Steve Palec's ROCK 'N ROLL ROOTS - since 1987 Sundays 9am-Noon on 'KLH
"The ideas are intriguing but it's the unpredictability and sheer sense of serendipity that makes the show fly. Part of that is obviously a dividend of the jumbled mind of Steve Palec."
- Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
"Music guru Steve Palec's Rock & Roll Roots is one of the best in the business."
- Milwaukee Magazine
Hosted by Milwaukee radio veteran Steve Palec, ROCK 'N ROOTS is a three hour audio magazine with a featured artist and three 1/2 Hour "mini articles".
It's live, unpredictable, lots of interviews and live guests, often educational, always entertaining and filled with great music... including lots of artists and songs you haven't heard for a long time!
