A Blast from the Past

A Blast from the Past is a public radio look back to the 80's and early 90's. This show is more than just a show playing music. Yes, I play some awesome songs but I also reminisce and explore the memories that are associated with a particular tune, time, and the history behind a song or artist.

I have a particular passion for unlocking the memories of the audience and I solicit and air phone calls with the hope that a song will spark a memory from the audience growing up in the 80's. Between phone calls and the tweety box (Twitter), we have a very passionate core audience.

I air a few segments with the show. One segment is the Flashback Favorite which highlights a song that is not played regularly or ever on terrestrial radio. Classic Artist / New Music highlights a brand new release from an 80's artist. Rate the Remake is the most popular segment and features a remake of a classic 80's tune. I play the original back to back with the remake and rate it using a Rotating Thumb Scale.

The mission of the program is to have fun while learning about artists, playing good tunes, and unlocking memories that are associated with the songs.

I hope that you will take a listen and consider airing the show on your station!

Please let me know if you have any questions!
