The Polyester Power Hour is On The Air! This show started off as a one hour feature on Fridays and exploded in popularity.
When I heard of the death of Donna Summer this morning, my thoughts went immediately to my best friend Keith LeBlanc, who lost his battle with cancer two years ago. Keith was a huge fan of "Lady Donna" (as I heard him call her on occasion). Keith opened my eyes to the 'deeper cuts' of Donna Summer, and I owe him for that.
In honor of the Harley Owners Group Rally in Lafayette this weekend, Mike chose a classic from 1968- 'Born to Be Wild' by Steppenwolf. This song has appeared in movies from 'Easy Rider' to 'Mr. Bean's Holiday,' and on television shows including 'Miami Vice' and 'Married…with Children.' Check out this clip from 'The Ed Sullivan Show.'
Ever wonder what goes on in our studio during the Polyester Power Hour? This is what it sounds like from where I sit when CJ is jamming in his squeaky chair. You'll notice he has on his headphones so he can't hear it squeaking!

One of the most requested songs on the Halloween edition of the Polyester Power Hour and on Friday the 13th is 'Marie Laveau' by Bobby Bare. It is a great song about a woman who lived down in the swamps of Louisiana named Marie Laveau. Over the years she has been labeled a witch and thought to have practiced voodoo.
Friday, April 13th, CJ and Debbie Ray turn the morning show into a Friday the 13th Polyester Power. CJ and Deb will cast the spotlight on songs with a superstitious, mysterious, Marie Laveau like feel.
Don't miss the Polyester Power this week- we'll do it on Thursday instead of Good Friday! If you don't have your radio, listen live on your computer or via RadioPup.
