My Place: Pop Songs About Birds - Part One
Saturday, 04/18/09 8pm
The arrival of springtime brings with it the return of migrating birds to the north country. American popular music over the years has dealt with many topics, including our feathered friends. This week, Joel Najman's "My Place" program features hit pop songs written about or dealing with birds, ranging from the WWII years through the first golden decades of the rock&roll era. Joel Najman's "My Place" program is heard Saturday evenings from 8-9PM following "A Prairie Home Companion" on Vermont Public Radio.
