Fine Tuning preview: 4/6/25

 Tomorrow's Fine Tuning program is dedicated to the memory of my beloved mom, Helen Bandyke, who passed away peacefully on March 29th, her 104th birthday. I was truly blessed and fortunate to have a mom who was so supportive and devoted! This picture of us was taken by my wife Kim Silarski when we took mom out for lunch at M & M Cafe in Dearborn to celebrate her 94th birthday. To give you a little perspective about Helen's extraordinarily long life, she was born right around the time the very first radio station began broadcasting in Michigan!

In the album spotlight on the show I'll feature "That's the Price of Loving Me." the magnificent new recording by Dean Wareham, plus the latest from Lord Huron, Suzanne Vega and Throwing Muses. Fine Tuning: Sundays from 4 to 6 p.m. on ann arbor's 107one.
