	8:45am 50 years ago - the Nightbird is hatched: In the warmest recesses in the hearts of NYC radio listeners is ingrained a one-minute song excerpt that debuted New Years Day 1968 - 50 years ago. While vacationing on the West Coast, Alison Steele riffled through a friend's she was staying at albums, and Eureka!, found the perfect theme song for her show. Likely inspired by growing up near a Wakima, WA reservation, gather a few esoteric verses for Elisabeth Waldo's - "Chant to the Sun": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ubd_PFCMR98
	1:24pm Irene Trudel: Thank you, dear listener, for this! I'd never heard the piece Alison Steele used in the clear. She basically was my inspiration for shows throughout my radio career.

Mon. Nov 25th, Noon - 3pm: Bipolar Explorer (More info...)
With the release of their 12th album, Bipolar Explorer continues their beautiful tradition of dream-pop songs and landscapes. "Memories of the Sky" was in part inspired by a Paris exhibition of the works of Louis Janmot, and the reoccurring imagery of protective angels. Frontman Michael Serafin-Wells, along with vocalist/keyboardist Sylvia Solanas visiting from France, recorded a gorgeous live set for Irene.
