Radio Free D’ni

Welcome to Radio Free D’ni!

Welcome to the homepage of Radio Free D’ni. You will find here both our current announcements and our past playlists. Our links to the music stream are at the top, just above this post.

Generally speaking, we present a new show every other week, at 1300 KI time, with remastered versions of our shows from five years ago in the intermediate weeks. We have pre-show music usually starting 30 minutes earlier (so getting on the stream at 12:30 KI time might be a good idea), and also a good bit of music after the show proper.

13:00 KI is 8 pm in the UK, 9 pm in CET. KI time is Mountain Time in the US, and it follows DST… I can only assume that when Victor Laxman got the KI’s working again he synch’d them to surface time in New Mexico…

Off the Beatles Track

This week’s show will concern itself with the bits one rarely hears by that band one constantly hears, the Beatles. For the historically inclined, there will be bits that contain the absolute Best drumming, er Peter Best’s drumming on record, before he was replaced with Ringo Starr.

Steely Dan, part 2

Since we did the first part of our history of Steely Dan week before the last, we thought it might be a good idea to also broadcast the second part, which we will do this Sunday.

224 Gordon Lightfoot

A show prompted by my hearing of his passing, and being a long time fan of his music.  Something a little different to our usual fare. and mostly short tracks, so a lot of different things.  I didn’t try to avoid the big hits this time, they are too much a part of his music.  We covered most of the hits anyway, some in the pre and postshow sets, and some of his less well known stuff.  Covering a sixty year career and twenty-one albums, we went through the highs and lows and hit the highlights too.

The Rick Beato podcast I mentioned is linked below

Gordon Lightfoot

Well, Mr. Lightfoot passed away a few weeks ago, and we looked back and found to our surprise that we had so far not made a show about him, so this week we will correct this severe oversight and present the work of Gordon Lightfoot.

092R Steely Dan, part 1

A show where I was hard put to reduce the content to just two hours, being a big fan of this band and their two headline artists, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen.   A set of my favourite tracks for the most part, and it did go down quite well with the audience too.

The postshow set finished with Larry Carlton’s Room 335, a composition inspired by Jay Graydon’s solo on Peg and using the song’s chord sequence.

Steely Dan, part 1

This week, we will have a look at Steely Dan’s first outings and into the late 1970s. Hence “part 1,” part 2 to follow in a fortnight.

223 Kings

To tie in with the only Coronation of a British monarch that most of us can remember, our subject was Kings with a side serving of royalty and a couple of cheeky Charlies.

Kings

In the aftermath of the first coronation in the British Isles in over seventy years, this week’s topic will be, obviously, Kings.
