This month’s Preservation Sound Radio show has already aired, but you can stream the entire program from the WPKN FM archives for the next few weeks. Click here to stream the show. RITES OF MAY is a three-hour psych-folk celebration of Spring. As usual all of the audio is taken directly from my vinyl LP stacks. This show was transferred with a Technics 1200 w/ Shure 44-7 cartridge and Ramko SP8-E preamp. Bonus announcements via period recordings of Louise Huebner and Dr Edward Teller. Here’s the track list.
