11/1, 7pm, Ms. Music: Jackie Alper Story
JACKIE ALPER was legend around the Capital Region folk music world, a familiar sight at folk concerts and activist events in the Capital Region recognized for her shirt or vest covered with social justice message buttons. For over two decades, she hosted “Mostly Folk,” WRPI-FM’s popular Sunday afternoon radio show. Her on-air support of folk venues, festivals and artists both known and new helped support one of America’s largest and most vibrant folk/acoustic music communities. Her massive music collection stretched back many decades, and on air she played a wide range of genres. Contemporary and traditional folk, jazz, blues, bluegrass, comedy, swing, Celtic, Gospel, World were anchored by songs by such great progressive musicians (and old friends) NYC: Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Ronnie Gilbert, Paul Robeson, Len Chandler, Bernice Reagan. Often you could hear her interview one of them on the air. Her music was an expression of her belief that our culture can be changed for the benefit of all.
