve's Folk Radio Show today, Monday, from noon till 2pm on WRUW, 91.1fm in the CLE and streaming at wruw.org. Happy washday!

Joni Mitchell said “When I first came out to L.A. I found an old book in a flea market that said: Ask anyone in America where the craziest people live and they’ll tell you California. Ask anyone in California where the craziest people live and they’ll say LA. Ask anyone in LA where the craziest people live and they’ll tell you Hollywood. Ask anyone in Hollywood where the craziest people live and they’ll say Laurel Canyon.

That's a great description of today's Steve's Folk Radio Show! Tune in today, Monday, from noon till 3pm on WRUW 91.1fm in the CLE and streaming everywhere else at wruw.org!

On Labor Day weekend 1969, scarcely two weeks after Woodstock, thousands upon thousands of hippies and shorter-haired young people from all over descended on another outdoor musical gathering. This one, held at the Dallas International Motor Speedway was the Texas International Pop Festival.

Artists performing at the festival were: Canned Heat, Chicago Transit Authority, James Cotton, Delaney and Bonnie and Friends, Grand Funk Railroad, Janis Joplin, B.B. King, Led Zeppelin, Nazz, Rotary Connection, Santana, John Sebastian, Sly and the Family Stone, Spirit, Sweetwater, Ten Years After, Tony Joe White, Johnny Winter, the immortal Shiva's Headband and the equally immortal Space Opera.

Steve's Folk Radio Show has all the music, so tune in today, Monday, from noon till 3pm, on WRUW 91.1fm in the CLE and streaming at wruw.org. Be kind to your neighbor!

Welcome… Steve's Folk Radio Show promised you some festival music this summer, so…The era of the big rock festival is littered with the legendary, the local and the forgotten. Woodstock and Monterey may have the fame, and Altamont the tragedy, but among the ruins of the rock-festival era sits an interesting curiosity known as the Newport Pop Festival.

Actually. two curiosities. On 3 and 4 August,1968, and again on 20 to 22 June 1969, the all-but forgotten festivals took place at the Orange County Fairgrounds in Costa Mesa, Calif. And again in Northridge, California, at Devonshire Downs, formerly a racetrack.

Newport Pop was the first pop music concert with over 100,000 paid attendees. Admission to the festival was $5.50 per day – to sit in the midsummer California heat and dust.

Three days after the 1968 event, the Costa Mesa City Council vowed to prevent a Newport Pop Festival encore. "To say that we would not like it back here would be the understatement of the year," said Mayor Alvin Pinkley. But in the meantime, I’ve gathered them all here for your boogie-ing pleasure.

Tune in today, Monday, from noon till 3pm on WRUW, 91.1fm in the CLE and streaming everywhere at wruw.org!

For countless eons, poets, philosophers, drunks and DJs have looked to the moon for inspiration for their innermost desires. There’s a huge difference, for example, between mooning over someone, which means you’ve lost your heart, and mooning someone, well, meaning you lost your shorts. See what I mean?

Well, anyway, today marks the 57th anniversary of man standing on the surface of Luna and so today’s show is just one small step for Steve’s Folk Radio Show, and another small step for WRUW, 91.1fm in the CLE and streaming across the universe at wruw.org. Tune in today, Monday, 20 July, noon till 3pm for 3 solid hours of the music you absolutely adore. I should mention that in the 3rd hour we have some very special music set aside for all you Cancers and Leos.
