Show 151: Expo 67 - 45th Anniversary Special




Sunday, April 29 · 6-7 pm PST / 9-10 pm EST  

"Hey friend, say friend… come on over…"

Tune in for a look back at 
the greatest World's Fair in history!

Tour the Expo 67 site, hear sounds and music from various
 Expo pavilions (Man in the Community, Ontario, Labyrinth, 
Trinidad, Tobago & Grenada), 
and from Expo's amusement park, La Ronde.

And be sure to stick around for the highlight of the show: 
11 different versions of the official Expo 67 theme song, 
"Hey Friend, Say Friend/Un Jour, Un Jour." 
We'll hear various versions in French and English, of course, 
as well as instrumentals. You want the folk version? We've got it… 
not to mention the country, surf, stadium organ, 
and fake Tijuana Brass versions too!!! 

Be sure to join the discussion in the chat room 
at LuxuriaMusic.com as you listen. Share an Expo memory, discuss 
the legacy of Expo, hear about Expo's disappearing remains… 
or just talk about the music.

No time to listen "live"? No problem!

See you on the radio… !
