The interview will air on Monday, April 6, 2026, at 11:00 pm EEST and again on Tuesday, April 7, 2026, at 1:00 pm EEST on “The Flower Power Hour with Ken and MJ.”

For listeners who love the spirit of the late ’60s and the rich musical crossroads of psychedelic rock, blues, folk, and classic album radio, this is a broadcast not to be missed. David Bennett Cohen has spent more than six decades in music, building a remarkable career as a keyboard player, guitarist, songwriter, teacher, and performer. He is especially celebrated for his innovative playing with Country Joe and the Fish, one of the defining bands of the San Francisco scene, and for later collaborations that extended into blues, roots, and rock history.

This special feature fits perfectly with “The Flower Power Hour with Ken and MJ,” the internationally syndicated show that celebrates the golden age of flower power with music from the ’60s, ’70s, and early ’80s, while also weaving in artist liners, interviews, and a strong peace-and-love spirit. Heard on over 150 stations in 18 countries, the show has built a reputation for thoughtful programming and deep respect for the artists and the era it celebrates.

In this upcoming conversation, BluesWave Radio listeners will have the chance to hear from a musician whose story runs through some of the most fascinating chapters of American rock history. From the psychedelic pulse of Berkeley to the broader landscape of blues and roots music, David Bennett Cohen brings both authenticity and experience to every discussion.
