The Sound Of Plaid was a weekly radio program syndicated internationally on four internet and broadcast stations. Co-hosted by my wife Christy, about 240 two-hour shows were created featuring an incredibly wide variety of music genres, musical histories, and special guests. Memorable show themes include Songs About Johnny, Outsider Music, The Retro-Future of Music, Top 20 Countdown of the Most Sampled Songs, Art’s Birthday, The Art Of Noises 100th Birthday, Expired Cultural Icons, and Listener Request shows where listeners could make vague requests only — no specific songs.
