Stuart McLean Every weekend more than 700,000 people tune in to CBC radio’s The Vinyl Cafe to hear Stuart McLean, one of Canada's most beloved storytellers and humourists. The Vinyl Cafe radio show is based on Stuart's visits to "the world's smallest record store," where he picks up an eclectic selection of recorded music and some neighbourhood gossip from Dave, the store's eccentric owner. Stuart spins the gossip into short stories, which he interweaves with fascinating music selections. In addition to hosting The Vinyl Cafe, Stuart is also an accomplished author and an award-winning journalist. His books The Morningside World of Stuart McLean (1989), Welcome Home: Travels in Small Town Canada (1992), Stories from the Vinyl Cafe (1995), When We Were Young: A Collection of Canadian Stories (1996), Home from the Vinyl Cafe (1998), The Vinyl Cafe Unplugged (2000) and The Vinyl Cafe Diaries (2003) have all been Canadian bestsellers. Both Home from the Vinyl Cafe and Vinyl Cafe Unplugged have received the prestigious Stephen Leacock Award for Humour. Since 1998, Stuart has taken The Vinyl Cafe show on the road across Canada. In addition to Stuart’s humourous storytelling, these live concert performances also showcase the wonderful talents of Canadian musicians. http://www.cbc.ca/vinylcafe FALL TOUR 2010 MON.
