We have a busy show planned for today. One of the greats of Rock & Roll is today’s featured guest!

Dave Mason has been making music since he was 16. He’s now 76, so that’s a lot of music.

His first big break came as a founding member of Traffic, alongside Steve Winwood. He played on records by greats including Jimi Hendrix, The Rolling Stones and lots of others, and has had a successful solo career, penning song that were hits for others as himself.

With a memoir coming out in May, Dave Mason is still touring. His new “Endgangered Species” Tour kicked off last night in Atlanta. He’s down in Ft. Lauderdale on Wed!
So we’ll wrap up the week with Dave Mason today.

But first, a look back at this weekend in history.
Today is the 2nd anniversary of Joe Biden’s inauguration,.
Tomorrow marks a sad day for freedom of speech. Ten years ago, on January 21, 2013, SCOTUS changed everything with their awful Citizens United ruling, and Air America Radio ended its run on the airwaves. We’ll begin the show with a visit from the man who mostly put Air America together and on the air, Jon Sinton. He’s the same guy who runs Progressive Voices today.
Sunday, January 22 marks the 50th anniversary of SCOTUS ruling in Roe v Wade that legalized abortion until fetal viability. The new Extreme Court just struck that down… what a way to celebrate 50 years of a woman’s right to choose!

During the Dave Mason interview, I played the video of the new recording of “Feelin’ Alright” by The Quarantines. In the middle, I got a copyright notification on my screen, so I stopped it early. Here’s the whole video, because it’s too good to cut off in the middle!
