Farewell, Ray Manzarek
May 20, 2013 in KRCL Music Blog by KrclAdmin
We’re sad to say that Ray Manzarek, keyboardist and founder of The Doors, passed away today in Germany. He was 74.
In addition to his time with The Doors, Manzarek played in many other bands, recorded a rock adaptation of Carmina Burana with Phillip Glass, and worked with Echo & the Bunnymen, X, Iggy Pop and more. He will be missed
Album of the Day: May 20th
May 20, 2013 in KRCL Music Blog by KrclAdmin
On this day in 1967 the BBC previewed a new album from The Beatles. Just a little something, you may have heard of it…
It’s been said that Brian Wilson from The Beach Boys broke down and cried when he heard this record, he was so devastated it wasn’t his own creation. (Although Paul McCartney has said, in turn, that the orchestral arrangements on Pet Sounds were an inspiration.)
Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band is KRCL’s featured album of the day.

Burrito Project SLC
May 17, 2013 in The Beehive by KrclAdmin
Jorge Fierro of Frida Bistro and Rico has taken up the cause of The Burrito Project. Based out of his kitchens, the SLC chapter of the national effort brings on volunteers a few days each week – one crew to make hundreds of rice & bean burritos, and another crew to distribute them to the homeless via bicycle. It’s a nutritious, delicious, and surprisingly easy way to do some real good in our community.

Farewell to World Cafe
May 13, 2013 in Home by KrclAdmin
Thank you to everyone that took our recent programming survey. We appreciate and value your feedback.
It has been a little more than a year since KRCL began broadcasting the nationally syndicated program, World Cafe. The show launched with mixed reviews and although many KRCL listeners love the program, most feel that we should use that time for more locally-curated music programming.
Effective Monday, May 13th, KRCL will no longer air the syndicated program, World Cafe. Fans of the show can still stream it online and can find a link to the show here.
Your feedback and continued support is vital to 90.9fm KRCL!
