June 26, 2026 Mulligan Stew

hello

This week, the  Stew has two donor hours.

The first hour celebrates the birth of Doc Pomus, one of the all-time great songwriters who helped shape popular music.

He wrote hits for The Drifters, Ray Charles, Elvis and many more.

We start with Lonely Ave (Ray Charles), Young Boy Blues (Robert Plant and The  Honey Drippers), A Mess of blues (Elvis), and a song Doc  Pomus wrote to his bride  at their  wedding reception, and  because he was in a wheelchair,  due to polio,  he wrote   Save the Last Dance for me (The Drifters)

Classics from Rickie Lee Jones and Otis Redding. New music from Joe Bonamassa, Second-Hand Dream Car./

Hour Two donor asked for “kick-ass” Canadian female singers from the mid-80s to mid-90’s.

We start with Heart Live at Kennedy Centre Honours and Stairway to Heaven for honorees Led Zeppelin.
Joni Live, k.d.lang, Alanis Morissette, Susan Aglukark, Jann Arden, and Janis Joplin Live at McMann Stadium for the Festival Express.

And finally, an Ian Hunter Song for a listener in Scotland.

June 13, 2026 Mulligan Stew 0:44:20

hello

OK.  These guys are the real deal. Even though they are from Canada’s West Coast, they sound and play like they grew up in Memphis or Muscle Shoals.

Great grooves, hot horns, just a solid laid back soul. Like Otis and Al Green used to lay down.
They have an album out called I was Wrong. It’s taken the better part of a year for “the word” to get around. It’s a big country, but take a look at their Summer Tour. Not all of the info, but stuff you can use.

Mulligan Stew June 13th – Donor Driven. Great Tunes for your Saturday

June 13, 2026 Mulligan Stew

hello

Ok. First things first…
June 13 is World Chenin Wine Day. I made a decision to celebrate one of my favourite white wines by listening to The Stew, not during recording. But it was close.
Two great donor hours.
Hour One – Michael and Maggie suggested a guitar segment.. See below!!
> The Second Hour?  Jeff sent a lifetime of CKUA memories. From losing the signal and the comeback. Shaking the new donor bell and discovering the old 5th-floor bathroom was jammed with boxes of records. The donor is living in Toronto but is really connected to Alberta through CKUA. Dedicated the hour “to all those at CKUA,  on air and off, that we have lost.”

A Great read.

Hour one asks for a guitar “thing.”
So,  Derek Trucks, Joe Bonamassa & Jimmy Vaughn. Eric Clapton &  John Mayer.  Carlos Santana  & Steve Winwood, and then a great advance single from Harry Manx. Called Pork Pie Turban. Also, an incredible one-off cover of Ry Cooder’s I Can’t Win Your Love (from Bop til you Drop)by the Bros. Landreth in a pub in Dublin. It’s simply amazing.
Also, two tracks from The Highwomen, led by Brandi Carlile, live at The Gorge.
Plus a quick rundown of the NYTimes readers’ poll Top 100 living American songwriters.
(Smokey and Zimmy)
And lots more.

Tell yer Pal.

Edmonton Folk Music Festival on Mulligan Stew

Mulligan Stew June 6th 2026-Terry Wickham Producer/Artistic Director of Edmonton Folk Festival

June 5, 2026 Mulligan Stew

hello

Our guest is Terry Wickham.

Terry Wickham on Mulligan Stew 2026
Terry Wickham, producer and creative director of the Edmonton Folk Music Festival, spends his entire year searching for just the right artists to showcase on the stages of his folk festival. Terry has been producing the festival for 38 of its 47 years.
Right off the top, we talked about the “new” audience for the Festival and which artists he booked for the next generation of Festival-goers.
Arrested Development, Buffalo Traffic Jam, Cat Power, Leif Vollebekk, Of Monsters and Men, Milk Carton Kids, Amble, The Womack Sisters, Thee Sacred Souls, etc.
The headliners include 
Nathaniel Rateliff, Arrested Development, Amble,  Corb Lund, St. Paul and the Broken Bones, Annie and the Caldwells, etc.
Terry takes us through the years and artists that stood out.  Also, a handful of nights that became legendary.
I asked him, “Where are his new audiences coming from?” and he reminded me that kids 12 and under get in free, and anyone slightly older gets in for half price. Which means that whole families can attend, and those younger family members are the newest music fans.
I loved the fact that if he gets a call from someone who can’t afford the tickets, he’ll work something out.
Speaking of tickets, they went on sale  Saturday at 10 am.

Mulligan Stew May 30th 2026-Saluting The White Album

May 29, 2026 Mulligan Stew

hello

May 30, 1968, following a long trip to India and back, The Beatles met at EMI Studios in  London and began recording the first of 30 songs for what would become The White Album (officially called The Beatles).
While they were living in India, they studied Transcendental  Meditation with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and wrote 19 of the songs they would record. The White Album is considered by many to be one of the best albums ever recorded. Playing four of those songs for you. Donors with the correct mantra get 5.

Over the Stew’s two hours, we also have classics from

The Beatles White Album era-1968

The Beatles White Album-1968

 

Ray Charles and Van Morrison and Van’s song to Ray
Frazey Ford, The Heptones, John Fogerty (live), BB King, Elton John, Black and the Rodeo Kings, The Slackers, Bonnie Raitt, The Velveletts, Chuck Berry, The Isley Brothers, and Leonard Cohen.
New songs and donor songs from Belinda Carlisle, Led Zeppelin, Lake Street Dive, Susan Tedeschi, Ian Moore, Robert Plant and David Gray.

Mulligan Stew May 23rd 2026-A Bob Fest and Leeroy Stagger Interview in Hour Two

May 22, 2026 Mulligan Stew

hello

Bob Dylan turns 85 on Sunday. Besides our other guest, Leeroy Stagger and his just-released album, Pilgrimage, in Hour Two  it’s wall-to-wall Bob and the artists he influenced.
George Harrison
Joe Cocker and Leon Russell
Mavis Staples and Levon Helm
The Finale Cast of The Last Waltz.
We are ALL so lucky to be living in Bob’s time frame.  We get to watch the albums and songs appear and take on a life of their own.
Best of all, Bob’s still cooking. Leading the way. Happy Birthday, Zimmy.
Sharing the second hour of this week’s Stew is our own Leeroy Stagger. He’s the host of Dirty Windshield Radio Hour Saturdays on CKUA Radio.
His latest album is about to be released. It’s called Pilgrimage.

Terry David Mulligan and Leeroy Stagger 2026

Leeroy found inspiration by reading Alister McIntosh’s brilliant  book “Soil and Soul.”
“I wanted to write on the Highland Clearances of the 1700s that pushed my ancestors from Scotland to Northern Ireland and ultimately Nova Scotia. The repercussions of colonialism that  shake the branches of my family tree and sadly still ring  out throughout my home country of Canada today.”
“it was always so strange to me that I felt more at home in Scotland than in my own country; it makes perfect sense to me now. There is a deep ancestral grief for where we once called home”
Key to these songs and the entire album is the partnership Leeroy entered into with East Coast legend Joel Plaskett. They played, wrote and produced together.
Joel suggested to Leeroy that they use his  Tascam 388, an old 1/4″ 8-track machine. Joel convinced me on the magic, and I  started to see the humanness of  tape, in all of it’s warm and unpredictable glory”
 
“At this point, we have to ask ourselves what kind of world we want to live in. Digital isolation or a community forward offering of storytelling, of truth in the natural world, of something tangible and real; a bit of the old ways.”
 
Pilgrimage might just help us find it 
 
Hour one starts with a donor suggestion for Larkin Poe followed by Hiss Golden Messenger, Whitehorse, old Stones and Fleetwood Mac, new Charlie Musselwhite, new Rodney Crowell, if I could speak to Leonard, followed by Leonard himself.
 
 
The full Leeroy interview is available on the Mulligan Stew Podcast. Leeroy gets rolling on the subject of community…and talks openly about hosting Dirty Windshields Radio Hour and how that community healed certain issues within him.
 
  
 
It’s quite a listen.
 
Thinking of Baba. Remembering Baba.

Randy Bachman Interviewed On Mulligan Stew

Mulligan Stew May 16th 2026- Special Guest is Randy Bachman. The Guess Who & BTO

May 15, 2026 Mulligan Stew

hello

Once again, I was lucky to be in the right place at the right time and got to experience the lift off of the first Canadian artist to hit #1 in the USA.

Before they became world famous, they were another prairie band trying to get the bosses in Toronto to notice them.

I was at CJME and CKCK in Regina, and over one early 60’s summer, they spent the hot months playing at beach parties and small halls.

One after the other.

The Guess Who

Then the hits started to roll, and I ended up going to London, UK, with them, to cover the story.

Except the story was a bust.

 Poorly planned on the London end, they played a couple of tv shows and came home.

Then came These Eyes,  American Woman and fame.

After the Guess Who split up, another set of musicians decided to take the name and run with it, for 13 years.

Legalities carried on for many years but eventually Randy and Burrton Cummings..the two original guys, got the name back and that’s why the upcoming Guess Who Tour is called the ” taking it back tour.”

 

The complete interview with Randy can be heard on the Mulligan Stew Podcast and seen on the TDM YouTube Channel.

 

Tour dates in the West…

 

 

 

 

There’s new music from

Taj Mahal (it’s his birthday)

William Prince

Sarah McLachlan

I’m with her

 

Also, play some bands that influenced the Guess Who

Faces

Beach Boys

And two Beatles songs. Both from the white album

Several Taj Mahal songs.

Amy Winehouse

Derek Trucks

John Hiatt

 

Taking it back tour dates

Mulligan Stew May 9th 2026- Hey. We made it to May! An interview with Chris Wood

May 9, 2026 Mulligan Stew

hello

A confession!

I loved playing and listening to   Medeski. Martin and Wood.
Then I followed The Wood  Brothers through 9 albums.

Makes me a fan.   Chris Wood was/is a vital member of both bands.

The media and some music fans painted the brothers as a Jam Band. They are anything but.
Jazz and roots/ blues driven with themes and lyrics that dive into human behavior.
Almost all songs are wrapped in a sensual groove.
All songs written and created by an amazing trio. Chris’s brother Oliver and Jano Rix, who’ll play any instrument put in front of him.
New album – Puff of Smoke is the best yet.
The Brothers are also celebrating the 20th anniversary of their debut album Ways not to Love.
The Wood Bros
Chris’s personal journey has taken him to a beautiful Wilder Wood farm on Pender Island, one of the best of the Gulf Islands on the West Coast of BC.
He and his biologist wife farm organic vegetables and sell them at the Pender Farm Market on the island.
A percentage of the brothers’ ticket sales goes to helping farmers. On both sides of the border.
I caught up with Chris in an airport heading for an opening tour gig in Scottsdale, Arizona.
In the complete interview on the Mulligan Stew Podcast, he finished the chat walking to the gate.
The Wood Brothers play the Hollywood Theatre in Vancouver on May 9.
Besides lots of new songs and classics, we salute Little Richard, Bruce Springsteen’s big career break, and an update on The Guess Who Canadian Taking It Back Tour.

Randy Bachman guests next week. LeeRoy Stagger in two weeks.
Thanks all
