When it comes to music; the 90's as you know it really didn't happen until Late 1991. That fall the Grunge Explosion happened and everything from before then just kind of faded into obscurity. But was these music from earlier on that was unjustly forgotten? Is there any hidden gems from before? That's what we're going to look at on this episode. We'll take a look at the singles chart this week 30 years ago and see what's aged well and what was better off forgotten. (Spoiler Alert: There's a lot of the latter).
Part 2 Coming in Fall 2021 (But we will have a new episode next week too)

Now that we're well into January, artists are starting to put out the first new songs of 2021. Will this new crop of songs set the tone for the year? or will the musical patterns of the year before still linger on? Personally I hear something different about these singles.
Featuring discussion on new singles from; Caroline Polachek, Lauv, Ed Sheeran, Kings of Leon, Deadmau5, Justin Beiber, and more.
I want to leave 2020 in the past as much as possible. However, lets take one more look at last year. This week on our Season 2 Premier; Scott Mitchell and I are looking at the first big Billboard Hot 100 of 2020.

The Tim Gavin Show continues into 2021 with Shorter Episodes and more experimenting.
This Episode I look back at one good thing from this year; the innovation in the music industry and the great songs that got released this year. Obviously the pandemic has left the arts in a state of uncertainty but with the stuff that came about because of it maybe things will get better.

We'll also take a look at what music was popular this week in 1982, a year that a good chunk of my vinyl collection came out, and you'll get some suggestions on great progressive rock to listen to.

UnPlugged was in many ways the opposite of what MTV stood for. What inspired it? what made it such a big deal? and what kept it going for so long (in so many different ways)? Well lets talk about it. Learn its history, get some album suggestions, and listen to me and Scott Mitchell talk about what albums were big in 1994.

This year; two different bands decided to cover the Charlie Daniels Band's iconic hit; "The Devil Went Down To Georgia. Neither of those covers are any good IMO, but that being said it got me thinking about what makes that song so great. It was written and recorded in the heat of the moment to complete an album, but there's a lot of history and mythos that went into the song itself and its appeal.
After that, I give you info on some music history surrounding the September 11th attacks. Albums released that day, and a reaction to what happened.

This week is a Follow Up for Previous Episodes; Theatre in A Dangerous Time and Songs Of Summer. Make sure you give those a listen for maximum context. You can still enjoy this on its own though.
On this Episode I have a conversation with Edmonton Drag Performer Ladonna Stone on how Drag can help The Arts adapt to a Pandemic.
Later I take a look at The Billboard Charts in Summer 2009, the year nobody could escape "The Black Eyed Peas".

What even IS a song of summer?
Well it's actually a real certification given to one song by Billboard each summer. The biggest song to chart between May Long and Labour Day (give or take a week or two depending on when that is). Lets explore what it means to be a song of summer, and what I think are the 10 best Songs of Summer.

One thing I really miss doing in Radio is the Music Meetings. Going over new music and predicting what songs would be hits, and having fun finding new artists. Scott Mitchell and I decided to turn this into a Podcast Episode to test out, so let us know what you think. Also because we can't play the songs we talk about, we have links to the songs so you can listen along to them too. All Links are for Youtube unless specified otherwise.
