From Memphis to Merseyside Ep 20 ‘Clearly Canadian’

Canadian content rules in radio did not come into effect until the 1970s, but there was still a rich history of Canadian rock and roll and pop music prior to that. On today’s episode of From Memphis to Merseyside, we take a look at Canadian acts from the 1950s and 1960s. Some of these songs will surprise you, as a lot of people thought they were from America. One act even tried to pass themselves off as British, even though they were from St. Catharines, Ontario! We’ve got great behind the scenes stories, and a fantastic playlist, waiting for you this week on From Memphis to Merseyside. Thanks for listening!
