115R St. Patrick’s Day

A show of Irish music and music by Irish artists, old and new, traditional and modern and all things in between.  Fitting in between the two parades, I began to worry that nobody was coming along, but in the end we had a very large crowd and at least 26 listener connections.  Malaclypse was too ill to host so it was a solo show from me, Alan, who was also not very well but managed to keep from coughing during the important bits.

113R Can

Krautrock pioneers, and wonderfully eccentric with it, Can or rather CAN from the Seventies, mostly, with a reunion in the late Eighties. A fascinating selection of music, never mainstream but always interesting, assembled by Hugh, who joined us for the show.

240 Lost in 2023

Our annual season-opener, looking at musicians who’ve gone to their reward in the year gone by.  Lots of big names this time, making it difficult to choose the playlist.  Hope we did well enough for you.
