Music/Rock

With Pete Lee

With your genial host, Mr. Lee, and a cast of pomaded thousands.

Send Mr. Lee an e-mail.

Mainly Rhythm & Blues, along with other sometimes only distantly related stuff, from the 1940s and 1950s: big voice blues shouters, honking tenor saxophones, fine - fine - superfine vocal group harmony, and powerful women of rhythm and blues.

Don't believe it's possible? Listen to one of the shows from the archives.

Read Across America Day in the Land of the Round Haircut, along with Birthdays-in-Blue for RED SAUNDERS, PAPA LIGHTFOOT, and KURT WEILL
