Travel back through the music and memories of August 21 with CLASSICKONG and WTSG-DB! 🦍🎙️🇺🇸

Today we’re turning it up with Metallica’s Garage Days Re-Revisited, Anthrax’s Persistence of Time and the heavy guitars of RATT’s Detonator—plus a special salute to legendary songwriter and producer Desmond Child.

We celebrate Glenn Hughes on his 75th birthday with warm wishes for better health and a CLASSICKONG recommendation for the absolutely crushing Resonate. We remember Joe Strummer, deal a hand with Kenny Rogers and “The Gambler,” and spend some time swinging with the legendary Count Basie.

Then we revisit the unforgettable Dirty Dancing soundtrack and Patrick Swayze’s “She’s Like the Wind”—because, as we like to say, nobody puts music in a corner!

And don’t miss a very personal appreciation of Linda Ronstadt’s Cry Like a Rainstorm, Howl Like the Wind, a record CLASSICKONG considers the pinnacle of her extraordinary voice. We’ll also discover the remarkable story behind “Adios”—written by Jimmy Webb, with beautiful harmony vocals from Brian Wilson.

We’ll celebrate National Senior Citizens Day, find out why CLASSICKONG keeps looking in our direction 😂, and finally investigate the strangely named but apparently delicious spumoni.

Music history, memories, laughs and a few discoveries along the way.

Pull up a chair, partner. The cards are dealt and CLASSICKONG is all in. 🤠🃏

WTSG-DB — Great Music. Great Radio. Great Community. ❤️🎶🦍🎙️🇺🇸
