On an extra-busy Fine Tuning this Sunday I’ll be featuring the exquisite new album from Ray Davies, leader of the Kinks — “Our Country: Americana Act II.” Ray says, “’Our Country’ follows my journey across America; through endless tours not just to reclaim the Kinks’ career, but to rediscover the country that offered me my earliest inspirations.” Also the mix on Fine Tuning will be an interview I taped recently with Britt Daniel, leader of Spoon. That plus a Ron Asheton birthday tribute (the late, great guitarist of the Stooges would’ve been turning 70 next week) and a previously unreleased song by Tom Petty. Fine Tuning: 4 – 6 p.m. Sundays on ann arbor’s 107one.
