winwoodTonight, we honor Steve Winwood (photo) who burst upon the world stage at age 19 in 1967 with the Spencer Davis Group. Later, he anchored the groups Traffic and Blind Faith. On this week's touchshow, DJ Andy Bargerstock offers two tracks from the John Barleycorn, LP (1970) as well as a more recent track from Nine Lives, CD (2008). Early in the show, you'll also hear an exotic underground music track from Touch (1969), "Down at Circe's Place"(album art right). Listen closely for Winwood's and Brian Auger's versions of Auger's song, "No Time to Live." Treat for the ears.

Friday marks the return of superstar guest Big Al Green. He and Nancy have been traveling all over the place, so it's nice to have them back home. Big Al wrote "Debbie Brill recommended that I take Nancy to see The Hangover. I was very impressed with it. There were many levels going on at once,
plus we both laughed real hard (the most important quality of a comedy).
I am still laughing today at some of the outrageous scenes from the
movie." So ladies, it's not just a guy flick!

Michael Mann (Heat, Collateral, The Insider) is one of our favorite Directors. His latest is Public Enemies, starring Johnny Depp, one of our favorite actors. So is it a classic? Maybe not, according to the critics. Still anxious to see it.
