Guest Feature: Steve Ferguson Archive program hosted by Howard Larman


Tonight we'll be paying tribute to singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Steve Ferguson, who recently passed away, with a program from the archives which originally aired on 3-1-98. On this broadcast, he is joined by Jennifer Warnes. Not to be confused with the Steve Ferguson who played guitar with NRBQ; this Steve Ferguson released an eponymous album on Asylum Records in 1973.  Jennifer Warnes, The Carpenters, Andrew Gold, and others covered his songs. He also played piano and electric piano on albums by Rod Taylor, Wendy Waldman, and Poco.
