I'M THE MIGHTY FAVOG, and welcome to Revolution 21 . . . and its freeform show, 3 CHORDS & THE TRUTH. 3 Chords & the Truth is good music and a good time. 3C&T shares the Revolution 21 empire with Revolution 21's Blog for the People, which -- like the show -- is a mixture of . . . EVERYTHING. The serious and the foolish. Rock . . . and roll. And blues in the night.

3 Chords and the Truth: <i>Is this thing </i>(cough)<i> on?</i>
This edition of 3 Chords & the Truth is brought to you by a 60-something-year-old RCA KN-1A pressure microphone . . . and the croaking, hacking crud.
Trust me, the music on this week's edition of the Big Show sounds better than I do. It ain't even close because, of course, the music on the program always sounds great.
And a host who sounds like he's 85 going on eternity at least should benefit from the vintage "golden age of radio" warmth of a cool, old microphone.Yes, it all started at a 20-watt FM station in Baton Rouge, La. . . .I KNOW, I know. Knock it off, Ted Baxter!And stop the radio-gear geekery while you're at it.
Message heard. Now about the music. . . .
Well, we have a little of everything on this 3 Chords & the Truth, spanning much of the 20th and a little of the 21st centuries. That includes a jazz band of future legends led by a dude playing a comb.
We also get our tie dye on, then jam with the Night Tripper a bit later on the show. And we got 78s. More than our share of 78s.
And that's about it. I need to go hack up a lung now.
It's 3 Chords & the Truth, y'all. Be there. Aloha.
