132 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 3 years ago -

It's called Green Beans, Mushroom Soup & Strawberry Ice Cream. What the hell does that even mean!? It means I can play whatever the f..k I want to... just like radio used to do when it was real. Before it was all politics. When it wasn't owned by record companies who forced it to do their bidding. Real radio.

Covers (KiNg SiZed)

March 20, 2021 18:05 - 1 hour - 100 MB

Ever wondered why an established artist records someone else's song? Why not just record another original? Well... the cover tunes that well-established artists record must be pretty special right? Exactly... thanks for keeping up! Check out songs from Pink Floyd, Linkin Park, Joni Mitchell, Pearl Jam, George Michael, Prince, Alanis Morrisette... only they're not really on this show - only their songs are... and a whole whack of soul tunes redone!

Mostly Local Traffic

February 27, 2021 06:51 - 1 hour - 101 MB

There's a whole whack of great talent, right here in our backyard of Vancouver, BC... almost enough for a "Local Traffic" show! Not quite though, so I did have to pull in a few out-of-towners for "Mostly Local Traffic". Some real quality music here though - and you've never heard it before. Be the first one on your block! That makes you one of the cool ones! Featuring "Ophelia Falling", "Matlen Starsley Band", "Hot Lips", "The Steve Keenan Band", "Camille Miller", "The Blue Voodoo", "Stotan ...

Trading Places Round 3

December 28, 2020 09:00 - 1 hour - 93.8 MB

We're back with "Trading Places"... this is round 3 of this series. It's like when you have an argument with your best friend about who was the best singer for Van Halen or Deep Purple (both can be found on round 2), or AC/DC (round 1)... and now we've moved a little into the progrock field. Check out the lead singers of Kansas... Genesis... Toto... bet you missed some of them!

The Cutting Edge Summer 2020

November 07, 2020 19:34 - 1 hour - 98.8 MB

The Cutting Edge is back again for another round! This time out, Summer of 2020 and I can't believe how much cool new music there is out... who'd have guessed with the pandemic raging, that recording musicians would be able to generate amazing product like this. All of the music on this show was released during the summer season of 2020. Check out brand new Kansas - been awhile for these guys... brand new stuff from The Jayhawks... new stuff from The Pretenders!! Who? Wow! That's been awhil...

Trading Places 2

October 20, 2020 17:13 - 1 hour - 126 MB

One of your favourite bands replaces the lead singer; could be his heart's not in it anymore... could be he doesn't want to tour anymore... maybe he died... maybe he no longer gets along with the rest of the band. It doesn't really matter the reason - it happens all the time. So now what? Now you don't like them anymore, because they've got a new guy? Now they're just a tribute band? What? Like AC/DC? Like Van Halen? Like a thousand others? I don't think so... I say if they're still writing,...

Trading Places 1

July 04, 2020 08:00 - 1 hour - 109 MB

How many times have you heard someone say, "They're just a tribute band now, because..." and mostly it's because the lead vocalist (and maybe others as well) has left the band for whatever reason. I say if the band is still recording, then they're still viable... maybe even better... it's happened. On this show and others coming up in the future, I'll present some of the bands who've changed their frontman, lead vocalist and still thrived... there's plenty of them! Just one example to whet y...

The Cutting Edge-Winter 2020

May 24, 2020 20:11 - 1 hour - 93.9 MB

Winter 2020... so much new music here! It was hard to pare this down to a manageable, quarterly episode... I'm all over the map with regards to genre in this show... there's hard rock with new music from Stabbing Westward (finally)... new single releases from Stereophonics and Blue October... some amazing new music from Alanis Morissette... pop from The Weeknd... and some of the best conceptual music from Eminem in a very long time! It all adds up to "you need to hear this stuff"...

Nothing But Time

April 08, 2020 00:35 - 1 hour - 89.6 MB

Check this show out when you have some time... you know, if time allows that is... 'cause I think it's time you did... all in good time... You get the idea I'm sure... this show features some of the many songs focusing on time... some on running out of time... some just focused on the fact that time keeps ticking... there's 11 songs here and every one of them features "time"... every one of them has the word, "time" in the title... as a matter of fact, the first 6 songs are ALL simply call...

Who Wrote That?

March 12, 2020 02:56 - 1 hour - 83 MB

The name of this show is "Who Wrote That?", because you probably don't know... some of your favourite songs, written between 1980 and 2010 were written by 3 songwriters... 1) Desmond Child; 2) Diane Warren; 3) Ian Thomas... find out who wrote these amazing songs... some of the songs on this show are performed by the bands that made them popular... and some... by the writers themselves... and one! is the actual demo that made Bon Jovi stand up and take notice... hearing Desmond Child perform ...

How's that even possible?

Escaping Censorship

January 11, 2020 07:03 - 53 minutes - 49.4 MB

Ever wondered what it would be like to have someone peering over your shoulder, or recording everything you say to deem whether it was fit for human consumption? For everything you write? Songwriters have succumbed to censors time and time again... BUT! There are some who sneak by... and in this episode of GBMSSIC we salute them! Songs by The Kinks, Paul McCartney, Lou Reed, Prince, Rod Stewart, The Police, The Rolling Stones... all great songs... all escaping censorship!

One Hit Wonders Pt. 2

January 04, 2020 10:48 - 1 hour - 59.1 MB

Just like the title says... there's a lot of these and some will surprise. Many of the artists in these shows have gone on to do other things, but in this form - at this time in their career - under this name, they're one hit wonders... see how many you recognize! Remember Ace? Til Tuesday? Argent? Diesel? Donnie Iris? No? Then you need to listen to this show... I'm betting you've heard most of these before, but never knew who was responsible...

What Time Is It?

October 18, 2019 13:13 - 1 hour - 67.1 MB

Hang out with me and check out some slightly off-beat time signatures on a show called, "What Time is it?"... the entire show will be songs that are a little outside the norm, as far as timing goes, but you might not even know it - all written from the "song first" philosophy, so the "out of the box" timing sneaks right in there...

Songwriting 101_Where's That Confounded Bridge?

April 27, 2019 12:40 - 1 hour - 72 MB

One of the most misunderstood parts of a song is the bridge. Some of the descriptions on the internet are pretty funny... the long piano part at the end of Layla by Derek and the Dominos is not a bridge. A beautiful part, sure. Not a bridge. It’s also not “that bit between the verse and chorus... just filling time before getting to the good part... occasionally done so perfectly it even makes the chorus disappointing”... also not a bridge. And not a very good prechorus either, sounds like......

Chicks With Picks

December 18, 2018 13:26 - 57 minutes - 53.1 MB

Alright... Green Beans, Mushroom Soup & Strawberry Ice Cream is jumping into the politically incorrect ring with this show! Sort of... I called this show, "Chicks with Picks"... and for any women who are offended by my use of the word, "Chick", please feel free to refer to me as a "dick", even a "prick" - completely fine with me! But I'm featuring only women on this show (sorry if I've offended any men in doing so...) and only women who play guitar (sorry if I've offended any other musicians...

This Ain't No Silent Movie

November 14, 2018 11:59 - 1 hour - 74.7 MB

Ever wondered what a movie would be like without music? Even prior to 1920 they used music in films... it was performed live... check out Green Beans, Mushroom Soup & Strawberry Ice Cream tomorrow night at 9pm at www.pacificnorthwestradio.com for “This Ain’t no Silent Movie”... because it works the other way around too.
