This Day Of The Deadcast continues from what we did on The Lovecast Day Of The Dead Jazz Funeral but this time we feature recently deceased musicians of note with backgrounds in other genres of music, such as punk, blues, new wave, rhythm & blues, post punk, hip hop, calypso, folk, rockabilly, surf rock, reggae, and much more.

October 7 2023 - The A Is For Abstract Version - The Lovecast with Dave O Rama - CIUT FM 
Sometimes we use themes here on The Lovecast to keep the musical selection interesting. This week the theme I decided go with is incredibly random, and yet randomness can also be inspiring. This past week I decided to make an attempt to start editing one of my many music archives. It became obvious very quickly that it will take me many lifetimes to sort out all the music that passes through my personal database as it took me a couple of days just to get through the A's in one of my many music archives. So, with that brush with reality I decided that all the artists and bands that I play on the show today will have names that begin with A. And this week on The Lovecast "A" is for Abstract.
