Johnny Shuffles March 21, 2006
It's John Fisher from Blues X Five in todays picture taken at the Memorial Arena June 17, 1967. Dontcha love guys like him who have everything written down. John is going to take his notes and excellent sense of recollection to CFAX 1070 AM this Sunday as a guest of the Susan Woods program "Remember When" and talk about Victoria's history of the Blues and it's musical evolution locally over 3 decades. By the way, did you know that Susan's show won a 'Heritage Preservation' award by the Hallmark Society? Congratulations on a recognition well deserved. Tune in this Sunday from 2:00p-3:00p and listen to some awesome music and memories. Live out of town? You can get it in streaming audio on the web at www.cfax1070.com
What's coming next? Well a little birdie told me that a few more lost tapes have been found, this time in Kelowna. Some of the artists on these tapes are:
- Bobby Faulds & The Strangers... Live
- The Canadian Strangers... Demo Tracks
- The Wayward Trio... Live
- Bobby Faulds "LP"... tracks from an actual recording, he did in Europe as "Bobby Hanna".
Stay tuned for more on this incredible find.
