Scott Cook was getting close to the end of his spring 2022 North American Tour and visited Gabriola Island. We took 20 minutes to record a short interview which I spliced up and combined with a retrospective off all his albums. I feature several songs from his recent 2020 release Tangled Souls.

Yikes, another year!

Last week I interviewed Craig Norris from the Guelph band, the kramdens. I have had the pleasure of making music with these guys over their 30 years together as a band. From open stages(playing the Doors) to internet recordings(Gabriola Songs). A bit of a trip down memory lane with one of Canada's best unknown Rock Bands.

It's been one year since the start of the lock down. This is my pandemic song.

Year Or Two

6 feet apart or 6 feet under
Masking my face, living like a prepper
Plexi glass between me an you
They say we get it back in a year or two
Isolation suits me fine I keep my distance, stand in line
Almost out money, rents overdue
They say we get it all back in a year or two

A year or two, a year or two
Where you gonna be in a year or two?

Old folks dying alone and scared
Front line workers treated unfair
Just like you I don’t know what to do
They say we get it all back in a year or two
Ready or not, here I come
You've been tagged, but the game ain’t done
I made it home free, but what about you
They say we’ll get it back in a year or two

A year or two, a year or two
Where you gonna be in a year or two?

Jets stopped flying oil stayed in the ground
The whole world breathed took a look around
Said “this aint no Kobayashi Maru"
Needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few
Needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few
They say we’ll get it back in a year or two

A year or two, a year ot two
Where you gonna be in a year or two?

(Dave Teichroeb 2020).

It's been one year since the start of the lock down. This is my pandemic song. I formed a 3 piece rock band with Kelly Field and Rob Potek during the summer/...

Our Story

Each week a theme. Than a reach into my deep pile of music and out comes a bunch of cuts that wouldn’t normally be played together. A little chater and voila!

Lately I record my show at my home near Silva Bay. I used to drag my tired body down Gabriola Island, wait for a ferry, ride a ferry, walk through Nanaimo, jump into the control booth and go live to air for one hour playing the music that I love. Now I whittle it down and make a podcast(coming soon) so that you can enjoy it at your leisure.
