OUTLAW COUNTRY on the Thursday Night Feature, Thursday 9 p.m.-midnight
On this week's Thursday Night Feature, gather round your radio to 
explore the distinct and influential movement in country music we know 
as Outlaw Country.  A distinct break from Nashville's produced sound, 
these artists (many Texas-based) fused neo-traditonal country music with 
rock, soul and r&b's swagger and edge to capture the essence of the 
outlaw sound.  Tune in for a fun night of tunes from artists such as 
Wille Nelson, Jerry Jeff Walker, Waylon Jennings, Kinky Friedman and 
more.

BASCOM LAMAR LUNSFORD on Hell or High Water, Sunday 1-2 p.m.
On this week's Hell or High Water - Bascom Lamar Lunsford, minstrel of 
the Appalachians.  We'll hear ballads and more as recounted by heart 
from Lunsford, who traveled his native Appalachians by horse so that he 
might visit every last holler and cove and hear every song
or tale.

ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT, "Three Years, Five Months, and Two Days in the 
Life of…" on the Classic Inside Track, Sunday 2-3 p.m.
Arrested Development's sound was a fusion of soul, hip-hop, pop, blues, 
and funk, coupled with politically conscious lyrics dealing with such 
topics as poverty, race-relations, violence, and evolution. Their 
pinnacle 1992 album, "3 Days, 5 Months, and 2 Days in the Life of..." 
has sold over 4 million copies in the decade since its release, yet has 
lost none of the biting wit, melodic feeling, or assertiveness rare to 
most rap music of its time.  As its tenth birthday approaches, this 
album, one of the most original and compelling rap albums of the early 
nineties, will be commemorated by the gang here at WXYC.  Look forward 
to hearing hits like "Tennessee," "Mr Wendel," and a remake of Sly and 
the Family Stone's "Everyday People." 

Timely topics with TODD & BILL on Northern Hemisphere Live, 
Sunday 5-7 p.m.
This Sunday NHL's Todd and Bill will host an open show with sundry 
topics relating to the current events of the day. Listeners are invited
