It’s a week of stars on Pure Pop Radio’s specialty shows: Cream, Denny Laine and Muddy Waters are on the turntable during an all-new Needle Meets Vinyl; Paul McCartney’s golden voice is discussed on an all-new Things We Said Today, and Suzzy Roche and Lucy Wainwright Roche talk about their latest album on Pure Pop Radio: In Conversation.
Tonight at 8 pm ET on Pure Pop Radio: In Conversation, Suzzy Roche and her daughter, Lucy Wainwright Roche, talk with Alan Haber about Mud and Apples, a sparkling duo collection that features warm harmonies, clever original songwriting and the inclusion of beautifully-sung covers such as Paul Simon’s “Bleecker Street” and the Cascades’ “Rhythm of the Rain.” Mud and Apples is one of this year’s top expressions of musical joy.
Tomorrow night, July 6 at 8 pm ET, Brian Bringelson spins the classic sides that light up your musical life on Needle Meets Vinyl. Brian pours a bit of Cream, the Hollies, the Mindbenders, The Journeymen, and man more of your favorite artists, and it’s all from vinyl. It’s another spectacular episode of your favorite all-vinyl program.
This Thursday night, July 7 at 8 pm ET, Ken Michaels, Steve Marinucci, Al Sussman and Allan Kozinn man the microphones on Things We Said Today. They discuss the state of the Beatles’ inner circle, which is getting smaller due to some wonderful people passing on. Also under discussion: the quality of Paul McCartney’s voice. Does this do damage to his legacy? All this, and, yes, the Pure McCartney discussion makes another appearance!

It is my great pleasure to speak with Suzzy Roche and her daughter, Lucy Wainwright Roche, on Pure Pop Radio: In Conversation next Tuesday night, July 5, at 8 pm ET.
Mud and Apples, Lucy and Suzzy’s recently-released album, is a sparkling duo collection that features warm harmonies, clever original songwriting and the inclusion of beautifully-sung covers such as Paul Simon’s “Bleecker Street” and the Cascades’ “Rhythm of the Rain.” Mud and Apples is an 11 track masterpiece that is surely one of this year’s top expressions of musical joy.
James Starflower | Pet Your Stereo Pop smarts shower these 10 imagination-fueled songs, produced by Fernando Perdomo with his usual magic touch. The Lennonesque “Baby This is Your Life,” which takes a 360-degree turn towards the end with a Paul McCartney-accented “Hello Goodbye” fade, and the rocker “Echolocation,” with its shimmering guitars and impassioned vocals, lead the pack. Pet’s bonus track, the amazing, 1930s-meets-Beatles-meets-today retro gem “So Let’s Bring on the Gershwin Girls,” is another winner. Another great album, full of invention and whip-smart performances, that will surely hang its hat on a variety of best-of lists this year.
Bryan Estepa and the Tempe Two | Every Little Thing Sydney, Australia’s Bryan Estepa, veteran of late ’90s band Swivel and a long-standing solo artist, takes center stage with this top-notch collection of melodic etchings. Single-worthy popper “Don’t Hurry Baby” is a wonderful highlight, as is the gorgeous ballad “Sooner or Later.” Missing this one shouldn’t be an option. Put Every Little Thing on your to-own list.
