The Golden Road for 7:00pm on Mar 30th, 2018

This week on the Golden Road, we have our second mix tape show! Back in December 2017, we had the first mix tape show with train and coal mining songs, but this week it is music from the Allman Brothers Band, Jimi Hendrix, Genesis and Pink Floyd. These are all bands that DJ Lee dug way back in the early 1970s, and that he still digs today.

On March 19th, 1978, the Jerry Garcia Band rolled into Pittsburgh for a show at the old Stanley Theatre in support of his forth coming album, Cats Under the Stars and the band served up a spectacular concert that evening. So it only seems natural, here on the fortieth anniversary of this very memorable concert, that we feature hand-selected music from this show on the Golden Road this week. And last but not least, this is DJ Lee’s one-hundredth Golden Road broadcast!

The Golden Road for 7:04pm on Mar 16th, 2018

This week on the Golden Road, DJ Rodriguez joins us as we celebrate bass player extraordinaire Phil Lesh’s seventy-eighth birthday. Phil’s birthday was yesterday, March 15th, (Beware the Ides of March!), and DJ Rodriguez thought what better way to salute his special day than by spinning the glorious 1997 Grateful Dead release: Terrapin Station (Limited Edition) recorded live at the Capital Centre in Landover, Maryland on March 15th, 1990. Rodriguez sez we are “Gonna honor Phil and I got my multitrack beauty ready to rock.” So get ready to rock and take a your hands out of your pockets and tune in DJ’s Lee and Rodriguez!

We are now up to the third host on Golden Road. How can KDRT have three winners in a row? Alligator is the latest star lighting the way down the Road, and an informed host he is bringing bits of Dead history and info to add to the show fun. Tune in for a good time.
