Radio Daze

E. Michael Murray and the gang at WGOE revolutionized the radio business in Richmond during the seventies. At the cusp of the transition between AM and FM, the WGOE bad guys saw no boundaries as they burned up the airwaves. Come along as the ADMAN goes amuck, proclaiming "Eat, drink and be Murray" to the high school and college students of that era. If you were there, you'll LOVE Radio Daze. And if you weren't, you'll wish you were. In today's world of auto-pilot radio, it's refreshing to hear tales of live broadcasts and even livelier antics that shaped American life in the seventies.

Rolling Stones Magazine Interview on New Bruce Springsteen Album 

Bruce Springsteen
Late last year Bruce Springsteen invited producer Brendan O'Brien up to his New Jersey house to play him a batch of new songs he had been working on. "It was kind of surreal," says O'Brien, who previously worked with Springsteen on 2002's The Rising and 2005's Devils and Dust. "We literally sat in his living room, he hands me a book of lyrics and he played me the songs on the guitar." O'Brien then had the unenviable task of telling Bruce which songs worked, and which ones didn't. "He gauges peoples reactions and I have to be as honest with him as I can," O'Brien says. "Some of them had a certain voice that seemed to fit all together - and some didn't have that same voice - so we decided which ones to pursue." The songs that survived were taken down to Atlanta's Southern Tracks Studios this March by O'Brien, Springsteen and the E Street Band. The resulting album, Magic, was recorded in eight weeks, and will be released on October 2nd.
