[EDGEWISE: 1997: MUSICAL GUESTS: MATTHEW SWEET/BEN HARPER
[edgewise: msnbc 1997: hosted by john hockenberry] [musical guests: matthew sweet/ben harper] strange how that mid part of the 1990's was changing. mtv started playing less and less cutting edge music around mid 1997... but other networks started showcasing better or just engaging, real talent. for a time, msnbc had a weekly current events/music show hosted by this veteran journalist. i liked it a lot. and taped it every week. the show didn't last long though. had some great performances such as matthew sweet and ben harper! nrg
