On this episode of the Richard Crouse Show we\u2019ll meet Bill Welychka. Fans of Much Music and MuchMoreMusic will remember Bill as the longest serving VJ on those channels, including a long stint as the host of the channel's country music series Outlaws & Heroes. These days Bill is still working in broadcast television, and has recently written a book about the lessons he learned from hanging out with many of the music industry\u2019s biggest stars. The book is called \u201cA Happy Has-Been (Exciting Times and Lessons Learned by One of Canada\u2019s Foremost Entertainment Journalists.)\u201d \n\nToday we talk about the book, Much Music, and his battles with depression.\n \nThen, we\u2019ll get to know Canadian singer/songwriter, Astrid Young. She is the younger sister of Neil Young, with whom she toured and recorded for many years, and an accomplished musician whose discography dates back to 1984 and boasts over forty releases, including four solo albums and a multitude of credits as a side-musician and background singer. Through the years, Astrid has played stages large and small, from the Whiskey-A-Go-Go in Hollywood to Paradiso in Amsterdam, Brazil's Rock in Rio, and everywhere in between. Today we talk about the rerelease of her album \u2018One Night At Giant Rock\u2019 and some new songs, including \u201cLay Me Down (Borrowed Tune),\u201d which I can\u2019t stop listening to.
