Off Beat April 23, 2006

Today was another radio appearance on the CFAX 1070 program "Remember When" with guest host Glenn Parfitt filling in for Susan Woods. In the studio with Glenn was Tony McBride from The Motifs and the 2 in todays picture, Don Crocker Tony's bandmate and Gary Wilcox editor-in-chief of Off Beat magazine. To give you an idea of Off Beat's historical significance, the publication preceeded both the Georgia Straight and Rolling Stone and was distributed nation wide. In the picture of Roy Orbison on our April 19th update, Roy had gotten his copy from a music store in Toronto. Listen to todays updates and capture some more music and memories fron the 1960's .
