When Patti Smith took the stage for KCRW's Apogee Sessions a couple of weeks ago, we knew we were in for a very special performance. We share that experience on Morning Becomes Eclectic as Patti and her band perform new songs from her latest recording, Banga, as well as timeless classics, at 11:15am.

KCRW is pleased to thank Bob Clearmountain and Apogee Electronics for helping make KCRW's Apogee Sessions possible
