Champagne & Reefer



On Handful of Brains (originally aired 06/06/2020 7 – 9 PM on WRIR 97.3 FM Richmond Independent Radio): I don’t recommend Champagne & Reefer for everyone during this quarantine, but it’s certainly worked for me. OK, substitute cheap beer for champagne. I’m not that high-falutin’. On tonight’s eclectic mix of music, I’ve got tunes from All Them Witches, The Jerry Garcia Band, Jeff Beck, John Prine, Muddy Waters, Nzca Lines, Shovels and Rope, Sunglasses, Roy Clark, Yes and more!
