Hello Everyone,

Here is the recap of the May 30 edition of "The Homegrown Rocker," which airs every Sunday night from 8 to 10 PM on Q94 Classic Rock!

This week, we presented the 2021 installment of the annual Memorial Day Special! We remembered past bands and artists from the area music scene, including a few area bands dating back to the 1960s and 70s! And during the program's last half hour, we also remembered some of the fallen area musicians who are no longer with us (with an emphasis on several who passed recently). Always one of our most popular programs every year, our annual trek down "Local Music Memory Lane!" (For those who missed the program, a four-part podcast of this show is available for listening or download from Q94's website, www.q94classicrock.com. Click on "The Professor's Classroom," and then scroll down to "Homegrown Rocker Podcast" and look for the four show segments marked with the date, 053021.)

Here is this week's playlist (with the year of the song and/or musician being remembered in parentheses):
