Dashboard Goteborg.jpg

This week on Dashboard Diaries, DJ RayK is in a pensive mood. We’re going to forego the Ozzy and Def Leppard and do some navel-gazing with the likes of Nick Drake, Alison Krauss, Marshall Krenshaw, Beck, Boz Scaggs, and a bunch of other artists you haven’t thought about in decades. Tune it to KDRT 95.7 FM and KDRT.org Thursday 3-5 p.m. and I promise to keep you amused and/or entertained for a couple of hours.

Fri, 09/11/2026 - 4:00pm | Pieter Pastoor

This week, I’m spinning songs that do a little product placement of their own—tunes that name-drop everything from cars to Coca-Cola.
