Musical Milestones

Scott chronicles significant anniversaries in the history of popular music on The Musical Milestones.

Based on his popular CBC Radio feature, The Musical Almanac, The Musical Milestones can be heard on Cashbox Radio. 

The Musical Milestones is now also heard in Europe on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

The Musical Milestones begins its fourth year on Cashbox Radio with March – Part 2:

  • The novelty song that was meant to be more than a novelty song

  • The first act to have four #1 hits in a row

  • The marketing gimmick that gave a band its new name

  • How David Clayton Thomas found the band that would make him famous

  • The student poem that became a hit folk song

  • The coup pulled off by a Toronto venue operator

  • The first rock’n’roll concert

  • And the lengths some people will go to to get a great camera shot.
