Tonight’s Show is a little less progressive as I have been wanting to spend time with those great tunes a lot of us grew up listening to on AM radio before long play. Happy Music from the past 3 hours that I thought you would enjoy. No setlist tonight but here are the Guess Who, Young Rascals, Creedence, Hollies, First Addition, Zombies, Jay & the Americans, Marmalade, Human Beinz, Grassroots, Buckinghams, Young Bloods, Orange Room, Boyce & Hart, Brewer & Shipley, Rare Earth, Steppenwolf, Maria Muldaur, Gerry Rafferty, Iron Butterfly, Toto, and the last hour Firefall. Some really good music that I don’t often play, I hope you love it as much as I did and do.
Nice set, songs, and night! Beam on up and kick back!

Magic Mushroom Hour with Omega Evolution of the Beatles Sound Episode 2306

Sunday Sep 24, 2023
Sorry, it took me 2 weeks to put this episode together as I have always been interested in how the young lads from Liverpool emerged from a club bar to write, perform, and record a book of music that changed the World. I wanted a progression of music from each of their albums to mark the changes in sound, writing, and studio experimentation. We most often listen to bits and pieces of their albums from this huge volume of material and don't really track the progress in their abilities. I hope you find this interesting as I loved putting it together. It's all good and the journey was quite remarkable especially if you follow the changes in culture that paralleled their short period of time together as a group. The Beatles.
