80’s Music Rules ~ More from Retrospect CFRC-FM ~ The End of an Era ~ 5-15-12

It is with a very heavy heart that I write this last entry for Retrospect. Ed-FM is moving far from the CFRC broadcast booth for a work-related position. It’s a wonderful event for him, and a sad one for his listeners. We wish Ed-FM all the very best after giving more than 12 years to … Continue reading

Ed promised to make up last week’s absence to us, and he never goes back on a promise!

Ed-FM was sharing the extended love tonight with several tunes topping the 6-minute mark (some even easily doubling it). That’s what’s so great about Ed-FM’s Retrospect show–even though you may have previously heard a song Ed plays, chances are you may never have heard the longer mix because commercial radio tends to frown on such … Continue reading

When Ed-FM goes shopping, we all benefit. This week, he came home with armfuls of obscure treasures from a bin-diving trip up north that he plans to share with us over the next few broadcasts. Feels like Christmas in March, it does! Tune in to Ed and his “shop ’til I drop” 80’s Retrospect show … Continue reading

Hallelujah! Ed-FM is back. It’s been a long dry spell without our weekly fix of 80s obscurity, but Ed followed the crumb-trail back to the station, and cheerfully filled our ears with the overlooked, but fabulous 80s music we crave. Thank you Ed for all that you do…now stay put for a while! Tune in … Continue reading

Tuesday night’s as good as any to get a little crazy. Obscurely crazy, that is. Ed was spinning obscurity out of control, vinyl flying everywhere! But, we wouldn’t have it any other way. Don’t believe it? Check out the playlist, then join us in three weeks – Ed’s going on a well-deserved break. We’ll be … Continue reading

The heat continues across the continent, and sometimes I really think Ed-FM is single-handedly the reason. “Everything’s Gone Green” describes the eco-friendly natural wattage he produces every Tuesday from Kingston, Ontario. Don’t believe it? Give it a listen for yourself. Tune in to Ed and his “not afraid of obscure” 80’s Retrospect show on CFRC-FM … Continue reading
