A John Mayall clip from The Wayback Machine

In digitizing the mountain of Bruce Van Dyke’s KTHX tapes (circa mid-90’s), we’re also running across miscellaneous TV interviews for concerts we had on tap in Reno/Tahoe back then.

Here’s one from Jiveradio Blues staple John Mayall (clik on pic to view) believed to be from around 1989.

Ever heard of Zeke’s Butterscotch? We’re guessing 1 out of 2 of you have.

Jiveradio/OpenSkyRadio Co-Founder Sheila Cotton has been cooking her family recipe candy commercially for 39 years. She has decided to spend Christmas/candy season 2024 somewhere besides strapped to a candy pot. Hence, her post today to her candy followers:

It’s doesn’t have a lot to do with radio, but it’s got A LOT to do with Jiveradio!

RIP one crazy mofo – MOJO!

One of music’s great Tazmanian Devils picked one helluva exit party:

“August 2, 1957 — February 7, 2024 Mojo Nixon. How you live is how you should die. Mojo Nixon was full-tilt, wide-open rock hard, root hog, corner on two wheels + on fire…,” his family shared in a statement to Rolling Stone. “Passing after a blazing show, a raging night, closing the bar, taking no prisoners + a good breakfast with bandmates and friends.

“A cardiac event on the Outlaw Country Cruise is about right… & that’s just how he did it, Mojo has left the building,” his family’s statement continued. “Since Elvis is everywhere, we know he was waiting for him in the alley out back. Heaven help us all.”
