D-Sides, Orphans & Oddities

D-Sides, Orphans & Oddities

Saturdays at 6:00 pm

Hi! I’m local gadabout and international recording artist Gilbert Neal and I’m bringing the strange when I share my collection of “D-Sides, Orphans and Oddities” with you good people on WHUP-FM, Saturday nights at 6 PM. Everything from the failures of the famous to the fabled by the fameless…

Nothing is out of bounds! Rock, soul, disco, song-poems, the occasional artist feature…live performances and interviews…all tied together by my ill-placed reverence for pop history. I’m focusing almost exclusively on the years between 1965 and 1980.

So don’t worry—there’ll be Osmonds! There’s some amazing music that you’ve never heard and it’s my job to bring it to you. Also, there’s going to be some terrible stuff that no one asked for. It’s all a rich tapestry. So listen to my show, “D-Sides, Orphans, and Oddities” Saturday nights at 6 on WHUP-FM 104.7, Hillsborough.
