Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

HBO Young Pope, dare I ask? It does sound like a good name for a band...

Hi all, evening Evan. Tuning in late, seeing I missed a number of good tunes. If I recall, didn't one member of Little Sister become Mrs. Leon Russell a few years later?

I guess I was only partially paying attention to previous airings of this tune in weeks past, because I thought the singer kept proclaiming "I'm Jimmy Castor." Which I knew he wasn't.
