Please Support Why Hunger

 In 1975, the late Harry Chapin and Bill Ayres founded Why Hunger, an organization whose goal was to put an end to hunger suffered by 49 million Americans and nearly 1 billion people worldwide. That same year, they came up with an idea to reach out for donations and aid using the power of the music and the radio. In conjunction with WNEW-FM, the leading rock station in America at the time, they launched Hungerthon, a 24 hour radio broadcast designed to raise awareness about the issue of hunger in the United States. Live music from rock artists concerned with this serious problem became a staple of each Hungerthon broadcast. Hungerthon has been an annual even since 1985, held right around Thanksgiving.  I heard my first Hungerton Broadcast on WNEW in 1986 and have been donating ever since.

So, in this month when we feast to celebrate all that we have been blessed with in life, please think of those who go hungry and give to WhyHunger. You can donate here. Or you can buy my book - I'm donating 25% of my sales to Whyhunger this month.

Please Support Why Hunger

In 1975, the late Harry Chapin and Bill Ayres founded Why Hunger, an organization whose goal was to put an end to hunger suffered by 49 million Americans and nearly 1 billion people worldwide. That same year, they came up with an idea to reach out for donations and aid using the power of the music and the radio. In conjunction with WNEW-FM, the leading rock station in America at the time, they launched Hungerthon, a 24 hour radio broadcast designed to raise awareness about the issue of hunger in the United States. Live music from rock artists concerned with this serious problem became a staple of each Hungerthon broadcast. Hungerthon has been an annual even since 1985, held right around Thanksgiving.  I heard my first Hungerton Broadcast on WNEW in 1986 and have been donating ever since.

So, in this month when we feast to celebrate all that we have been blessed with in life, please think of those who go hungry and give to WhyHunger. You can donate here. Or you can buy my book - I'm donating 25% of my sales to Whyhunger this month.

Eric Clapton & Steve Winwood - 2011-11-19 - Yokohama. Japan (IEM) 

Clapton & Winwood 2011 - Same Tour, Different Show Double Play - #1: Few bands stayed together for less time, yet produced as lasting a legacy, as did Blind Faith. They recorded one album, which when released in August 1969, immediately went to #1 on the Billboard charts. They toured in support of the album that same month, the band's only live performances, except for their debut gig in Hyde Park in July. Since the group had less than an hour's worth of material, they also had to play tunes from Eric Clapton's days with Cream and Steve Winwood's time with Traffic. Eric was unhappy that the band seemed to be evolving into Cream, part 2, and by October, Blind Faith was no more. With the exception of 1973’s Rainbow Concert, Clapton and Winwood would not reunite for a live performance for almost 4 decades. Then, on May 19, 2007, about halfway through Winwood's set at the UK’s Country Side Rocks Festival, EC strolled on stage to recreate history. That night's collaboration was followed up by appearances together at Clapton's Crossroads Festival in July 2007, 3 nights at Madison Square Garden in February 2008 and joint tours in 2009, 2010 & 2011. This IEM recording captures the duo during the 2011 tour, in Japan on November 19, 2011, 11 years ago today, Download this one, then come back on November 26 for part 2 of this Same Tour, Different Show Double Play.
