Mulligan Stew March 29th 2025-Two donors – one named Beresh

Episode Notes

Lucky to have two donors to finish off March shows.

March 29 brings Brian Beresh and Pat Paradis in hour one.

The very same weekend we celebrate the Beresh Arts Den opening and reveal the signage.

As usual, Brian and Pat have very little music input into the hour, BUT I do to have a notebook I brought to our last lunch at the marina below us.

Pat filled up several pages of suggestions that I plan to play before Summer kicks off.

She knows her artists, especially her songs.

When I asked Brian in our interview who he would dream of having on this Den stage, the first name was Wynton Marsalis and the last was Etta James.

Very interesting couple these two.

The second hour is also very interesting.

We’re celebrating Amy Foggin’s 50^th birthday. She’s a big fan of CKUA Radio. Lives in Calgary.

Her daughter Kate collected funds from all her friends to buy and donate two hours of The Stew.

Counting Kate – 44 different people pitched in to donate two hours for Amy.  That’s FORTY FOUR  donors.

All of the above may explain the make up of this playlist.

Which starts with the great Doug Sahm – The Sir Douglas Quintet from Honky Blues

Fantastic Negrito, Elisapie, Steve Earle and Emmylou Harris kick it off.

Great new music from Toby Lee, Fabulous T-Birds. Gems from Norah Jones, Annie Lennox and Paul Simon Live for 10 minutes.

Hour two – for Amy.

Springsteen, Bonnie Raitt and Jackson Browne live, Elle King, North Mississippi All-stars and Mavis, Leeroy Stagger, Maggie Rogers, Leif Vollebekk, The Hip, Tegan and Sara, Frazey Ford, Yoke Lore and finish with CSN and Young – Live at the Fillmore.

Don’t forget The O’Jays, The Band and Mavis  & Aaron Neville.

Cheers – Happy Juno weekend
