Rock of Ages on UJFM 95.4 - Thursdays 7:00pm to 10:00pm
Benjy Mudie is a self confessed 'rockaholic' with little chance of recovery ... a music obsessive whose entire life has been spent in search of the lost chord ... from discovering Jimi's "Are you experienced" at 13, he has constantly devoured music through lp's, singles, tapes, cds, dvds, books, magazines, film, concerts, radio, tv and the internet. His entire working life has also been music related: from running a record store and later joining WEA Records in the mid 70's through to his 21 year A&R/Marketing stint at Tusk Music where he signed some of the biggest names in South African rock and pop. Since 1999 he has been nurturing new talent at his indie label Fresh Music and reissuing classic albums as part of its ongoing Retro series ... To say that 'music is his first love' (to paraphrase John Miles's classic song) is somewhat understated. Rock of Ages is the A-Z of classic rock: from early 60`s psych ,hard rock, prog rock and folk to metal, punk, funk and fusion –the whole nine yards !
