One of my favorite Bruce Springsteen tunes, and that is “Glory Days.” Welcome to mentalhealthradio.ca. You’re listening to the Langdon Auger Show. We are here until 7 p.m. tonight, Mountain Standard Time. It’s Wednesday, the 18th of March. Can you believe it? It’s already halfway through March. Spring starts in two days. It’s official now. No more words about it. It’s official: Friday is the first day of spring. There we go. The gopher was right: six more weeks of winter, and then it would be spring, and he was right. Anyway, welcome to the show. Thanks for tuning in. Let’s get right into the music, shall we?

Taking your way back there with the roots of country. Most definitely, George Jones and “White Lightning.” The Four Seasons in before that with “December 1963.” “Oh, What a Night!” And Blue’s Image started off with “Ride, Captain Ride.” It’s 11 minutes after 5. Thanks for tuning in, everybody. We are here on our Wednesday show.

Tomorrow night’s show will be a later start, starting at 8 p.m. Mountain Standard Time until 10 p.m. We’re not sure if there’s going to be a theme or not tomorrow. Maybe just a little bit different music than what we play during Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesdays. Still one of those things I haven’t figured out yet, so bear with me. But if you want, tune in tomorrow night at 8 p.m. Mountain Standard Time. Back to the music.

Music, of course. That is B.B. King and “The Thrill Is Gone.” Bob Dylan in before that with “The Times They Are a-Changin’.” The Go-Go’s as well, with “Our Lips Are Sealed.” And we started that set off with Kenny Rogers, “Reuben James,” which, believe it or not, was supposedly a true story. It’s not necessarily true. Look it up!

How y’all doing? It’s 26 minutes after 5, and we want to thank you for tuning into the Langdon Auger Show. Of course, we do this Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, starting at 5 p.m. Mountain Standard Time right through till 7 p.m. Mountain Standard Time. And then we do a show on Thursday. It’s a little bit later, starts at 8 p.m. But yeah, we’re here four days a week, playing music, hopefully making your day just a little bit better. And we do take requests as well. So if you know how to get down into our live chat there, just enter your username, save it, come on in, chat with us. Robin right now is here. She’s made shepherd’s pie and breakfast casserole already today. It’s a very good day. Let’s continue on with a great tune from The Knack.

To 1977 with a song that’s themed about being on the road, traveling, being a rock and roll band, and just some of the trials and tribulations. Before that, 1978, from the “You Can Tune a Piano, But You Can’t Tune a Fish” album, REO Speedwagon and “Roll with the Changes.” We started off with The Knack and “Good Girls Don’t,” and the big song off that album was, of course, “My Sharona.” How are y’all doing? It’s 20 minutes to six o’clock. Thanks again for tuning in. We’re going to be here until 8 p.m. Mountain Standard Time. We’re going to be playing music and hopefully doing a little chit-chatting along the way. Let us know if you do want to hear anything. We’re going to continue on with some great music, starting with this one.

That is The Clash, and “Should I Stay or Should I Go?” And before that, we had the Fabulous Thunderbirds with “Powerful Stuff.” And, of course, Jimmie Vaughan, one of the founders of that band, has a pretty famous brother, and you might recognize the name: Stevie Ray Vaughan. That’s right, they’re brothers. Started off with Steve Earle and “Copperhead Road,” which in 2023 was officially named the 11th official song of the state of Tennessee. That’s right, and it’s also from the “Copperhead Road” album, believe it or not. Just weird coinkydinks. Anyway, we’re almost at our dance portion of the show, so we got to do a little countryfied, just because there are some great country tunes out there. So let’s get right to that.

56:17

[Recorded interlude omitted.]

01:06:36

From the 2017 album “This One’s for You,” that is Luke Combs with “Hurricane.” Alan Jackson in before that with “Gone Country,” and we started off with a little Alabama. “I’m in a Hurry,” and I don’t know why. I know why we’re in a hurry. It’s the dance portion of the show. We want to get to it before it gets on too late. And look at this, it’s already four minutes after six, so we’re going to give you a bit of time to get warmed up and hydrated. So right after this next tune by Canned Heat, the dance portion of the show starts, so get ready for it.

01:08:17

[Interlude or untranscribed audio.]

01:16:48

And that is, of course, Van Halen with “Dance the Night Away.” The Kinks in before that with “Come Dancing.” Started off that set with Canned Heat and “On the Road Again.” That was your dance portion of the show. I hope you got out there and got a little movement going. You know, got the arms going, got a little blood flowing. Hopefully you did that. Was it just about 15 minutes after 6? Thanks, everybody, for tuning in. We’re going to continue on with some of the great music. I really like this band. They’re just a bunch of fun. And I hope you, too. It’s Chumbawamba, and “I’m Not Sorry.” I was having fun.

01:25:00

This is Chicago. Great song from them. [Timing uncertain.]

01:28:00

Asking that timeless question: “Does anybody really know what time it is?” I do. It’s 26 minutes after 6. In before that, we had Peter Gabriel, “Solsbury Hill.” Great song from him. Chumbawamba. “I’m Not Sorry.” I was just having fun. Well, we are almost out of here. Thanks, everybody, for tuning in. We are done tomorrow night. We’ll start the show at 8 o’clock instead of 5 o’clock, like we normally do on Monday, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. Come on by. Oliver is usually here. Robin stops in quite often. Have a little chit-chat. Right now we’re talking about breakfast casseroles. So good. So good. Let’s get back to the music.

01:28:38

[Interlude or untranscribed audio.]

01:37:22

That’s The Rolling Stones with one of many of their songs they had between 1964 and 1971. They had massive tunes between that time. That’s “Jumpin’ Jack Flash.” Speaking of 1971, The Who’s “Meaty, Beaty, Big and Bouncy” came out in 1971. And we heard “Magic Bus.” Started off with The Beatles, from their “Revolver” album, and “Eleanor Rigby.” It’s 25 minutes left in the show. Thanks, everybody, for tuning in. We’re going to continue on with some great music. This one is, I don’t know, I really love this song, but it seems to have been forgotten from “A Night at the Opera.” So you let me know what you think of this one.

01:38:03

[Audio not transcribed.]

01:45:00

Of course, that is Michael Jackson with “Black or White.” [Timing uncertain.]

01:49:24

In before that, we had John Stewart with “Gold,” with special vocals on that by Stevie Nicks. And we started off with Queen and one of those they now call bonus tracks off “A Night at the Opera.” But there were so many great songs. There was “39,” “Sweet Lady,” obviously, “Seaside Rendezvous.” Those songs just seem to be forgotten about. We can’t forget about great songs like that. Well, we’re almost at the end of our show. I’ve got time for one more set. And we’re going to try playing some Juice Newton. How about that?

01:49:54

[Audio not transcribed.]

02:00:46

Taking you all the way back to 1976, one of the biggest songs of that year for sure. Al Stewart and “Year of the Cat.” We also had Journey in there with “Lovin’, Touchin’, Squeezin’.” Juice Newton started off the set with “Queen of Hearts.”

Well, thanks for tuning in, everybody. I want to wish you a happy mental health, and hopefully you’ll come back tomorrow night, starting at 8 p.m. and listen in again. But for right now, I’m out of here. Thanks for tuning in. And we’re gonna have one more song for you before we go. Nilsson with “Everybody’s Talkin’.”
