Wednesday's MEDICINE BALL CARAVAN on KRVS (11am-noon Central Standard on 88.7FM locally or krvs.org) kicks off with a slew of recent recordings out of the Big Easy from King James & the Special Men, The Creole String Beans, Flow Tribe and Morning 40 Federation. Next: a mini-tribute to Adam ("Batman") West before beginning our celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Monterey International Pop Festival (which will continue on to Thursday's program).
