This is a special edition, with much of the first hour commemorating the April 20 release of the biopic “Marley”. Moheak’sNative Wayne co-hosted. He is known for his syndicated “Alter-Native” reggae program and his creative work with countless major artists. Wayne is a double Grammy winner. Roger Steffens guested during the first hour. He is a foremost authority on all things reggae and on Bob Marley. Wayne latest production project is Lexo the Great. He joined us, mostly in the second hour and we were treated to some of his ace tracks. The Music Meeting airs Thursday nights on Moheak at 7-9p Pacific, 10-12p Eastern.
Roger brought songs from the soundtrack, including the dramatic “Bedroom Tape”, a cover of “Exodus”, and an alternate version of “Jammin”. Lexo played his “School of America”, “Another Day”, and “Taylor Swift”. Other artists played on the show were Kimbra, Alabama Shakes, Jimmy Cliff, 311 (with Wayne rapping), Wild Belle, Azealia Banks, Tanlines, Grand Duchy, and Tom Jones. Due to the special nature of this show, the panel didn’t rate the songs that were played.

The Moheak Radio Music Meeting, our new-music panel show where we rate songs and discuss the industry, airs Thursdays 7-9p Pacific, 10-12p EST. This is the Friday the 13th show. Totally unrelated to the date is that we got a call-in from Thomas Dolby. Rave was Dolby’s first A&R man for the US, and they made a decision together to create a special release for “She Blinded Me With Science”, as the song was written shortly after the album release of “The Golden Age of Wireless”. Thomas and Rave also discussed the recent album “The Map of the Floating City“.
