Purple Rain is in the forecast...

Commencing countdown, engines on...
Coming up @Rick_Daddy is receiving signals from planet Bowie for the 10th annual Bowie Bash on LOTD. Tune in for all sorts of oddities, space & otherwise, from the greatest Star Man of his generation: David Bowie. And yes, tomorrow marks 10 years since Ziggy left us for Mars.
It's always the most bittersweet Left of the Dial episode of the year...
You’re invited to tonight’s Memorial Service on Left of the Dial. @Rick_Daddy pays respect to the musicians we’ve lost in 2025. It’s gonna be an epic night! Coming up at 7pm on KUTX and kutx.org
INCOMING...
It's a flashback to 1985 tonight on Left of the Dial. @Rick_Daddy is bringing the deep cuts from 40 years ago: pop, new wave, and plenty of buried treasure from the indie underground. It promises to taste better than the "New Coke" (the scourge of 1985). Tonight from 7-10pm
Party at the moon tower is happening in 3...2...1
Whether you were into Patti Smith or @DavidBowieReal @bobdylan or @jonimitchell , 1975 is a ripe year for revisiting. And tonight, @Rick_Daddy commands the radio from his Starsky & Hutch Gran Torino blasting music from 50 years ago. 7-10 tonight on Left of the Dial.
Rick McNulty retweeted
Ah, #ValentinesDay. Whether you're celebrating, dreading, or ruing the "holiday," @Rick_Daddy has all the moods covered coming up on Left of the Dial. Tune in at 7 for blissful love songs, 8 for heartbreaks and regrets, and at 9 for a scorched earth where all hearts turn black.
And we're off to Mars!
9yrs ago today @DavidBowieReal returned back to Mars for good. Tonight, @Rick_Daddy spins deep cuts and buried treasure the Starman left behind coming up on Left of the Dial. Expect a healthy dose of Ziggy-era tracks and a new perspective on "Boys Keep Swinging." 7-10pm on KUTX
Gonna stick the landing for my favorites of 2024.
Coming up 7pm, it's @Rick_Daddy's Best Things I Heard All Year. Join him as he wraps up 2024 with songs by The Dare, Jessica Pratt, Orla Gartland, Jesus Lizard and more! Tune in 7-10 tonight as RD guides 2024 to a soft landing on KUTX and kutx.org
You're gonna love to hate the best thing I heard this week.
Yesterday we threw #ThrowbackThursday, tonight it's #FreakyFriday 1974. @Rick_Daddy plays all the good stuff (and some so bad they can't help being good) from 50 years ago. It will be quite a night to remember (or forget) on Left of the Dial. 7pm on KUTX
My interview with the illustrious @brittdaniel is now online for your listening enjoyment. We discuss the 10th anniversary of @spoontheband's They Want My Soul. Spoiler alert: we have a lot of fun chatting. kutx.org/sessions-inter…
@MikeHaverland @KUTX @JodyDenberg I'll do my best not to drive it into a ditch.
@CentTrailMusic I don't see anything with your email address. Did you send it to [email protected]? Or try it again and let me know.
Commencing countdown, engines on...
It's hard to believe it's been 8 years since the Starman departed Earth. Tonight on Left of the Dial @Rick_Daddy celebrates the life and music of @DavidBowieReal. Expect a wide array of gems, outtakes, and curiosities that only Bowie could provide. #Bowie
@KentKronenberg That is all sorts of awesome.
@tedgioia The beat I've ever heard: youtube.com/playlist?list=…
@DevonAthans Delighted to be of service!
You can hear my Top 5 Countdown of The Best Things I Heard This Year just after 8pm.
Tonight @Rick_Daddy wraps up the season with The Best Things I Heard This Year. Hear a wide array of songs discovered in 2023, from indie acts like @annabsavage @waterfromyreyes to giant @LittleSimz. It's the best 4hr mixtape you'll hear all year, only on Left of the Dial.
It's gonna be a good one...starting NOW.
Most ppl don't like to work on their birthday, but @Rick_Daddy likes his job so much that he's hosting Left of the Dial tonight. He's treating the show like his own jukebox playing songs he absolutely, positively loves. Coming up 7pm on KUTX and kutx.org
