Latest Radio Crystal Blue and RCB Novus Ordo podcasts were posted 9/16/18
Shows are typically published by the 10th, 20th and last days of each month.
CD Focus segment introduces outstanding concept and compilation albums, aired track-for-track. The latest ones I’m featuring include Billy Swan and Buzz Cason’s tribute to Buddy Holly, and various artists in tribute to Roger Miller.

I plan to reveal a narrative of the program’s history by late 2020. I’ll have a page for each year, telling the story of RCB through the music I aired. It will require audio as well as anecdotal information. Contact me if you have stories or media.

Most shows since 2014 are permanently archived at www.archive.org
