On this day in 2010 Andy Olson started a new project as a companion to his already succesful free form internet radio station Radio Free Phoenix. His idea was an oldies station that played more than just the same library of 100 songs over and over again. DEEP OLDIES was born. Here we are 13 years later still rocking, hoppin’ and be-boppin’ the internet airwaves with an ever growing list of not just the classics but also a mix of album cuts, deep tracks and b sides you would never hear on those broadcast stations. With a great mix of specialty shows on the weekends, Deep Oldies is certainly a one of a kind radio station. Thank you to all the volunteers that have manned their stations and helped us stay on the air during the last 13 years. But more important, thanks to our loyal listeners for continuing to tune in day after day. And best yet, we are and always will be commercial free…..

KEEP ON ROCKIN’ – THE DEEP OLDIES STAFF

Jeff Beck, known as one of the most admired and influential guitarists in rock history, died on Tuesday January 10th, 2023. He was 78 years old.

One of the early members of the band the Yardbirds, a band known for always having great guitarists, he replaced Eric Clapton. He himself was later replaced by Jimmy Page. When he left the Yardbirds he formed the Jeff Beck Band with fellow musicians Rod Stewart and Ron Wood. He also for a short time was a member of the superband “Beck Bogert Appice” with Tim Bogert and Carmine Appice both former members of Vanilla Fudge

Many people claimed when Jeff Beck played, he was speaking to you.

REST IN PEACE JEFF BECK, YOUR MUSIC LIVES FOREVER
