WRCT: a radio station

Guitar great and seven time Grammy nominee, Steve Morse, returns to WRCT this week for the first time in two years. Considered one of the greatest contemporary rock ‘n’ roll guitarists of all time, Steve was the choice of Deep Purple to replace original guitarist, Ritchie Blackmore, and remained the band’s virtuoso guitarist for 28 years! Prior to that he was the lead guitarist for Kansas and the Dixie Dregs. 

Thursday July 17, Steve joins Eric Jackson Lurie on WRCT’s Court’s In Session to discuss his foray into yacht rock and his new single with heavy metal legend, Thor, on the Cleopatra label.  

In addition, on Thursday, July 17, Eric’s giving away tickets to this summer’s Pittsburgh Blues & Roots Festival and tickets to the Roger Waters movie: This is Not a Drill. Tune in, call in to 412-268-WRCT, and win!

In 1974 the classic Alice Cooper group disbanded. While Alice continued solo, it was the original lineup that released a steady stream of chart topping hits that continue to be played on the radio today. From “Schools Out,” “I’m Eighteen,” and “No More Mr. Nice Guy” to “Billion Dollar Babies,” “Elected,” and “Under My Wheels” — the original band didn’t just shock — they rode the top of the charts!

Tune in to WRCT’s Court’s in Session on Thursday, July 10 at 8:00p.m. when Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame inductee and original Alice Cooper group bassist, Dennis Dunaway, joins your Rockin’ Attorney, Eric Jackson Lurie, to talk about the upcoming Alice Cooper album that reunites the original band for the first full release in 51 years!
