On this week's Acoustic Highway, we are remembering celebrated singer-songwriter Bob Franke. Franke's career began in the late 60s when he was a student at the University of Michigan, and he began performing at the legendary venue The Ark in Ann Arbor. He would become a staple of the region's music scene. His wonderful 1982 release "One Evening in Chicago" featured a live performance and his song "Thanksgiving Eve" has been covered by several artists. We'll hear several selections from the live album. Also, new music from John Gorka and a heavy dose of local and regional musicians with tracks from Michael Lille, Narissa Bond, and Gerry Laverty. It's The Acoustic Highway. Sunday night at 9 on 89.5
