Off The Record is a music program featuring a weekly interview special along with music news, views, reviews and regular local and overseas correspondents including: Billy Pinnell (on re-releases) and music book reviewer Chris Wilson. Treasures are also unearthed in the mysterious Cellar Of Sound.
The April/May 2010 Off The Record Memphis/Clarksdale/New Orleans trip was a huge success. If you want to join us for Jazz Fest in 2011 please contact us during the program or email Brian (address below).
